    Been waiting for a call from the sales agent and was just told now he left for the states yesterday for a vacation :rofl: perhaps he just wanted his cut from the sale then left. lol

    bit ****ed but all good. Been out and about all day in a disco4 tdv6 (my relatives and I enjoy our rovers obviously) so hopefully that gets sorted fast. waiting for sales manager to ring me


    spoke to manager, probably wont be getting it till monday at this stage so a bit more excitement to go through lol

    howdy, few more questoins i thought i would post in here rather than start a new thread...


    tyre pressures, what do you guys run? card on the door says 30 up front and 48 on the rear for my application. When I checked they had all at 40. left the fronts at 40 for now and put the rears up to 48. Should I bother lowering the fronts to 30? seems a bit low?


    also, what are your 'shift points' - obviously it wont be as frugal as the saab, but was wondering what revs you guys prefer to shift at... I usually shift up at 2100 - 2500 but as otehrs have said it seems to be flat under 2000... if so should i be keeping it above 2000? on some shifts it only goes down about 500rpm so 2500-2000. but otherwise it goes down to about 1800 or so.

    Tyre pressures it's a personal thing, find what is comfortable for you. But around or just above factory pressures is fine.

    Low range light.....Ahh there is none, so you can stop driving now ;-) there is a Diff lock light tho'.
    Hint, when changing between hi/low & in/out of diff lock, having vehicle at walking pace saves a lot of headaches & be firm when engaging/disengaging lever.

    Cheers

    Mountain Photo... Low Sign...

    Is this something new in the 2013 Puma 2.2's?

    My 2.4 has the "normal" Defender diff lock light (same since 1983) and the TC light for when things are a bit slippy (not since 1983).

    Very curious and interested in these apparent extra signs and lights and potential features!

    Cheers,

    Lou

    its on the lower part of the tachometer. theres a reading that says 'low' with an image of a mountain behind it. its a sept 2012 build so may very well still be a 2012. But diff lock light I have and tc I'm sure. Never used it yet though. But I'll take a picture of the low light I see!
