Height is your friend.
I found using a Telstra mobile phone with a plug in external antenna,it had far better reception with the antenna on the roof bar than on the front bar.
The antenna I used was a GME around 1M long.

When on the roof bar it also had better reception than the properties utes with Cel fi antennas mounted on the front bar.

Found this under the bonnet of my D4 Tdv6 - but unsure what it is or does? Its an aftermarket accessory fitted in the engine bay- any help please. Something to do with the glow plugs or something to do with the headlights would be my guess!

Found the answer its for the glow plugs and I believe is only fitted to the 3L Tdv6 not the 2.7L.

Installed my trailer LED module that I made (after my original one failed) into my D3

How much do you torque a D4 wheel nut when you’re running Tuff Ant steels? 100pound?

Pretty much I would suggest. The standard is 140Nm which is 103 pound foot.

Question re i-Drive!

I have one in the 2.7 and it transforms it (helped by the remap to 508Nm?)

Just back from my first trip in the 16.5, and I'm fast coming to query whether it needs the 1-Drive transferred across - because it doesn't seem to have any real appreciable throttle delay at roundabouts etc.

Any comments/experience from the wise here?

It will still make it much nicer.

Not sure about being wise, but I'm quite happy with the standard throttle response. It must just suit the way I drive.

That was my thought after my initial drive, but I quite like the way it works now and was interested if others have had a similar experience - unless of course, despite being unlikely given the unmolested appearance otherwise, but has the PO already had a fiddle of some kind?
