Get a windscreen shade. It'll make all the difference -- If the dash is hot, the cold air isn't as cold when it comes through the vents.

Drove Brisbane to Sunshine Coast again today. Got 5.7l/100km average fuel consumption and that was with cruise set to 120 in 100 and 130 in 110 zones ...... (So taking 10km/h overread into consideration just over the limit:tapfingers:)

Who said diesels are so fuel efficient .... bet you the trip cost me less than what a TDI would have cost .... and I could ride that petrol turbo power wave every now and then to overtake .... :biggrin:

I complained about it too and they re-gassed it, saying that there was too much gas and they put in the correct amount of 575g. It helped a bit but in 40deg heat it still struggles.

apparently the compressor is broken but they didnt have the part.

wasnt happy...but got it all sorted very nicely

Impressive. Never really liked the idea of the bonnet spray or the stripe in any other colour but red, but you've pulled it off nicely. Looks great.
