Filter Change

[Piddler]

Hi,
how often should the various filters be changed on the disco?

I service every 10,000 and change the oil filter I was wondering how often to change the centrifugel and fuel filters?

cheers

I have a plan which works out that you approx. halve the recommendations of LR. The half recommends are for oils & filter.

Change engine oil @ every 10,000 K's
Change centrifuge filter @ every 10,000 K's.
Change full flow filter @ every 30,000 K's.
Change diffs oils @ every 60,000 K's.
Change transfer oil @ every 80,000 K's. (LR recommended)
Change radiator water @ every 40,000 K's.
Change fuel filter @ 40,000 K's. (LR recommended) The water sensor is brittle and does not like to be removed & replaced. Also $130 each...you don't want to stuff it up each time you change the filter 8O

It works out to be a bit more expensive but you know that it will last the distance and should not cause you any problems.

Cheers,
Lyndon.
