TFT screen noisey

Just installed a 7" DVD/GPS Touch screen in the Mrs daily driver. Whenever the screen is on/lit up it has a high pitch buzz constantly. U can turn the screen off with music still going and the noise goes away. Was wondering how this could be rectified? Need ideas. Thanks fellas :D

I fitted 40mm lifted king springs, the car rides slightly stiffer than factory. The bar doesnt affect handling at all, is really not that heavy. I think tho if a winch is fitted it may make a difference.

Difference between H3 & H7 bulbs

Is there much difference between H3 and H7 bulbs. I was looking at gettin Spotties with h3 lamps and can get a H7 HID conversion kit for a good price. What would be required? Otherwise would I have to get H3 HID lamps too?

My reverse light switch (side of gearbox) had a short in it causing the engine fuse to blow. That stopped the injector pump cutting out and i just stalled the car til i worked it out. Hope that helps.

I've got an 08 diesel, too early to tell if reliability will be an issue. As to mods, you are limited in what can be modified, both by the cars design and what the suppliers have on offer (TJM don't have anything for new GVs, ARB have springs, but no struts, and a snorkel, nothing else).

D22 Navara Question

Lookin at buying a D22 Navara turbo diesel, as they seem to be the best priced for what you get. What are the main things to look for? Did they have the same problems with the 3L in the Navara as they did in the GU's? Cheers.
