re-wafered?

It was a new Discovery 1 ignition barrel with 2 new keys cut to suit my car, it is an easy job took around 30 minutes as expecting it to be a pain to change.


Lost one of the my keys at work and the other key was badly worn plus te barrel was a bit hard to turn sometimes.


The roof lining came up good and was a good colour match $130 to get it done so will see if it lasts, next job I to get windscreen done and air con re gassed

RooSystems deluxe..

Yesterday at lunch time, I writ off my 2002 TD5.
T'boned a ute in Mildura, he took out my caravan too.
Now I have small problem, I have bought nearly a grands worth of new part that I don't need any more.
The good side, every body in the three cars were unhurt.

Ah well,
MERRY CHRISTMAS every one on the forum.
Cheers
Mike

Bad luck on the disco. Glad to hear that everyone's ok tho. R u planning on getting another one?

Round trip to Ballarat from Moe - about 600km's of boredom. Good thing the D2 has comfy seats.
Now hanging out for boxing day - off to somewhere along the snowy river for a few days of peace and quiet with no mobile coverage...:-)
REALLY hanging out for September for the Birdsville races.

I installed a TM1 Engine Watchdog temperature monitor on my TD5 today and chose to attach the temp sensor under a bolt adjacent to the factory temp sensor. Looking forwarding to making observations over the summer period and into winter What should I expect and what are the indications of a faulty thermostat?

It will either stay cooler than expected (stuck open) or get hotter than expected (Stuck closed)
:D
Sorry, not much help.
Most Td5s run around 88-96ish. Mine basically sat on 89 crusing at around 110, and roughly 93 around town.
