First thing on the to-do list is replacing the thermostat/water pump as the coolant temp is struggling to stay above 70C.

Then I'll be going through the brakes, as they are a little throbby despite low miles on them.

Next up, new rear air springs. They droop overnight.


Then, here eventually, I hope to do a DPF delete.


This is my wife's DD and our family truckster, so anything I can do to maximize the MPGs from the diesel is key.


Should I do an introduction thread? I've been lurking on here a while, but now I'm officially an owner!
