Could you not change the type of hitch you have on the caravan for something that doesn't stick up as high? Probably cheaper than looking at new spare wheel mounts. Also means you're not reducing the...

From memory the timing belt did need changing. I had mine done at a 90,000km as I was getting some strange noises (which I think was one of the pulleys). The timing belt itself is not massively...

Never really heard of injector issues, though that doesn't mean they don't exist. Mine had 140,000km on it when I sold it and I'd never had an issue with them. The timing belt is a fairly costly...

The CRD's seem to be like/need to be driven hard from what I can gather. Examples that have easy lives and lots of freeway km's seem to run into trouble around 150000km with oil getting through the...

As JusyApples said, a lot of the really bright colours weren't launched until later. I bought an MY10 in late 09 and also went with silver. I've got an old catalogue from when I bought and the colour...

At the end of the day what makes a good tow vehicle is not what makes a good DD and is not what makes a good 4WD. If you want to use a vehicle for 2 or even all 3 of these things then there will be...

I towed a cub camper with my CRD auto. Probably weighed about 1.2T. I didn't have a extra transmission cooler fitted so it struggled with overheating, even on cool days. The first sign of a hill and...

What I don't get is how they can effectively stop providing the previous service retrospectively, i.e. they kill all existing links (unless you upgrade). If they want to change their business model...

I think that's the secret with the CRD's. Make them work, be it towing or driving them reasonably hard. Don't baby them and drive them for economy. The VM Motori 2.8 motor doesn't seem to like it....

At 130,000km I can pretty much guarantee that you'll need new ball joints. A lot of folks are lucky to get 30,000km out of the stock ball joints. By 130,000km I was onto my 3rd set of ball joints,...

That can depend on a few factors.

I had a 2-2.5" lift with flexi coils, longer 4" Fox shocks, and was running 285/70/17 tyres on standard rims. With my combo I needed an adjustable front panhard...

The lack of left leg space was something I noticed when I first got mine but I got used to it fairy quickly. That said I'd be lying if I said that even after 6 years of owning it that it wasn't still...

There are certain things you can do that are still legal. Usually a 2" lift and 33's on a JK should be legal (depending on which state you're in). If you go outside of your state's legal mods then...

You can use 4Hi once off tarmac. You can change into 4Hi at anything under 80km/hr, but once it is in 4Hi you can go at any speed you want for any length of time you want. No risk of damaging...

No.

Full time 4WD is basically 4Hi (unlocked) all of the time, and then you have the option to lock the centre diff to give you 4Hi (locked) when you need it (when you get off the tarmac).

Correct. All 4 wheels would need to turn at different rates as you go around a corner. Front and rear diff's allow the 2 wheels on the same axel to turn at different rates but the transfer case will...

Not a pointless comparison at all in this context. I was comparing their 4WD systems; one being a part time 4WD and one being a full time 4WD, as the OP was asking about the differences. Could have...
