Thread: Td5 service. Thoughts?

Well....
Full fluid swap out, replaced ATF cooler and hoses, general service items.
$2000 bill later and the Disco is running like a dream
AND mum didn't kill me when I told her how much I forked out...
She must be coming down with something
Cheers for all the info guys, I'll get the rest sorted out some other time

Take the cooler off and replace 'O' rings in each end while you're at it.

All well and good if you have your grandfathers old nail pincers, and the facilities to grind them to the required shape. Lacking both, the clic-r pliers at around $18 seem a pretty reasonable way to go.

If you use pliers (and perhaps small pincers) the o-ring replacement can be done with the cooler in place.
