No issues with overheating with those spotlights in front of the grill?

no John, I regularly get the cooling system pressure tested to ensure its OK. Never had to top up the coolant. Had an additional auto trans cooler fitted last year just to help with soft sand and long uphill hauls. All good

Got a few things I want to do it, so will keep this as the before picture.

Good job on the trans cooler,,
but by the time the cooling fails a pressure test the damage will have already been done,,
dont rely on the dash gauge, fit a real gauge(or electronic one) and low coolant alarm,,

and those lights will stop air


easy test for you lot with electronics and real gauges,, tailgate some at 100 and watch the needle climb, actually you dont even have to get that close.......

Did I do a bad thing? Is two too many to have?
Picked up the green 2000 TD5 ES Auto in 2013 with 240000kms. Of course it then 'needed' NNN ECU, ARB bar, radio, reversing camera, tyres, head unit, and other regular improvements. Recommissioned the front seat heaters too.
Then a year ago I bought a good friend's white 2000 TD5 S Manual. 210000 kms. VERY different drive, lots more torque on hand. Still, it also 'needed' new ECU, ARB bar, radio, reversing camera, tyres, head unit, etc.
Nanocom's been worth every cent along the way.

Thanks for the insights and understanding across AULRO.com
