I've only had a couple of them in the family but they were both the FWD version - Errol will know if its the same engine as the Navara. Bad news both of them, a Pintara 12 valve SSS and a U13SSS - both had similar problems with valve gear and general reliability, both crack header and broke studs off in the head, something that I've never experienced with any other Nissan engine. The Pintara was new so it was always fixed under warranty and got rid of as soon as it was out of it, but the Bluey was 2nd hand and the cost of the parts even at trade were prohibitive. It was got rid of too.
