    How's this for battery life!

    Well this afternoon the battery in my 2006 D22 finally died. I had noticed it getting a little bit sluggish on the starts over the last few days. I was trying to recall if I had ever replaced a battery in it and couldn't recall doing so. Checked my trusty service spread sheet and nothing...

    Weight of a D22 bucket seat?

    Well obviously no one had a seat lying around but if anyone needs to know - they're about 17 kilos! I traveled to the Gold Coast on the weekend and brought my seats home today on the plane. Got home at about midday and the seats were in by 3pm! All very straight forward really. Now I plan...

    Weight of a D22 bucket seat?

    Guys, I'm trying to find out the weight of a standard D22 front bucket seat. I have bought a set but need to transport them from Gold Coast to Cairns. We're flying down there next week and I'm looking at what it'll cost to bring them home. Do any of you have a seat out of your truck at the...

    'Whooshing' noise just started

    Thanks for your help gents. The ute's back on the road without the 'whoosh' thankfully. I went to the local Enzed franchise and bought a 200mm length of the 60mm ID blue silicon hose so I cut one from that and now have a spare. It's quite pricey that stuff, but then I guess the genuine...

    'Whooshing' noise just started

    Ummm . . . okay I ran the spanners over all the underbonnet nuts, bolts and fasteners whilst I was under there and nipped a couple that weren't quite up to the recommended torque values - one of them may or may not have been on the turbo. (How's that mate?)

    'Whooshing' noise just started

    You guys were right on the money. Thanks for the pics Chartrock - that's the one! I popped the bonnet to have a look this afternoon and there was the hose sitting there with a big split down the back of it. At least it's nice and easy to get to and should be a cheap fix! Thanks again gents -...

    Thanks for your prompt replies fellas. I'm going to try and have a look at it this week or the weekend at the latest and will let you know what I find. Cheers and thanks again, Russ

    'Whooshing' noise just started

    Guys, My 2006 D22 ZD30 has just started to make a strange noise that definitely wasn't there previously. When accelerating in each gear I'm hearing a 'whooshing' or 'hissing' type exhaust noise just as it's coming on boost. I'm not getting any noise increase similar to what ordinarily occurs...

    ZD30 sounds different

    That's something that I've always wondered about with my '06 ZD30 D22 - it doesn't seem to make the whistle sound so common to other turbo diesels. Cheers, Russ

    Use of low range in 2WD

    Thanks very much gents. I got into the habit of doing this with my old Kia Ceres 4x4 ute (manual hubs also) that I had before the Nav and always found it really handy. It's been one of those situations that I've sort of thought, "Nah - it surely can't hurt anything whilst the hubs aren't...

    Use of low range in 2WD

    Hi all, I live on a sloped acerage block and regularly use my DX single cab ute for doing stuff in the yard. Quite often when using the box trailer I'll select low range but not engage the hubs. I do this to save riding the clutch when doing hill starts, and whilst reversing the trailer...

    Bucket Seats

    Bucket Seats

    Thanks Dr13b, I particularly want to use the STR seats to avoid any legality issues. I just don't want to buy a set only to find out that it's not a 'bolt in' conversion. Cheers though mate and thanks for responding. I bet your new seats are a wee bit more comfortable than the original bench eh?

    Bucket Seats

    Hi Sparra - did you end up doing this mod? I am also interested in a set of STR buckets for my single cab and am keen to hear from anyone who has actually done it. Cheers, Russ

    To swap or not to swap.......

    Dave that's what I'm thinking. I really like my '06. It's a shame I didn't give the dual cab idea a bit more thought before I bought mine but that's life I guess! The '03 I looked at is probably a very good vehicle but it's the psychological hurdle of 'upgrading' to an older vehicle which is...

    To swap or not to swap.......

    Thanks for your replies fellas. I'm still undecided about going for the '03, although I have driven it and it seems like a nice vehicle. I'm leaning more towards maybe selling mine first and then throwing some extra cash into later model dual cab. Ah - decisions, decisions! Cheers, Russ

    To swap or not to swap.......

    Guys, I have a 2006 D22 single cab with only 35,000 kms on the clock and in very clean & tidy condition. My drama is that the single bench seat is not practical for wifey, myself and our 4 year old son. I may have the opportunity to do a deal with a local bloke who has a 2003 STR dual cab and...
