Evening all. Just bought my first patrol and yet to take it out. Already broken it though so guess I'm having fun?

G'day Matt and welcome to the forum. Of course you are having fun. What did you brake?

All the bolts sheered off the viscous coupling... Fan went through the radiator and the auto filled with water.... nice little repair bill 3 days after purchase! It's all fixed now but there's a noise when shifting from park to reverse. It is possible that it's just the driveline coming under tension and I'm just paranoid!

Hello matt amd welcome to the forum, enjoy...
As for the noise get the auto serviced first.
and yes it could be taking up all the back lash
from the drive train. Then again the noise
could be normal.
where abouts in Melb are you??

Cheers lads. 95% sure im just paranoid about the noise as its all new and unfamiliar to me. Trans has been flushed and levels are all correct. It drives and shifts as it should with no noises. Im from preston threedogs.
