What did you do to your WH/XH today?

I believe all those share the 5V circuit with the engine oil pressure sender. Sometimes a fault in the pressure sender can cause downstream sensors to throw codes ("circuit low", etc.) while the pressure sender itself doesn't.

MDS would've been disabled with the codes, consumption at 110 without it can be quite high. I'm not surprised that it was better going a little slower on the country roads. If the EGR valve is stuck partially open that might contribute too.

Thanks James, I'll have a look into that sensor too!

Changed my starter motor today... well changed my starter motor ALL day!!!
Before I changed the starter I had to remove a few things that were in the way.
Battery
Battery tray
Bash plate
Front left wheel
Left inner guard liner
Front prop shaft
Engine mount
Remove front diff mounting bolts and let it hang so I could reach the bottom 2 bolts of the left engine mount.
Finally the starter motor.
Then reverse the process, started at 10am finished at 4pm.
I'm getting to old for this

Oh! and it all works perfectly now, the old starter was well and truly worn out, had at least 5mm play in the throw shaft.

Did my front and rear sway bar bushes on the weekend.
Front were easy the rears not so straight forward. had troubles trying to push the sway bar up whilst trying to get the bolts in the holes. Also the passenger side has the fuel tank in the way so when the top bolt is fully loosened you cant get the socket wrench out.Have to use a ringy in there.
I also couldn't get the bracket to sit full flush back on the diff its almost like the bush was to big for the bracket. At the moment the bottom is flush but the top is about 5mm off and the bolt is tight! The bushes are crown ones im thinking ill drive it around this week and the rubber might squish a bit and might be able to tighten it more over the weekend. I tried loosing the bottom one off and doing it evenly too but no luck.
Car drives heaps better! not clunks anymore and steering feels much more crisp and tight. Highly recommend doing your fronts cheap and easy!

Just received my JBA UCA direct from JBA offroad ended up costing me $695 aus inc delivery to my door and delivery took 3 days....
The service from JBA is outstanding as well, gets back to you straight away, extremely helpful. Dont want to bag out Australia but im yet to deal with Australian stores that offer the same service as i get from International stores. I wont mention names but people just never return calls, never reply to emails take forever to get stuff, prices are outrageous. Anyways enough rant!
These control arms are a pretty serious piece of work, i was sceptical to buy them at first because of the price but they are definatly well made. Especially the ball joint!
What grease did you guys put in yours? Does it need to be anything special?

Which purchase option did you use? Amazon or direct? DHL express? Very close to pulling the trigger on these as well.

i just did the DHL express on their actual site. took 3 buisness days which is pretty impressive!
