I ran 300 down pipe , td5 straight thru (modded ) and a Tdci 90 tail silencer on my 300 110 it sounded very throaty but on long journeys at speed it really got on my tits Couldn't hear myself think at times In the end I fitted a new take off Tdci 110 mid and back silencer and just modded my down...

What model is it? Try the park switch on the motor I'd take a look at your column switch contacts and get a multi meter at it If the wipers seem slow check the wiper spindles aren't seizing too (bits where the arms fit on) There's a bad batch of tdci's that end up failing, you would suspect the...

My old series 1 swb had old mud tyres on it and they were starting to perish so I took em and the modulars off and put a nice set of used michelins and td5 steel rims on, painted em green they looked mint! Got a shock at how the truck would roll forwards when sitting in traffic, it never used to...

Hmmm main dealer , "no fault found sir" be sure to explain it when dropping it off, the info between reception and workshop is a lost in translation thing, I've heard of such issues and the techs looking for the wrong thing

It looks like the main dealer tool a lot

Thanks Gatso As the saying goes ....... I'll be back

And finally ........ Td5 gauges in progress As you can see it's a snug install and you've got to get everything just right to fit The warning panel needs special attention otherwise there won't be room for it See below for the extra trim needed on the white bit Just need to...
