took mine to auto sparky to check it out and wire a couple of things in, bad news is my 18mth old starter motor is chucking oil everywhere so a new one is on order, BUGGER
Nah not a boot. But yeah I started hearing a clunk and I think I felt it on the floor a few times... Hopefully that's it. And I bloody washed my car last week! You're just jealous that I get it muddy more often than you townies. So, yes George I'll wash it and yes Winnie I'll get under there with a torch.... God you guys are hard on me!!!
Not jealous at all my bumpkin friend but hey if you enjoy looking like you crawled around in dirt all day and filling your eyes with dirt so every time you blink they feel like they're 36grit sandpaper thats your problem!!!

How can that be when the starter doesn't have oil in it ???
Well I had the new starter installed and called my mechanic to have a go at him for not seeing it and he says there is nothing wrong with your starter it will be just the oil spilt when he changed the filters, faaarrrrrk I spent $$$$$$ on replacing a starter there is nothing wrong with, oh well he was very embarrassed and gave me a discount and serviced the starter so now I have a perfectly good spare starter.
Oil and filter time in the TD42..wishing I could get one of those oil drip trays I have seen on forums, but was not too messy.
New shocks and springs this weekend..still can't believe it was so hard to get some 2" lifted coils for the shorty lol guess a month to get them is not too bad
