Outside Lismore Shopping Sq.
Another D2 being ignomiously carried away astride a tilt tray.

Hopefully nothing too terminal.

And no, it wasn't mine which is parked up atm

Nothing new there

Although in all the years i had D2's,TD5,only the D2a ended up on a tilt tray,and that was because someone filled it up with premium unleaded.

Siphoned the fuel from the tank,changed the fuel filter,filled it with 20l diesel,all good.

Yep, I met a tilt tray operator in the wilds of the NT that had christened his truck back in the day as a D2 recovery vehicle

I have a D2 manual td5 with shattered injectors and a D2 Auto with an undiagnosed issue... As much as you love them, you can't leave home without a toolbox, spares and a postal address for whatever spares you didn't think you'd need.

Do chemist shops still wreak havoc with D2 immobilisers?

There is a spot in the parking lot at Cannon Hill Mall outside K Mart that plays havoc with a few makes of electronic cars. They won't restart after driving in to the black spot. RACQ patrolmen know about it and the remedy is to push the vehicle a few spaces away and it will start. Some device or other in the building is obviously emitting a vehicular death ray.

Often the automatic doors. I had an American import Goldwing, it arrived here fitted with a radar detector. All it could detect in this country was, BP servos.
