well i finally bit the bullet and brought the GDE Tune and installed it today.
a couple of things noticed is its definitely noisier only slightly but noticeable, also a little more vibration than normal.
But holy crap does it go, i thought it went good before. it cruises around real easy with the slightest of throttle input now so much better cause you dont have to plant your foot to get it to do anything so much more responsive. it feels alot nibbler and lighter to drive which i dont mind but i did like the planted feel it used to give. and ive only been on a short drive and my avg fuel has dropped by 0.4l/100km already BONUS, be interesting to see if it drops much more.
So over all fairly happy with it at this stage considering i only went for a short run.

Nothing exciting done to mine.
I did do it's first filter and oil change, and having owned for less than a month, it was interesting to have a look around etc.
I have received my BlueDriver scan tool, and it works well.
Oh, I picked up some Rhino Roof bars so now I can actually carry something if I want.
And am going out on my first offroad adventure this weekend in the Jeep with some experienced mates, so removed the front bumper lip. Will probably also remove the rear mud flaps as they hang rather low.
Cheers

New tires soon. Wondering if anyone has squeezed 275.65.17 under the arches with the Commander Wrench wheels.? The rims would give an extra 7mm and as I have heard and seen 265.65.17 on std rims I am a little hopeful... any comments.?

Woohoo! Fitted the LCA's last weekend, wheels aligned and feeling a lot better! No more squeaks turning or rocking it up and down. All bolts loosened/removed very easily. Only drama was that the rear bushing not sitting flush (see pic) and couldn't turn it due to it being rubber and springing back into place. Was very hard to get into position but finally managed to get a bolt up through and tighten it down into place.

Hey Guys.
My first mod to the CRD was done on the weekend.
Installed the Silicone T Piece in place of the original Orange Seal.
The seal was really soft and had oil on all surfaces.
The Orange PCV inlet seal was so loose you slide and wiggle it around with no effort at all.
Cutting the end off of the plastic intake pipe was a no going back moment, but, I have done that on other cars before LOL.
Anyway, some pics of the finished job.
