Thanks Trailfirst. Yup, reading a bit more about the top strut mounts and there are some suggestions it's actually a single-use item, even though Jeep doesn't officially specify it as such. Adds a...

Thanks TR Laredo and Trailfirst. A few pointers from you in the right direction plus a bit more trawling the interwebs and now I'm feeling somewhat qualified.

A massive +1 to this. You could reasonably argue that there isn't really anything else directly comparable.

If the KL was a Toyota or a Mazda, I reckon it would sell like hot cakes. But because...

I also own the diesel. Coming up to 3 years and 55,000km. No problems and a great car -- very glad I purchased.

I swapped out the original tyres at 1000km (also to Geolander AT GO12), but that's...

Nice to hear from a fellow Canberran. :) Although we must live in different parts -- I don't think I've seen another diesel yet. Your 7.5 is pretty much my around-town average too. Although I'm...

Holy hell! The sticker quotes 9.3 combined for the petrol engine, but we all know how (un)achievable those numbers usually are in the real world -- irrespective of the brand. Even 'extra urban' is...

The Disco Sport probably qualifies as a 'soft roader', seeing as it doesn't have even a centre diff lock (AFAIK) nor low range.

Condo, have you refilled that tank yet and noted the litres to gauge the accuracy of the trip computer? The EVIC's suggesting a total range of 877km. If you were actually getting 6.2L/100km, the...

My latest tank included less stop-start, as well as some country driving, and showed a more respectable 7.0 on the EVIC. Still a bit of a real-world disconnect, though, with the manual calculation...

Mate, I would be surprised if it fits. Do you have 17in or 18in rims?

I have a Limited diesel and went from the stock 225/55/18 to 225/65/17 all-terrains. When I did the changeover, the tyre...

+1 the bigger diesel. The 2.2L available in Europe is 150kw and 440nm, and actually has slightly better fuel economy than the 2.0L. That's an attractive proposition.

The KL is definitely close...
