Hi guys, Just got a set of D40 Outback Ideas recovery points off ebay. When fitting I found that on taking out the old bolts I damaged the threads on 2 of the bolts (1 each side). :suicide2: Replaced the bolts and 1 side (passenger) is all good and torqued up nicely. The other side has 1...

Biscuits sorry to hear about your little one too mate. Deepest sympathies to you and family. Murph

Is the leak coming from a split in a rubber boot on the steering arm? I have had a similar problem. Ends up that I punctured the boot in a mud Hole and got some nice mud inside. This has worn out the seal in the steering rack and I am leaking a reasonable amount of fluid til I get it repaired (...

Done this a few weeks ago and so far have not noticed too much on accelleration / power low down but fuel economy improved from 11.4 l/100k to 10.8 l/100k. I haven't reset the ECU since it was changed. Will probably do that after another tank when I reconfirm fuel consumption. Murph

Just take each plug out and check it visually. If there is corrosion/burning/wear on the tip replace it. There - now you don't have to buy a new multi-meter :big_smile: I didn't have a multi-meter and had to do this after 100k - 120k miles on my old 1.9 TD Citroen. Not sure how east they are...

I bought my 08 D40 from their Used car place but never used the main dealership for servicing. I usually do my own fluids and filters. I will get in contact with them about the alloy wheel issue though. If you do use them for the service please post up how it goes. Regards Murph
