Thanks to MDTM
« on: 04 August 2007, 21:16:37 »

For taking the time today, despite having (or at least should have had) a decent hangover, to do a couple of little jobs I was having trouble with on tractor.

Bumper stays on now :)

We are definately losing coolant somewhere, and its not appearing to leak :(

And the mod you made has improved economy significantly on way home (which I did in 1hr 5m, and yet average consumption was increasing all the time).

Thank you :y

Your welcome as always.

And now there is a Tech 2 in Nottingham.......and I have to say that the upgrade to version 3 software on a facelift climate setup is VERY worthwhile!

Carnt remember if you checked the version on mine at the lakes?  :-[ I know you checked the g/b version....1a (10)

What difference does it make?

And as well as the help, the kind hospitality, as ever when I visit, was appreciated....

Haven't been able to get that again.  I wonder, if under the high pressure that builds up, if the rear coolant hose may weep?

The climate seems much more controlled and less intrusive, it runs at lower fan speeds for more of the time.
