Trouble Again:

We were glad to be on the road again and were about 15 kms out of Port Hedland when suddenly we lost power and the turbo wasn’t working nor was the cruise control. We turned around and crawled back to Nissan as the car is still under warranty. They put their computer onto the car and couldn’t find anything wrong and after much head scratching they looked under the bonnet and saw there was oil everywhere and discovered a small crack in the hose to the turbo. So we waited and waited in the caravan which was parked in the side street, as they tried to locate a hose. There were none available but luckily they found one on a wrecked car out the back. Just after lunch we had a call from Geoff and Heather as they had just arrived in Pt Hedland so we were able to catch up with them only briefly as not long after they turned up the car was finished and we needed to get going.
