Was looking for a manual for my patrol, needed 25 posts so i guess ill get started with an introduction.
I live in vic, west of Melbourne about 50 ks from cbd, just picked up an 07 GU, looking forward to getting into some light 4wd'ing for now, nothing too extreme.
Bit of gold detecting, and trying to get better than 29 litres to 210 ks??

Cheers Illya

Welcome mate, surely the best forum on the net. If you need it, you can get it, if you want to know it, just ask it.

That's not bad at all 13.8ltrs per 100kms is pretty good for a troll

Thanks for the welcome Mego, thought that it would have been a couple of litres less than that.

Gday mate welcome aboard. What type of engine does your trol have?


That's not bad at all 13.8ltrs per 100kms is pretty good for a troll

Because yes, thats very good fuel economy


Thanks for the welcome Mego, thought that it would have been a couple of litres less than that.

I get about 26-28 litres Per 100kms!!
