Hi everyone,
Just joined this forum after finding some useful tech data in other threads.
I am located in Namibia and currently own a 2005 4.2 diesel 100 - series.
Currently at 248000km, 15000km travelled around the country since I purchased it in Q1 2024.
It was in reasonably good condition (no rust here
) but needed a lot of preventive maintenance, roads are rough on cars here!
Here is a recap of the work done in the last 12 months:
- Full service and all fluids
- CV axles + flanges
- Front suspension bushings & ball joints
- Steering rack bushings & tie-rod ends
- Front wheel bearings
- Diff bushing
- Gearbox oil + strainer
- Transfer case / gearbox oil seals
It drives great but I still have a persisting suspension knock that I cannot trace, identical to the one in the 2x threads (I will respond directly there).
Attached a few pictures !
Martin
