    When should you buy off-roading kit?

    Guess Who's back...Back again...

    First i've heard of it. Almost all of us on the L200Forum are running the Ralliart chip. It's normally the EGR Valves that go bad, forcing heat and exhaust gasses into the Oil and coolant channels leading to Head Gasket Failure. removing and blanking this is a £12 and 30 minute job

    Would you risk it?

    I upgraded my Halifax bank account, I pay £9 a month and get free travel insurance, Free RAC and a whole load of other things. Worth considering.
