Although this is an old subject about "when all else fails then read the instructions" I thought I needed to post my latest experience as a reminder to all the other clever people out there......

How's this for one very desirable camping setup?53951

Here is something for you lot to then do. How about reading my post "what to keep and what to scrap" and putting together some good advice? (Not like sell the spares and use the money to buy beer!)

A question for all the very experienced mechanical brains; I have just replaced my complete front axle with one from a donor vehicle. The knuckle joint on my old axle was badly pitted and damaged and...

For what its worth, I have two 4.5 GRX's (one kitted out for the bush and mountains and the other for seven seated family fun) and am extremely happy with both. Reliability is excellent and fuel...

Great stuff. Glad to see you enjoying my stamping ground.

For my part, a truly awesome post. I am about to overhaul my front hubs and until this post felt a bit lost despite having the manual at hand. Its posts like these that make this forum so good. Many...

Hey guys! Please welcome Spartacus to my family. Spartacus (on the right) joins Attila as a second legendary warrior to take us across the length and breadth of Africa. Why two warriors. I just like...

Thanks guys, really appreciate the response and pictures. I have the remnants of the plastic deflector still in place (the two bolt on strips) but had no idea of the size and angle. Will definitely...

Can anyone help with some detailed engine compartment and underside pictures? I have a '99 4.5TB (Attila) which Swambo and I drag through the African "outback" on various remote and sometimes hairy...

Hey boet! Welcome to the forum from a fellow SA member (KZN South Coast). This is where you will find really good technical help and advice. I find SA to be a lonely place for Patrol owners and have...

I suspect what you saw was the same that happens when there is an earthing problem or a hang-up in the electronics, and is warning of a break in the circuit somewhere.

Just to close off this thread, after my last post I still battled for another month to try and solve this problem but without any luck. Mean time, I now also noticed that the plastic covers over my...

As a matter of curiosity, did you manage to solve the problem?

Hey NP99, if the saga of the sub tank reset is anything to go by the disconnect de-energise and reconnect trick may just do the trick. I will try this as soon as I can get under the bonnet and if it...

I've searched the forum without success to see if anyone else has experienced the same problem. My '99 4.5L has the automatic air conditioning unit fitted and the control appears to be working...

Agreed, fluid should be changed regularly. But nice little wake-up call! For what its worth, we are also right hand drive as is most of southern Africa.

Just a word of warning with the turbo and general exhaust heat. I've just had a nasty experience with my clutch.

Driving up a mountain track to the highest pub in Africa at 10000 feet (Sani Pass...

I would go with that. There is a one way valve and as 256 said you probably put the hose on the wrong way round.

Thanks, Alex, for the feedback. In the mean time I found after some digging and pulling on the wiring to leave these connections alone. Just out of sight and reach on the wiring harness is a...

I'm afraid that this may sound a bit of a lame question:icon_bonk:, but how do I disconnect the five round green connectors on the sender unit on top of the main tank? I need to take out the unit to...

Hey Guy! I'm just down the road from you in Sezela! Welcome to the forum. Most useful place. I've got the identical machine to yours, except from the look of the picture yours is in better shape than...

You've got yourself a bag of bolts that easy to maintain and just great to drive. Welcome.
