Mine was flashing on my car the other Friday night, I changed diesel from the normal stuff I was putting in and it stopped flashing the next day, I was using that BP Ultimate diesel but the car didn't like it. |

![]() This sounds like the solution for the TX11,but here in London it has yet to happen. Don't forget after installing the Nissan engine, a Livingstone emission system will have to be added. Anyone know of this happening in London? Also how freely available are spare parts for the Nissan engine? |

The light flashing means that there is a fault in the engine and a trip to the dealer to get the code read. It also puts the cab in 'safe mode' or around 75% of engine power which means its bloody gutless. Mine has recently started flashing and it needed a new ERG valve. |

The engine and box out of a Nissan Navara will fit and you wont need the emission equipment, and you can chip it as well
