Hi All,
Just joined after purchasing a used MY08/09 3.0L CRD wagon. Traded a 2012 D22 Navara which I'd spent a lot on but wasn't going anywhere (looked nice though).
Enjoying the Patrol so far as the previous owner obviously looked after it. He was definitely a modder as I have trailer brakes, diff locker, lift and suspension upgrade, intercooler upgrade, boost and egt guages etc, so I thank him for that:smiley_thumbs_up:.
The only difficulty was that there was no tech data left with the vehicle so having to spend a lot of time researching this, I'm an electronics tech/ROV Pilot by trade so know a bit about a lot of things and not a lot about most!
Also just purchased an "offroad" caravan (Jayco Outback model) and looking to learn a lot about towing, camping etc.
So, in short, hoping to see, read, hear a lot more of this forum and I've already learnt quite a bit from these pages.
Keep up the good work and cameraderie!
Cheers,
Gropertoo
