Hi - The problem i've got is that my 2005 2.5 diesel pathy does not like to start very well. I've had a new battery and new glow plugs but to no avail. It will take around 5 seconds to start, then will some of the time idle rough and stall. I've had a local garage take a look and the can't seem to put a finger on the issue.

Your help will be much appreciated -thanks :)

Glad you found us, but to be honest, most on the forum are from North America. Perhaps a section should be made for global diesels to accommodate others. Diesel questions do pop up occasionally.

I would think that if Nissan would offer a diesel alternative on this side of the pond, it would sell well, but the powers that be must be squishing those thoughts. Sadly, we over here must be content with the poor performance/economy of ethanol laced gasoline.
