To put your mind at rest over the temperature, buy an actual gauge that reads the degrees of heat as they are more acturate. After suffering from the needle going in the red on some trips and not on other and worried about should it be at twelve a clock or nine oclock. I bought a temperature...

We can clone things, fly man to the moon, split atoms but one thing we can't do and that's control mother nature. Be it snow, floods, droughts, earthquakes,hurricanes,tsunamis,what ever happens we are only here for the ride so hang on and enjoy life to the fullest. My thoughts are with Japan

Hi guys Gee where does the year go was it November last time just seems like the other day not to worry,still I'm around and the earth does move a bit around here sometimes ;) Least I'm in the North Island and not the South Island. Thanks for the concerns around the earthquake, came as a...

Going by the voltage on idle your battery is charging.(alternator working) Next step would be to see if your battery is holding the charge. When you park it up at night check to see what voltage the battery is and then again in the morning. If you have a big difference you have either a fault...

A common way to get the oil filter off is to take off the front wheel and lift up or remove the rubber skirt so you can get to the oil filter easier. Just remember you have to push up and turn the filter at the same time for it to grip to the thread for tightening up.

To test pour some water in the gutter with the roof open and see if it goes down the holes and out behind the front guard. If its comes out around the control box your hose could be off so go to the workshop link and there is a download on how to fix it...

What you'll find is that the rubber booty for the gear shift and 4x4 lever has perished. Remove the center console between the front seats and expose the levers. The rubber booty acts as a insulator where the hole in the floor pan is allowing the levers to come up from the gear box. The hot...

Before you run out and buy a battery a simple check with a vault meter. Once you get it started check to see what vaults are being put in it by the alternator by placing the vault meter on the battery terminals while the engine is running, should be any where 12- 14 volts the higher the voltage...

I'm wondering if you had a slight air lock or water in the fuel filter causing the juddering ? For water in the fuel might depend where the pick up is in the tank hence going up a hill if the pick up is at the back then the water could get sucked up. Could be just coincidental that the loose...

If you want to get racey put a blow off valve on :lol Imagine at the lights on take off .....barooooooooommmmmm Wooosh not pfft :lol :lol

Sounds like it might be several things if coming across the front. 1. Around the front window 2. Have a look around the front mud guards and in particular where the door hinges are as sludge builds up between the skins when you look through pass the hinges. 3. Hose for the sunroof where it goes...

I agree on the standard set up. Our hills are a bit steeper and every where, pain in the butt when towing as the Mistral doesn't like them but still gets up them even if slow :( Oh for a intercooler Had no problem with auto over heating. And yes the secret is regular servicing ;)

This problem has been around for a while : http://www.lvvta.org.nz/ http://mpd.co.nz/news/archive.php?ymd=2007-08-07&idx=2

Ah will then it might pay as it could be your shed roof leaking then :)

If it's muddy water then check first behind the mud flaps.

If you are losing power after putting the K&N filter just double check to see if you have the correct filter. I had one but the wrong number for the model, replaced it with the correct one big difference

DING.... back in to your corners, time for a cup of tea and then let the second round begin and get your wheels back on the road :)

Sounds like it has not been bled fully. When you primed it did the primer knob go hard ? If not you still have air in the system, so keep on pumping the primer until it goes rock hard. Other option is to start again and you'll need to take the filter off again and fill it up with diesel and...

Sounds like the bulb has blown which means that the dashboard need to come out. Not to bad of a job to get it out, just a case of finding all the bolts and screws that holds the dashboard in place. Don't force anything as the bolts and screws are often hidden by another panel that needs to come...

You could always use RainX window treatment in the mean time.
