Where is the front diff lock switch? Im pretty sure you won't have one, but if you do, only use it when necessary which is never on any road.

A front diff lock is for situations like this below.

i thought i'd seen one but i might be wrong, i'll put my specs on and have another look tomorrow!! Shocked

another switch which i've definately seen is an A/T switch, what does that one do?

Auto transmission, changing the gear changing points, I wouldn't worry about it if I was you.

i was guessing A/T stood for ALL TERRAIN, Laughing

i've also noticed that the little green lights representing the rear wheels don't light up which i assume they should do all the time, just a dead bulb maybe???

p.s. my sister lives near te puke, bay of plenty area.

Yes two blown bulbs.

are bulbs easy to get to or not really worth the hassle?

been practising changing from 2H to 4H on the move, then stopping and putting it into 4HLC the 4LLC, all seems to work ok. it takes a while for the green and yellow lights to stop flashing after moving it back to 2H, not sure if that's normal Question

another problem has popped up, not sure if anyone can help. the anti-freeze mixture was a bit weak so i took off the rad cap, syphoned about half a litre of coolant out of the radiator and replaced it with neat anti-freeze. now the low coolant light has come on and won't go off Exclamation

the plastic overflow tank was pretty empty so i've poured the other half a litre of ant-freeze in there to bring it up to the max line but the low coolant light is still on!! has anyone got any suggestions or solutions Question

As far as I know there is no "low coolant level" light, are you putting the antifreeze in the right place? Confused

hi chris, i've sussed it out now, it's the low headlamp wash light, even though it looks like a radiator, cunning these japanese!!! Very Happy

i had a problem starting it this morning, i think it might be the heater plugs but i've been told if new heater plugs don't sort it out it could be corroded / perforated fuel lines allowing the fuel system to draw air in and prevent it starting. solution apparently is to cut fuel lines off a few inches from fuel tank and replace fuel lines with central heating copper mini bore tubing connected up to tank and engine with rubber fuel hose and jubilee clips!!

have you ever come across that???
