Thats correct.

You certainly picked a great day to be doing your first service on it!!

Hope it all goes well and reasonably quickly so you can get out of the heat!

Good luck,

Thanks matey, all went very well actually!!!! first car i did a service on and everything went smoothly, GOTTA LOVE UR LANDY!!!!!!!!

all there is left now is grease up the nipples on the uni's and have a look at the coolant situation. a bit worried about that dont know where to start and my rave cd is on its way.

would anyone know the exact procedure to change the coolant from green to red????

waiting for my rave cd to come in the mail but need to change it later on and dont know where to start. is there a drain plug some where on the d1?????

cheers simon

Sorry gotta ask should you be servicing your car when you dont know which sump is for the engine
Dont get me wrong its good your asking , but should you be undertaking such a task with out someone with knowledge and not to be relying on the web incase something goes pear shaped
I wish you luck and yes the sump towards the front of the car is for the engine it is attached to the engine ?

i had a fair idea on which one it was, i just thought i'd do myself the favour and get a second opinion as this is my first deisel truck.

cheers for your concern though

Gotta learn somehow. It'll be ok, theres nothing thats rocket science in there. I would also say that there are a hell of a lot of us that learnt how to do things by just having a go.
