Keeping Terranos alive
1 Attachment(s)
Just undergoing major surgery on rusty sills, replacing inner and out skins both sides. Why did Nissan route the sunroof drain pipes inside the sills at production? :confused:

There are worse drain routes
TBH a lot car manufacturers have sunroof drains into the sills, some drains go into the rear quarter wing / quarter panel as well.
Most sill corrosion is from condensation rather than from the sun roof drain or simple water ingress. |

Good to see you straight in tackling the nasty jobs right away :naughty Have you had your SWB for a while? or have you just purchased it recently for the winter or some off road action? :naughty |
Welcome aboard and as said great to see someone repairing the sills rather than just bining the car. It’s a common repair but once done it’ll be fine for many years.

Thanks for the welcome. I have had the Terrano 2 since 2011 and had loads of work done to keep it in really good shape. Gearbox, Clutch, sunroof, glow plugs, water pump, full exhaust etc. But the SWB models are rare now and it drives so well. Just want to keep it - anyway, it looks a bit like the new Defender 90 @£45K!!

Yes mate warm welcome, and keep going with those repairs, Rick

Only thing you might need to do is wire in a hazzard light switch if your current head unit has it built in:nenau |
As elty says I’ve not had a problem with NATS after fitting a normal stereo.
The hazard light switch can be a pain unless you get the radio facia with the switch fitted and hmmm I just happen to have one that I’m going to advertise on here unless you want to pm me with an offer? |
