"Tonka" a 2007 D3 HSE

Well I drove it home today from Oslo, 560 km.

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Love it to bits, and Mrs CnW and the kids like it too.

I have to make a trip to the local stealer because

1) The steering is vague, feels loose, I think a ball joint or bushes,

2) The tyres (Pirelli 255/55R19) screech like an american police car chase even on low speeds in roundabouts any ideas

3) I found a loose relay in the back of the car in the panel where the towbar is kept, probably needs to be plugged in the loose socket, but I want a tech to look at it first incase "The space was left intentional blank"

Ps the Disco3.co.uk stickers arrived today so they will go on tomorrow

As promised -

Tonka got new tyres today.

Goodyear Wrangler MTR 255/55R19 - G4 tyres Very Happy

Tonka has had the windows tinted and club stickers NLRK (Norwegian Landrover klubb) og disco3.co.uk

Tonka was very happy with the new tyres..

We had alot of trouble to balance one of the front wheels the balance machine was showing 150g of weight. We found the wheel to be warped, so we swapped it with the spare - has anyone experienced this ?

Finally got round to doing the Sat Nav upgrade today, thanks Wiggs. Thumbs Up

Mounted the 2" receiver and this is obviously necessary in Scotland today, when the locking rear doesnt give enough traction this cuts in.......
