    Apart from the exhaust, that looked like it was all factory parts too.

    Great conversion!
    Cheers

    It's a bolt in conversion which is the best part.

    Seems like you need a newish D4 to get the canbus to talk and an even newer one if you want the eight speed box, still a great conversion though.

    Always thought this would be an awesome conversion. D4 would be the perfect platform. Engine was wasted in the RR Sport imo. TDv8 D4 would be a keeper.

    D3 works and early D4, later D4 is the issue with canbus.

    I haven’t contacted them to discuss it but have looked at the web site and according to that it has been done and they advise it as an option
    bit scared to get pricing…

    I would definitely be interested for 'round two' if it ever came up. One snapped crank is enough per lifetime I think. Looking at the all the other options for a big 4wd leave me cold..........
