The Landy needs a timing belt change, and the transfer case needs attention. Symbos suby needs all the belts changing, and possibley front wheel bearings, The bloody house needs a coat of paint, theres a leak in the caravan, And 1/2 hr ago the next door neighbours kid kicked a football through our garage window!!. And they wonder why i walk around with the chits at times.
My whinge for the week
Cheers Axle.

Hi Axle
4WD wear out and need more repairs more than Sedans or other vehicles. Just imagine if you are in the Middle of the Simpson and you transfer case gives up the ghost and you have to be towed into
Birdsville. Mega $ to Tow you out My last service Cost $4000.00 but I can take my vehicle out to any where with out a worry. This is not just LR it is the same with TLC AND NP. If you do not need a 4wd don't put ks on it. If you use your 4WD as a daily driver it IS wearing and it will cost you BIG BUCKS

Burbon (or whatever your favourite strong alcohol) usually helps in such situations.

Hi
John!, Know what your thinking, but i think Snailbait who was the victim of this may have had some mechanical issues with
this service, not your average oil & filter change ...LoL.

Does it ever stop?
Not while your bum points to the ground and you're still breathing.
Taken holistically, you only suffer for a very short time, them nothing matters anymore.
Whingeings good, excellent stress relief.
