Mine does that too, especially when I hit a bump in the road. I’ve triple and quadruple checked my connections, pretty sure it is an internal fault. Interestingly, mine is a double gauge and only the channel I have hooked up to the coolant temp is faulty, the EGT channel works just fine.

Interesting. My gauge has been in place for about 4 years with no issues until recently. Wonder if it is a sender fault vs. gauge? Further investigation required and perhaps a call out to Auber.

Yeah I think it kinda sounds like a cold solder on yours or something if it’s bumps. I feel like programming or something on mine. It does it a few times a year and a simple unhook resets it.

Yeah my boost is much more common with shows 28.1 and a cycle of the key resets it to work.
Honestly they work but I don’t have the most faith in them. I know mechanical gauges gonna as well, but I think it’s much less often.

If these mess up again, I will Probabaly look at mechanical isspro or something.

Oy ya c@nts! How many Ks on your Land Cruzah?

Moonlight photos? Yeah not so great on an iPhone…

No real projects on the cruiser, too busy with other projects.

Timing belt, radiator and thermostat on my 2006 tundra. The belt was 9 years old and 110k and looked and felt brand new.

Seized compress on my wife’s sienna…that sucked. Expansion valve behind intake…rear one tucked in blower

Makes me appreciate the simplicity of my cruiser….sure it’s not a leather couch with reclining chairs, widescreen tv, hauling 7
People comfortably at 85mph getting 23mpg….but it’s sure a lot cooler!

Getting ready for a longer work trip than last time! Planning my route in Wyoming.

Thought id at least post the lyrics to the Land CruZar song

How Many Ks?
Goin’ down town in my LandCruZar
Tryin’ to find a park for my LandCruZar
This carpark was made for a car
Not the turning circle of a LandCruZar.
Then I met Mick in his mesh-back cap
He’s got two stripes on his mesh-back cap
He’s got conveyor for my new mudflap
No better man for a bit of mudflap
I says ‘Mick’, he goes ‘Yeah’, I go

CHORUS
‘How many ks on your LandCruZar?’
‘I got two fiddy on my LandCruZar’
‘It’s just run in that LandCruZar’
‘You put a million clicks on a LandCruZar’.

Fly in’ down the Battlecamp road
Just ran over another cane toad
Foot flat to the floor and down a hill
See if the old girl’s got it still
Look at the dash, gotta shake me head
I’m over the limit in me 1hZ.
But I heed the law and I slow right down
Cops pull me up comin’ into town
I know this fella, it’s Sergeant Dan
He says ‘You got any contraband?’
I say ‘Nah mate, not me, I’m all kosher
You might find a soggy Bunnings brochure
Or an ant’s nest in a 4X can
But you won’t find any contraband’.
He found some wing ding bones from a trip to Cairns
He says ‘Awh now I gotta go wash me hands
But there’s one thing that I’d like to know
Just before I let you go’
He goes ‘Steve’, I go ‘Yeah’, he goes

Chorus
‘How many ks on your LandCruZar?’
‘I got two fiddy on my LandCruZar’
‘It’s just run in that LandCruZar’
‘You put a million clicks on a LandCruZar’.
Yeah nah Cru-Zar parts are never too far
When you’re driving round on the PDR
Ain’t no need for a torsion bar
Got a solid front diff on my LandCruZar.
The Irish barmaid’s mouth was ajar
When she saw the mud on my LandCruZar
We pull our seats into the bar
She came back with a cold schooner
She said ‘Lads’, we said ‘Yeah’, she goes

Chorus
‘How many ks on your LandCruZar?’
‘I got two fiddy on my LandCruZar’
‘It’s just run in that LandCruZar’
‘You put a million clicks on a LandCruZar’
‘What do you pay for a LandCruZar?’
‘You might pay a little bit more than a car’
‘Well I think that I might upgrade from a car’
‘They hold their value the LandCruZar, ah, ah, ah, LandCruZar’.

Every single Cru-Zar got a dud handbrake
Every two weeks you gotta fix your handbrake
A Patrol’s way better than a LandCruZar
Patrol got a better handbrake by far
The missus says ‘Trade that LandCruZar’, I say
‘Babe a Patrol’s not a LandCruZar’.

Trace pulls up in a smoko van
She got a sweet Tojo for a smoko van
You say: ‘Ah curry pie, tomato sauce
Kabana with cheese, tomato sauce
Thanks Trace’. You get chattin
You go ‘Trace’, she goes ‘Yeah’, you go
Chorus

‘How many ks on your LandCruZar?’
‘I got two fiddy on my LandCruZar’
‘It’s just run in that LandCruZar’
‘You put a million clicks on a LandCruZar, ah, ah, ah, LandCruZar’.
