Hi all, I have a weeping high pressure line on my P/S and i'm wondering if the LHD and RHD hoses are the same.:think: Could someone put a VIN of an '02 up so long as you have the 3.7. I just need any '02 VIN so my dealer can tell me.:hmm: I will probably buy from the US direct but I ain't...

Hi, Here in New Zealand, we pay NZ$2.24 a litre for 95(RON). That is NZ$8.96 a US Gallon which - with today's exchange rate - equals US$7.34 a gallon. wtf.gif You guys SHOULDN'T moan!!!(beer) Oliver:party52:

Hi Here is a snap of my FT7800 in my KJ...:icon_arrow: It uses a small piece of alloy with 3M double sided pressure tape inside the ashtray and on the the rear of the head unit. Been there for 3 years with no problem. Oliver

Hi The quickest way would be to take it to the dealers and go through the list with them while it is hooked up the the computer. :friday: That's what we do here!! Oliver

Yep. It isn't too expensive either from the dealers. For a change :freak3:

Hi all, Well, down here it is SPECIFIED that they run synthetic. I have seen dino in the 3.7 and it wasn't pretty. The dealer here has seen NO issues with the 3.7s and 4.7s that only run 5w30 synth. Other grades and oils...that's another story... Just my 10c worth. Oliver

Hi, Thank you. I'm not convinced they aren't related now that you set me thinking again. The thump from the 'rear' is probably what you are reffering to as my XJ does it as well. :freak3: This was definately from the trans, but I never felt the thump on the occasions that it...

Hi, Mine is a Limited 3.7 auto. All the fluids are up to level as it had the 96000km 'big' service done on time. Occaisonaly it rattles on startup for a couple of seconds but not always. Oliver:party52:

Hi all, Just in the last couple of days (and only once /day), I have noticed my trans clunk down to low after I have stopped. I know the rear end thump many get and mine has had since new. This ISN'T it.:shakehead: Yesterday was warm and it was a decided clunk. Today was a much lighter...

Hi, How do you know your trans is going bad? Thanks Oliver

Hi, Have seen way too many of the Chinese rotors collapse here. They are not marked with any safety standards as a rule and they have broken in everything from Land Rovers to Nissan Sentras. :favorites68: I found Brembos made in Italy with all the correct E markings etc for not much more. I...

But, I would check the amp first. Might not be getting power or just buggered!:pepper:

Hi,:headbang: Very likely the clockspring cable. Seen it before on VWs.:signs16: Oliver

Hi, Illegal in Oz just as it is in NZ. It;'s not just the old engine, it the trans, the diffs and the body. Nope. Won't happen.

It's easy!!:smokin: I have a 7800 Yaesu in mine. The 'brain' is under the passenger's seat and the head is mounted to the open ashtray with a little aluminium and double sided tape. Been there for 3 years with no problems at all. :party52: Have fun! Oliver
