Hi Guys, I wonder if anyone can help....I was having probs with the tail light/ console light circuit. Auto elec fixed it this week, diagnosed as short in spotties circuit. This was Monday. Today (Friday) when I went to leave work, I head a load sparky "crack" noise when I turned the...

Yeah...the ambient temp is around 38 C today! :) So, mid fifty sounds like a normal running temp you reckon? (Thanks for the quick reply by the way)

Hi Guys, I've just driven 250kms from Karratha to Port Hedland. I took the temperature of the two front manual hubs upon stopping. They were both reading mid 50 degrees Celsius. Is this normal or symptomatic of a wheel bearing on the way out? Cheers

I think I'm going for the mic sitting on the gear stick boot area too. Bought some decent double sided tape, but it seems every free area has a curved surface and the heat up here in the Pilbara ends up causing the clip and mic to drop off. Oh well. :)

Hi Guys, does anyone have a good link to YouTube or a good description of how to inspect/adjust/change out my front wheel bearings please?

Jacked up the d22 on each corner today and gave the wheels a bit of a wiggle. Looks like the front two wheels have a tiny amount of play in them. As an enthusiastic amateur, am I able to adjust the bearings or is it a garage job? I have freewheeling hubs.

Yeah, mine's similar to that when I take off...judders like an old bus on tickover. If I give it a wee bit of juice it doesn't judder at all.

I've been reading the thread about the vibrations experienced when engaging the clutch. My d22 does it often when I drop from third to second gear. I can generally avoid it happening by releasing the clutch quickly. Also get the same vibrations/judder when drawing in and out of the garage in...

Roger. Thanks Tony, will do.

Thanks for your help guys. I found a nice patch of even surfaced but unsealed road, did a few left and right turns on there to listen for the sound - it didn't do it. Hoping its just the difference in the tyres. Had a look for rubbing in the wheel arches, no evidence that this is occurring...

Hi Guys, I'm a new d22 owner so please excuse my ignorance. I'm getting a humming sound from the front end when turning. Power steering fluid level is ok. Could it be that I'm just not used to driving with chunkier tyres fitted?

I'm a new D22 owner, so still learning...I have a humming noise coming from the front end when I turn left or right. The tyres don't touch the bodywork and the power steering fluid is at a food level. Any tips? Could it be that I'm not used to driving with chunky tyres?

Thanks Nathan, I have the same clip. Will go d/s shopping at the weekend. :)

I think that could be the answer Nathan. Will look for some seriously sticky double sided. Thanks mate.

Thanks Dean. I think the previous owner had the same idea, the battery charge indicator takes up this spot. Tried (and failed) to use the adhesive take off one of those sticky picture hook things. May have to resort to the self tappers after all!

Any suggestions of good place to mount my mic clip? Just screw into dash or is there a more subtle approach?

Bit of a vibration... Hi Guys, I've recently bought my first S22. I'm getting a bit of vibration upon picking up the bite point in tickover (it disappears once I accelerate) and when I drop from third to second when approaching a roundabout or junction. Any thoughts/advice for me please...
