Hi Sean, and welcome here!

Have you browsed the "Workshop Manuals" section? You will probably find something suitable there.

Please describe your vehicle more fully, as well as the trials & tribulations (and costs!) of importing a vehicle from the Land of the Rising Sun, sounds like it could be interesting reading!

Hi

Welcome to the forum.

Tell us a bit more about your vehicle, year model, engine, diesel or petrol?
Sounds similar to the SA SRX models.
