In a recent trip in my 3l turbo diesel GU Patrol I had the top rubber hose connectng the intercooler to the turbo blow off its mounting onto the actual alloy intercooler intake. This occurred twice under fairly high revs (in the order of 3.5K to 4K). After the second time I've been reticent to push the revs over 3K until it's been check out by the Nissan dealer. Luckily I was back on the black top and on my way home!
The vehicle was bought in July 2000 and has done 35,000 kms. Prior to taking it back I was wondering if any other forum reader has had a similar experience.
