Nissan Patrol 2012: 3-litre differential issues
Nissan spokesman, Peter Fadeyev, replies: "Nissan replaced the diff-lock solenoid and diff-lock actuator on Mr Antoney's vehicle under its New Vehicle Warranty. More than 18 months later the customer sought a replacement differential but the problem was not due to a manufacturing fault so it was not repaired or replaced by Nissan. As the original differential problem was not repairable under the terms of his car's warranty, and the replacement differential was a second-hand unit and not replaced by an authorised Nissan workshop, Nissan is unable to reimburse Mr Antoney for its cost".
