Nissan Largo Friends

Hi, Thanks for the add, keen to get my van looking amazing just bought a highway Star.....Based in Devon...

Welcome along. What you got planned for it

Just want to get it back to original mintish condition and get the engine running sweet....so a good clean in and out, new oil filters etc.... I like them just as they were

If you need any info just shout. There's a wealth of info already on this forum. Good luck and happy largoing

Thanks, currently trying to sort out air con, the machine wouldn't even start to top it up as the leak is so bad!!!

As is the norm not much service history so I am thinking of doing the following immediately and then other jobs as needs, any thing else you can suggest?

Oil and filter change
Automatic transmission oil change
Flush cooling system
EGR clean
Air separator valve clean
Core plugs


Belts look pretty good
Wheel alignment done today as it was badly out......

Try simple one first aircon fuse blown. If not could well be the pump

If took to a non specialist then they just hook it to a machine and try to draw a vacuum. If it wont hold the vacuum then the machine will not go onto fill the system due to ozone depleting nature of the refrigerant. What you need to do is have the system filled with an inert gas with a floursent dye also and then you can see where the leaks are. Some cars are prone to leaks on the condenser (astras) they literally fall apart so just a visual will confirm the first port of call for a leak. Others are prone to leaks on the orings where they dry out and shrink (subarus). Others could be front end damage from previous accident or just a stone come up and compromised the sealed system.

Hi, yes that's what they wanted to do but didn't have a ramp free, very busy time here in Devon so going back soon...
