I spose we can give the aussies credit for the term ute. Them Remuera tractors are a laugh though, I see so many flash harries driving around in most likely ticked up gin palace utes with all the 'serious' 4wd accessories attached. clean as the day they drove off the lot, and fancy alloy wheels.... Makes me laugh, I cant wait for the day when I get to tow some clown out with my van (then pretend im not stuck when it happens to me)

Noticed a black Ranger Raptor in front of me in town today, looked a bit overly pimped out I thought. Sadly I wonder what % will actually be used off road to anywhere near their potential. Am picking most will just be impressing milfs on the school run

the
that's all those new rangers are good for take em off road give em shit youll end up blowing an engine, the D maxs blow half shafts and rear diffs a lot. better off buying of tech 4wd with out the bells and whistles, just get a v8 land cruiser. that said I own a 08 ranger at 240k with egr removed and inlet cleaned it goes great

If its out of warranty get the EGR deleted. Not an easy job to do. There's a few places around that specialize in it though. (look up Kaiapoi Repowers or Extreme Tuning)

If its under any warranty though, leave it alone. Any mods from factory could be used an out of any claim by the warranty company.

My 25 year old hiace (1993) has just clocked 360,000km and still going strong (i mean slow, but un stoppable)
Has hilux running gear so will go most places, and has more room than a poxy ute could ever dream of having.
Also has a nice tailgate/umbrella for hiding from the rain under.

Only drawback I can see is in case of a frontal collision..... but I guess im just living in the danger zone.

Yeah the guys at repowers are good but I'm like 8 hours drive south lol.

Basically the oil residue from the breather system gets into the intake via the breather hose from the rocker cover to the intake hose, which is normally pre turbo. It does cause oily carbon deposits in the intake as well.

EGR is emission control for the EURO5/6 rules. PITA and fucks the intake up with horrible crap as you can imagine. Its a separate system to the engine breather. All ends up in the intake though.

Was impossible to remove on CR diesels until recently with some smart cookie coming up with ways to do it.

Anyone know the go to diesel guys in invercargill?
