I went a different way
Seeing that we have not had any D4's land in SA yet and that I'm a petrol-head at heart I traded in my oil burner on a new V8 . Took delivery today and my permagin is now a megapermagrin
Off to change my profile

It can't be that big or you would have not forgotten to change your profile I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

Can't do much for the V8 other than slap in a filter, which I believe has been done
besides, with Heine behind the wheel you might want to try slow it down as much as you can

I don't know what you pay for petrol in SA, in europe it is expensive.
I put already more then 9000 euro on petrol in my G4D3 in a year and that is for about 38000 km
Luckely the company pays me a mileage allowence that just pays for the fuel.Roel
