Picked up the first Chev and blew the turbo intercooler hose off the Nissan Navara for the second time in 10 days. Limped into Ipswich and had the incorrect hose clip replaced with the proper one. Thankfully it only took 10 minutes. With 200hp and 600nm of torque this little ute is really outstanding for towing - didn't know it had the Chev on the back.

It is surprising how big a bang it makes when you blow a turbo hose off. I did it and my first thought was a tire blown but then realised that nothing had happened to the handling but I didn't have any power. They go much better with the hose back in place !

Nice Chevy too !
