    New Radiator

    Hello, just thought that I would share with you the problems of obtaining and fitting a new rad to my L-series. There are many sites advertising new rads for next day delivery on the web but when you check, the prices are different. I ordered one which took a week to arrive and was the wrong...

    Mondo mode

    :blabla: I have recently reverted to 4x4 after about 3k miles in 4x2 drive while I was renewing VCU bearings. I have to say that I did not notice any difference in fuel consumption. (I take the average for every tank fill) I can say that she drives much better in 4x4 and the gearchange is...

    L Series Vibration/Booming

    IIRC there was a technical bulletin and recall about this and it was to do with the position of the inlet pipe on the air box. The noise is I assume resonance of the air column in the inlet tract. I have an 2000my XeDi and remember reading this. If I find it I will post the info on here.

    Dipstick won't go back in...

    Hi Freefall I had exactly this problem. I have an L-series diesel engine and the plastic button fell off and jammed in the dipstick tube. I couldn't plug in dipstick and in the end had to remove the tube. Can't remember what has to be stripped off first but it is an easy job. Tube just pulls...
