HI
I own a nu-venture 1994 2.5 Isuzu diesel engine on a Vauxhall Brava pick up converted in 1996 by ne venture and done 120 000 miles. Not a Frontera so sorry about this if I am boring you. I have owned this for about 5 years now.
The jobs I have done so far are
1. Painted full front end doors bonnet ect with Synthetic coach paint £30.
2. Welding on the front cross member (just saved it in time) it had already been welded before but not very good and wasn’t sealed properly. £60 (mates rates) I did all the donkey work first.
3. Oil change/oil filter fuel filter, always the first jobs I do on any motor.
4. Timing belt change, took it to a garage for this one £280
5. Under sealed with red oxide £20 for tin and lots of late nights scraping. Red oxide was recommended by a mechanic. Don’t know what other members think? Said that it bites in better than normal underseal. I have since gone over this with wax oil.
5. Changed radiator hoses while rad was out for welding £40.

Next job to do is the wiper ball joint mechanism has failed (worn) on one side. You will probably see another post somewhere on the site about this.

Cheers
Richard
