    Certainly worth a shot. I always work on the principle that if you don't ask the question you'll never know the answer. They might surprise with their response.

    Very true Martin. With some luck something may sway Bobs way.

    Broken d4

    Well today I received the news that my SD/se will need a new "heart" at approximately $17.5k is disappointing to say the least :@ especially as it has only done 116k with regular services

    Apparently overheating issues caused by several factors, airducts removed By bull bar fitment, oil temperature sensor faulty , radiator partial blockage and running near maximum payload all added up to crankshaft failure at front end

    Doesn't the D4 have a coolant temperature gauge?
    I have been told that the D4's have a low coolant sensor fitted as a standard feature But this doesn't help if the truck isn't loosing coolant and is just running too hot.

    Terrible news!
    Running near maximum payload is not an issue! Running over it could be, but we never do that, do we?
    Who fitted bullbar? How is the radiator partially blocked? With only 116k on it I'd be looking for some answers!
