    Heat switch

    It is a switch that increases the tickover to 1200rpm so great for getting windows defrosted etc in the mornings, gos a long way to solving the problem of diesels taking so long to warm up. Kind regards Russell.

    Heat switch

    Now that the cold weather is with us in the mornings just wondered how many of you use the Heat switch, I find this brilliant start car up flick on the heat switch after a couple of mins to let oil circulate, then clean the windows and mirrors and ready for the off with slightly warm air coming...

    Rear Wiper

    Stansdared wheel size 265/70/16 on a patrol steel wheel but if you remove spare the wiper drops down to parallel with bottom of glass and if you do not lift wiper up when replacing spare it gets jammed, as you can see it sits on the tyre suspect the wheel may have been pushed in to the door as I...

    Side exit exhaust

    Very hard to do on Patrol as the end of the exhaust is only about 25mm further than you can see here. Kind regards Russell.

    Rear Wiper

    Mine works (Patrol) but what small amount it clears is not worth the hassle, also have to be careful as it get stuck behind the spare. Kind regards Russell.

    Rear light fixing

    When you did your euro rear lights did you change or mod the existing and if you changed them do you want to sell the nearside as I have just smashed mine greenlining. Kind regards Regards.

    My wait nearly over

    Mine has 3 pumps 2 small ones attached to the washer bottle front and rear window washer and a big one attached by pipe to washer bottle this is the headlamp washer pump and has much bigger pipes etc than the window ones. Kind regards Russell.

    My wait nearly over

    Since I have had my Patrol the headlamp washers have never worked, I had a look to find the pump split in two and a bolt shoved up pipe to stop the bottle from emptying. Flatly refused to pay the stealer price of £170.00!!! so have kept in contact with Nispec 1st waiting for a Patrol to appear...

    Strange I had a Trooper before my Patrol and just assumed that the door was smaller as I could never seem to get anything out without opening second door on my Patrol but have just been to check out my patrol and discovered that the first door does indeed only open part way to 70 approx. degrees...

    Snorkel Q&A

    Memorys come back to me as I remember a few of us where trying to empty a long puddle (did rather a good job too as I recall) just by driving through it qucikish. Mine did let water in on the road facing forwards hence the reason it faced backwards, as the airbox would slowly fill in heavy rain...

    Snorkel Q&A

    That's why on my Trooper I turned it backwards as that was a Chinese copy of a Safari with no pad in the top part. Kind regards Russell.
