Hi All, the yellow misfuelling device reset tool was sitting in the glove box when i bought the car second hand, wheres it meant to live? the manual says the boot, but where, the little tabs are delicate and i don't want it to break.

I hook mine under the rubber straps holding the tool kit in place.

Ditto.
Although after a service, it had disappeared.
Found it had fallen down in to the bottom of the cubby hole where the tool kit lives.
Might move it to the glove box though.

Thanks Guys,
it needs a little case like you use for your toothbrush when travelling

[RHS58]

Hopefully it will be something you will never use.

In my MY14 there are mounting tabs on the glovebox lid for it. But they don't hold it very well so I have moved it to one of the rear cubbyboxes.

Cheers,
Scott

indeed 😉

yeah, theirs a rubber gripper on the glovebox lid, that's where i've put it but it doesn't fit well due to the triangle, so i figured it was for a pen, not the reset tool

Yeah James, that's a Pen holder, that's where my dealer left his LR pen for me.:p

Hi
I agree with RHS58 I hope I will never have to use it.
I have a MY13 D4 they have a little storage box on either side in the boot area, mine went in there.
regards Kev

In my MY14 it sits under the false floor in the boot, in its own recess along with the tow hitch and the wheel chocks etc.

Mine just lives in the glovebox.

Had to use it once after travelling on that wonderful road between Alice Springs and Finke.By far the worse corrugations i have ever seen.The corrogations must have tripped it.

The vehicle was loaded,and the fridge lives in the back against the jack compartment,so if it was kept there i would have had to do some unloading to get it out.:(

I didn't really know which part of the market place to advertise it, but incase anyone has broken or lost their own, I bought one unnecessarily. Sigh!

Mine just sits in the cubby beside my right leg. Only used it once and that was at a remote WA stop (Gascoyne Junction from memory) where the fuel filler bloke complained of the time taken to get fuel into a fellow travellers D4.
He didn't want to fill mine because of it but was happy when he knew what the prob. was and how easy it was to fix.

Interestingly I had to use the one in my Range Rover on a recent trip and I didn't even misfuel the car. One day it was just really difficult to fill the car on the trip and I thought it must have been the bowser. It kept happening at each fuel stop until I thought about the misfuel system. Sure enough that fixed it. As stated in another post the corrugations must have tripped it or something.
