G'day all
Well as topic says I'm in need of adjustment of clutch on my 99 navara dual cab,
its the 4x4 with the qd32 4 cyl 3.2 normaly aspirated diesel.
Cant get manual for it anywhere, except bout $800 from Nissan, n that's not a go.
Need to try adjust the clutch, its not slipping but the take up is right at top of travel, so was wondering if anyone can advise on how to adjust it?
Thanks

If I was a betting man I would say your clutch is stuffed, it might be a good idea to find a good mechanic to do your maintenance and repairs...... if a clutch cable/rod is adjustable it's pretty easy to work it out.
Most clutches are non adjustable...... either they work or they don't....... if they don't then they are stuffed unless something else is causing the problem.
If a clutch cable has stretched it is usually hard to get into gears and you will get this crunching noise changing gears....... if you had a clutch cable and from the problem you have described it would indicate the cable is too tight or it has shrunk...
Stop on a
hill and put it in fourth gear, give it some revs and see if it will pull away...... if it does you clutch is OK and if it slips it's past it use by date.
