    Now that I have mine one of the first things I looked for was the location of the breather.

    For the record, the location on mine has changed and it is nowhere to be seen. Where have they put it?

    It is a 01 May Production Date.

    Slightly off thread, but has anyone had any issues with the TD5 Deefer breather hoses. It's fairly well exposed in it's current position but I've not had any problems to date with some moderately deep (900) crossings up the Cape etc.

    It may be that the location on its own is not the issue. There has been some discussion that the blockage of this pipe together with a change in the specification of the Filler Cap (allowing water in through the key hole under negative pressure) has been the problem.

    Except that the breather also needs to let air in as the fuel is used from the tank otherwise the tank would implode (I exaggerate to make a point) ?

    the valve in the td5 looks the same as the 07, and it is 2way in opperation. i just went and sucked and blowed ed mine. cap is sealed.

    the u turn in the breather on mine is towards the rear, not poniting forward like the 07's (i think?) therefore its slightly further away from the tyre.

    i too am myfed as to why the td5's have'nt shown any water ingress if the breathers are identicial.

    job for sometime soon, will extend mine up into the cab.

    cheers phil

    Is that wise? Wouldn't there be fuel vapour coming out when filling? (I know it's only diesel, but it can't be good).

    when i fill up all the vapour is coming out the filler, its not petrol!
    ide be more worried about the batteries under the seat.
    (dont you watch mythbusters?)
    i'm sure you told me it was one way the other day!!!

    or was that what you thought until you checked it?
    it was a guess, i couldnt see why if it were a vlave why it would be 2way.
    ide want gas to escape and not water go in. so if its 2way why is it there at all? maybe its a filter??? to filter the dirt from the water

    cheers phil
