Nissan Patrol GU/Y61 Thread

[cox]

The first release of the the GU Patrols were the ones with problems (01-03/04?).The 2006 4x4 at home already has 80,000kms on it and never had problems outside of its defective clutch when it was brand new (which UMC replaced).

wow sir 80k na ok ah, matipid ba sa diesel yun super safari? automatic ba sayo sir yun pinalitan ng casa?

M/T and the FC is around 8km/L in city driving. Highway hits around 11km/L-12km/L but if you drive it hard, it drops to around 10km/L. I'm dont know the consumption of the a/t but Otep can probably give feedback on that since he has two in the garage... and laging nasa garage.

In contrast, the LC80 m/t gets around 7km/L in city driving and 10km/L on the highway. Sarap i-floor lagi :D

Haha. Im getting around 7 km per liter in the rare times that i drive one. Thats city driving. =)

Worst was 5km per liter in a very bad traffic riddled week.

Matipid? Hindi, hindi po matipid. Hindi po binibili ang Super Safari dahil sa kanyang tipid o sa kanyang bilis.

Hey guys where do you usually have your rigs intercooller checked? I'm suspecting mine to have a leak..

I take it to a radiator shop.

hi mga sir ask ko lang yun nissan patrol started ng 1997 diba? so up to now they are producing it? so puro facelift lang? how about the engine? ano year model na ang walang problems? and yun diesel 3.0 4x4 up to now ganun pa din ba sa 2012? same engine?

Got an 07 super safari 4.8L V6 gas. I'm already thinking of selling it because of its gas consumption. Does anyone know if i can possible convert this to a diesel engine? And which shop can do it? Thanks

The y61 gu was released locally in 2001. But yes it was launched in 98.

Anything after 05 is pretty safe. The 01's were the least reliable.

Yes, the current super safari still uses the same chassis and engine. Toyota still sells the land cruiser 70 series and it was launched in 1984. So if it aint broke, dont mess with it. Hehe.
