    2001 D2 Owners - a request for information

    Based on a previous survey of AULRO, the date the CDL internals were removed has been narrowed down to somewhere between 9th April and 24th May 2001 which covers just under 5800 D2's.

    I'd like to see if we can narrow this down even further, so need some help from owners of D2's built in this period.

    If your D2 has a VIN between 1A726480 ( first D2 built on 9 April 2001) and 1A732255 (last D2 built on 24 May 2001) and you now whether your vehicle has the CDL internals fitted or not, could you either post to this thread or PM me with the VIN and if the cdl internals are present. You can obscure the last 2 digits for modesty if you like.

    cheers

    Soooooooo...If mine is 1A721xxx I can be pretty sure I have the internals? I tried looking for a serial number but couldn't seem to find it. I'm not exactly mechanically minded so I barely know what I'm looking for to start.

    Yes, you'll have the internals.

    Ashcroft Transmissions have made this handy video on how to find the serial:

    Thanks Dazza,

    Based the Microcat database that VIN has a 11th June 2001 build date, so well past the change over.

    cheers

    Thanks Trev,

    I think your D2 might be the latest CDL equipped 2001MY that AULROians have reported so far - 09/04/2001 build.

    cheers

    Thanks Paul! I'll see what I can find in the next few days.

    I guess my only follow up question (which I'm sure has been answered before) is, if they have the internals installed why wouldn't they just add the cabling to make it work?

    LR felt that ETC would be a replacement and possibly an improvement over the hardware CDL.

    The fact that the internals were removed from the late 2001MY and all 2002MY D2's suggests that they believed this was still the case when these models were being developed.

    cheers
