Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Up until about a week ago my 06 RA diesel would start straight away even on the coldest of mornings. Now first thing in the morning it is really hard to start. It cranks over for about 5 seconds before it finally fires, then for the rest of the day now the engine is warm it starts straight away. To ...

If you use the shift on the fly to engage 4wd whilst moving you wont notice any noise. You should only hear a slight clunk when engaging 4wd low and this is normal.

Have changed the tyres on my RA Rodeo over to 265/75 r16. Now my speedo is out by enough to be annoying. Jaycar sell a kit for electronic speedos that correct the speedo and odometer. Now does anyone know if the speedo in the RA is electronic or mechanical or even better has anyone tried this kit ...

I have got an 06 RA diesel 4x4. For me and the family it makes a great tourer and is great in the sand, but if you start to get into fairly rough stuff compared to a hilux you will be short on ground clearance. I end up draging the rear end on everything. Day to day it is easy to live with and is ...

I take it if they fit the dmax they will fit my RA Rodeo. Let me know if this is so and a price would be helpfull. Oh yeah do they clamp to the chassi rail or bolt to brackets that are welded to the rail.



Thanks Matt Gray

I have got a metabo 5" and a makita 5" the father in law has got a Dewalt they have all had a hard life without a problem. The Dewalt has got a small toggle switch(on/off) in the base that is hard to use when wearing welding gloves. But the two others have slide switches on the side that are very ...

Standard fittment on my RSturbo liberty , been running 15pds boost for nearly 280000 kms with out missing a beat.

Ok you got me curious, what are you going to do with the other 9 litres of brake fluid becouse I cant see you using more than 1 litre. And it looks like it does not matter what fluid is in car all ready dot3 and dot 4 can be mixed . Thanks everybody for their replies.[quote][/quote]

Until the guy behind the counter at the service department reads the sign above the front door that says "SERVICE" and realises that he is there to provide some sort of service we wont be going back there until hell freeses over. Rant and winge over. Now back to the first post, Is there any problem ...

since my rodeo was serviced at the stealership for its 40000km service I dont know what brake fluid they put in it ie dot3 or dot4. So can the two be mixed or do i have to drain the whole system to put more brake fluid in without knowing what is in there. The car was serviced only 5000km ago so the ...

But it is out of warranty..... Does that count????

If the booster was shagged wouldnt you just get a really hard pedal with no feel and not a pedal that goes to the floor, since there is no brake fluid in the booster so it cant leak internally or externally and allow the peddl to go to the floor

Does it all the time,consistantly the same ,even just sitting in the driveway at home

The car is a 2006 diesal rodeo.Done 45000km. Today the brake pedal started to go all the way to the floor if held on for 7 to 10 seconds. The resivor is full of fluid and no signs of a leak. With the engine off you can pump the pedal back up and hold it and it stays at the top, then holding the ...

Can you fit 50mm raised leaves to the back of a 2006 rodeo with out chainging the shock absorbers straight away or will they be to short at full extension . I know that you can wind the front up with out new shocks just wondering about the back .
