Looking at buying a early 90's Nissan Patrol, and it has an automatic gearbox.
I have never had an 4x4 with an auto. Does anybody know if Nissan have problems with their autos in their 4x4? |

hope i helped a bit. p.s. if it's a 3 litre petrol (carby RB30) stay the hell away from it, WAY underpowered (especially in an auto), and probably shagged out. -Stu |

Yeah my sis has a 3.0 GQ Manual and its defeninitly underpowered for a car of that size. Good car however, if I were to buy a 4WD of that size, Patrol would be my first choice.

Nissan are well known for the quality of there gearboxes and diff's in the 4x4 world. Both 4x4 clubs I belonged too had late and early model nissans in them and their owners had never had any problems with them. Lifting was also not a problem.

Thanks guy's, I will look at the other sites.
I would not buy the 3 lt as per what you guys said they are under powered. I need the patrol for towing the boat so it would have to have the big six. |
