    Hi Shortly,

    Welcome aboard .....

    Fill us in with some more details and we will all try our best to help.

    The 2000 model was one of the reported problem years, but i know of some with heaps of kilometres on them.

    Well I bought it in January had the engine rebuilt by the seller as it started of with a few problems and one mechanic made it a lot worse so basically have a brand new engine I have been told ... Put in a turbo timer .... Am about to replace suspension ... And look forward to do some travelling ... But have done some research and now wanting to find out what necessary gauges I should install to make sure I get the most out of it

    Shortly,

    Great news that have the rebuilt engine, as this should keep you motoring along for a long while....

    I would install Boost and Exhaust Temp Gauges, if you are going to head that way.

    I am not a huge fan of turbo timers, so I would get rid of that, but that is me.
