Howdy all,

Just thought I'd pop in and say G'day! I've just registered to this forum today whilst sniffing around for some info on my 95 GQ 2.8 TDI.

I've been the proud owner of the old girl for about 8 years now, I'm originally from North Qld, and now in Perth. I spent about 8 weeks driving my old girl 3/4 of the way around this glorious country a few years ago and ended up in the Wild West. My patrol is mint, I bought a standard model and have spent quite a few pennies on different things to get her up to the standard that I wanted. And you'll all be happy to know she hasn't skipped a beat!(aside from downtime for routine maintenance) I have done most of the work myself aside from a few things I didn't have the technical knowledge about!

Anyway, happy to be here and will hopefully be able to share some tricks and a bit of knowledge where I can!

Peace out!

Being a 2.8 TDI, I have a nasty habit of bogging down in the powder without dropping down to about 12psi. In saying that, last time I went for a beach run was up at loonies with an old clutch and some suspension issues...
