Actually it was a faulty sensor in the auto trans cooling line [to radiator];) ....also got a 95 RR, so very used to investigating/detecting/dismissing-as-liars those little lights:)
BTW, thanks heaps n heaps Mick n Chris for showing me [n others] around the dunes n the forest.....best fun in a L-R I've had in a long time!!!!.....and met heaps of really great guys!!- n chiks too!:)
spent my fair share of time up there on a couple of different trikes over the last 25yrs. had some pretty nasty accidents, from somersaulting backwards down a narrow track to end up with the trike on top of me leaking petrol to riding to the top of a dune in an area i wasn't familiar with and have the lip of the dune collapse, taking me and the trike right to the bottom into a sand-mining operation. luckily no broken bones but my left ankle still clicks.
good to see you guys came to the rescue. a year or two a go i was up there on my first day out after fixing the front brakes. they jammed on on the soft sand just before you climb onto the dunes. my mate, who was carrying the tools had shot off ahead without knowing i was stuck. i struggled to drag the thing off the track as far as i could but not totally. i was trying to borrow a spanner off a passing 4wd, but out of the 25 cars i asked, only 1 had a spanner and it was a 3"shifter of dubious quality. most of them yelled abuse at me for blocking the track, not even asking if i needed help. needless to say, most of these were toyotas and nissans with fat bald idiots sporting goaties with a ciggie hanging out of their mouths....no wonder so many people hate 4wders if thats the image we portray.
thank god for landrover drivers.
keep up the good work
*clean up stockton day coming up*
what dunes in the forest ?
for those foreigners, stockton comprises a strip of pretty much, bare sand dunes, about 1-2km wide running up the beach. inland from that, the dunes still exist but are heavly wooded, similar to fraser island but not as nice . some patches of this area open up into bare sand dunes and usually end up as isolated playgrounds for quads etc as some of the access tracks are too tight for a 4wd. this is where i came to grief
