    Oh the shame!!

    My D3 is, as the dealer put it to Landrover UK, "VOR", meaning Vehicle Off Road, due do the EGR cooling hose rubbing through on the power steering pulley. Landrover do not have a spare hose in Oz so VOR to the UK and a hose will be Air Expressed out to get the vehicle back on the road.

    In the meantime The dealer gave me a loaner to keep me on the road..............................A Musso Kyron...............what a POS..........

    This is very embarrassing to be seen driving...................................

    ........................But I have been able to overcome the problem........

    What a vote of confidence when a dealers' loaner is another brand.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.
