Thread: Glinde/Twine Shower on a TD5

Anybody running a Glinde or Twine hot water shower on a TD5 Defender? (or Disco)

The problem I'm experiencing is the water only goes luke warm when the engine is at operating temperature. The only way I can get the water to rise in temp. is if I up the revs .. which basically renders the shower useless.

Speaking to a few Yota and Nissan guys they use their showers even when the engine is turned off. The engine temp and heat exchanger still generates hot water.

Is the operating tem lower on a TD5 compared to jap motors? Anybody running my setup with better results?

I've looked at the installation and there isn't much you can do wrong ... I'm scratching my head here!

Any help/suggestions?

Henry -- turn the heater controls to hot and also turn the fan on. I find it gets too hot and need to be careful not to get burnt.

Let me know how you go.
