I have no way to monitor them but on the hill I was driving up when the problem occurred you are probably on the money.

It went fine today towing a trailer which is a little heavier than I expected for about 800 highway k's.

I will reassess my options at a later date.

The guy I spoke to at Roo Systems said it may have been a DTS (?) burn which apparently they all do at some stage and it brings up the restricted performance fault, although this seems strange to me as it has never done that before.

I assume it was a DPF (diesel particulate filter) burn that he meant.

That makes sense, I was on a mobile and about to walk in the pub door so may have misheard

You probably didn't really care if you were about to walk in the pub!

Also very unlikely you have a DPF so don't accept that as the likely reason.

This should help you clarify whether you have a DPF or not...

As Sean said...it's very unlikely.

Good to hear the travelling is going OK though......

Interesting, cheers.

Exactly

Plus, it is my wife's car anyway.
Mine is a 92 Troopy and the only electronics are the ones I have fitted such as stereo and UHF.
