    D3 running quite well. It had it's 1000km checkup last Friday, all good though the body or something continues to creak and groan.


    MR thought it might be the sway bar bushes so lubricated those but it is still doing it. They said the body mounts rubbers were good and were tight.


    Any thoughts on what coul cause it?


    Engine is very sweet and good fuel economy. About 10.6 around town and down to 8.5 at the moment after a run down to Sanctuary Cove on Saturday.


    About 450km to the first half tank of fuel. Pretty happy with that.

    Peter,


    I will let you know the details of my struts when I get back from NZ and can look at the invoice. It took several weeks for mine to come from the UK via my indie for some reason. They ordered struts for a couple of clients at the time.


    They told me that 2012 model struts were the ones to get because they reduced the travel on D4's after that date, so not quite as good for off road and may not suit the 2010 computer.

    I am having the steering rack replaced next week along with the lower control arms so it will be interesting to find out how it drives after that.

    Hope you quote appears soon Peter.
