What did you do to your Patrol today!

[AB]

I am struggling to find time to do things myself. Normally I am home by 4pm but lately I have been getting home at 6 and it is dark and wet and I don't have a shed. I need to change the brake fluid badly.
I should be able to knuckle down and make a list of rubbers that need replacing, change fluids etc this weekend.

Poor bugger...

Try coming home to screaming kids and 45 emails to attend to

Left the farkin' thing at home. That's how much it's doing my head in. Easy fix, don't drive it. ha!

Not good mate, hope you get sorted soon.

winnie, i need the slave cylinder done, some basic wiring fixing, look at speedo issue, service, check contamination in diffs, transfer, gearbox.

Fuse on left led ballast is melting, rotate tyres there's a few other things i can't remember.

I need a full look over everything as well.


Sounds like your not coming mate it wont be out
of the work shop in time lol

brake and power steering fluid.

Some rubbers are split, etc

i know it's all simple stuff but i simply do not have a spare day to knuckle down and do it all.

I'm only getting the slave cylinder done, tyre rotate, engine oil, replace brake fluid and power steering, seal on handbrake housing, minor elec fix ups, couple of rubber replacements and a good looking over.

Hopefully not much!!!!

Got a rear superior 4340 adjustable panhard coming in so that will not bend in my life time!!!

The front panhard looks nicely tucked up behind the Harris nose so hopefully that will be fine until money permits!

Yeh very frustrating. If I don't get it looked and or fixed soon, drastic measures will be taken. Either rip the farkin pos 3L out and put a 4.2 in, expensive exercise though, $ I don't have, so that idea has a sub-10% chance... Or just part it, sell and recoup some $ out of it and look at other options. At this stage I'm very over it. Lost a lot of nerves last few weeks. For now , she can sit in the driveway, as its a waste of diesel driving it as it is...

Whoah, what have I missed Hodge? What's going on with your car mate?

Whoah, what have I missed Hodge? What's going on with your car mate?

Inconsistent power issues, I've had for a long time now mate. One day she is a rocket, the next shes a complete slug. Mainly in 4th and 5th, but lately it's been across the gears. And I touch, or do nothing to it inbetween. It's like everytime I turn the engine on or off, the car rolls the dice, to set the power it's gonna have. For example, one set of lights on take off, it shoots off nearly snapping my neck, good in 2nd, 3rd, then 4th she just sits there laboring and boost maxes out but she just takes ages to get there. Then the next set of lights, it can be vice versa... Very slow on take off, then once I get to 3rd or 4th, she absolutely hammers... Thats just one of the examples. Sometimes it gets boderline dangerous when mergin on freeways etc...

And I've head a thread about it before asking for opinions, and gone through everything from MAF, to air filter, to adjusting the needle and dawes valve till cows come home. Mudski helped me a lot in this part, with the gear and MAFS, and setting it all up. Out of ideas. Just fed up with it.

Have you tried a can of that intake cleaner hodge? Subaru sell it and I think you can buy it at auto shops also, just has a different name. Worth a shot...
