Any updates on this? Surely by now someone makes specific products for the King Cab.

Comments? Is 2.5" too small for a dump pipe? What size is the standard one, by a guesstimate, not a great deal smaller than that.

Thanks guys, good responses. I was expecting to be bagged for being a whinger. It's true, I am hard to please but common, I paid over $50k for the vehicle as it sits.

I'm not expecting this to be particularly well received but here goes... I've got the shitts with my King Cab and I'm getting rid of it. I'm going to get what I should have in the first place, a 4.2td Patrol or a Cruiser. I've had my 09 D40 STX King Cab 2.5td manual since November 09, it's...

I have the same rattle. It is most obvious on corrugated dirt roads, rail crossings or anything else with high freq vibrations, sometimes just accelerating from the lights if I rev it out. I've had it back twice to fix it. I got told the same thing re lines rattling against the firewall. I'll...

I got told by my local dealer after I complained that I was unable to get better than 13.5-14L/100km on the highway that it was normal for the 2.5td in these vehicles. Further that it was acceptible to have a 33% variation from the quoted official fuel figures. Further that the reason for all...

Update from my last post - Well I've been watching my fuel consumption very closely. Majority of my driving is highway at 100km/h on cruise. I fill the tank up to exactely the same level every time by filling until I can see the diesel in the filler neck. As far as I can see there is no harm...

In case anyone is interested, my 09 D40 STX King Cab diesel manual economy figures recently: 61km of flat highway. Set the cruise spot on 100km/h. Indicated revs approx 2200rpm. It got 14.4 L/100km. I've got 265/75/16 BFG muddies on the standard rims. Everything else is standard. Tyre...

D40 stx king cab. 265/75/16 BFG KM2's on standard STX rims. No dramas with clearing the guards or rubbing. I'm not happy with how they balance. I'm not sure if I got a bad set of tyres or what but even after taking them back to the tyre fitters a second time for a re-balance I still have a...

Bit of a thread hijack here... hopefully slightly relevant. King cab's seem to be different to the dual cabs. Everyone says that normal dual cab lift kits won't fit king cabs. Something to do with being made in Thailand rather than Spain. Snake for example say that their 5" lift kit will not...

Mate a couple of questions. I'm new to diesels and egt's. I understand that high egt's are bad. But I'm also thinking that high is a relative word. What is normal for the Nav 2.5 and what is dangerous? Also did you find that putting on the dump and 2.5" exhaust make the max boost go up? By...

Keen to hear about how this is going. Update?
