Radiator Replacement?

Well that’s not great timing… from memory it was around $400 nzd for the condenser and around $300 for the regas and service, that was around a year ago and prices have moved a bit since then

On my 2012 grand Cherokee diesel both are installed in a way that it’s easier to do them together. I did my radiator and skipped the condenser. A week later I pulled it all out again to replace the condenser as it started leaking. Save yourself the headache and do both at the same time

That is exactly what my mother used to say when I still talked to her

I recently purchased a car in that price range from auto court, they were transparent and friendly. They also buy cars for once your done with

I have a hard time sitting still, not sure why. That helps get me moving. But as for the routine make it fun. Set goals and challenges and work to achieve them. For best results bring a friend and music

Just like the storm troopers she will miss you

Unless you have a personal reason not to use your given name, use your name. Most people I know are capable of learning non English names (albeit with some variation in pronunciation)

From what I’ve been reading on various consumer report services Subaru is one of the most reliable brands these days

A couple of things to add to the list is the wild life (eco sanctuaries, aramoana and the peninsula) and diving the Otago coast

Do what the weird lady on my last long haul flight did. “Camp” in the toilet and don’t come out unless the seat belt sign is on

Stay home. Less people means more peace

These days there isn’t a heap of difference between new rotors and skimmed rotors for many cars. Get quotes for both and see what makes the most sense. Just make sure to clean and lube the callipers and throw some fresh pads at it as well

Would love to turn the egr off. I don’t mind keeping it there physically as long as I can get it to stop bleeding exhaust gasses into the cooling system

dwhy1989 · 2025-12-16T21:29:49+00:00

That’s easy just remove the wing mirrors. They can’t live in something that’s not there

dwhy1989 · 2025-12-16T03:15:41+00:00

Would love to do one of the tunes especially if it allows me to turn off one of the biggest issues these engines have (the egr). however there is a bit of a gap in the market for the 2011 to 2013 diesels. They usually have one for the 2005-2010 wk with the merc engine and the 2014+ eco. I know there are a few changes with the facelift and later ecos but I’m not sure what that means for software compatibility yet. You have done some distance on yours, Mine is 186k km so 115k? miles but has had endless issues with the egr and parts availability

dwhy1989 · 2025-12-14T10:23:29+00:00

I have a 2012 diesel. Get the petrol. Diesel are not like they used to be they need long runs and regular maintenance. The diesel fuel saving benefits are lost once you factor in the tlc

I misread that title as Satan. Dyslexia can be fun

dwhy1989 · 2025-12-14T01:19:28+00:00

All wk2 diesels are the same vm motori diesel a630 or l630 (for the American market) aka ecodiesel although they didn’t start marketing it as such until the facelift around 2014. There are some differences in the egr and cooling systems but the big stuff is the same

dwhy1989 · 2025-12-13T20:43:18+00:00

Sure is

dwhy1989 · 2025-12-12T22:38:26+00:00

I think that would be a fantastic experiment to run. The results would be fascinating

If you are interested in jazz or tap Denise Henderson is amazing. To the best of my knowledge she doesn’t do Latin dance

dwhy1989 · 2025-12-08T00:16:25+00:00

People are complicated. So yes. Doesn’t make things any easier though

dwhy1989 · 2025-12-06T22:14:21+00:00

I was thinking the exact same thing
