Y61 Gearbox Mapping Issue

At the end of last year, I did a "stage 1" conversion, which encompassed the incorporation of a snorkel to obtain cooler air, a complete free flow system, and engine mapping. However, due to time constraints, gearbox mapping was left incomplete as we ran out of time on the eve of our holid...

Re: Unsolved Steering Shudder

Took it to G-tech for a major service yesterday, and they resolved the issue by adjusting the wheel bearings.

The previous indie and Patrol specialist as stated did the same, but the issue remained. Guess they just had an off day as we all do.

Thank you for all the feedback and help.

Unsolved Steering Shudder

I have a shudder on the steering around 100 km/h and its both ways, so when you brake, and when you accelerate. I can't seem to solve this issue. 1) Wheel bearings (first mechanic I took it to said the wheel bearings were a bit loose.) - This did not fix the issue. 2) Wheel alignment - This did not ...

Mounting Bike Rack To Old Spare Wheel Bracket On Back Door

Has anyone seen this type of conversion done or a COTS product? I am looking at converting to 35 inch wheels on the Patrol, and from what I could see online, the 35 spare won't fit on the back door anymore. The option is there to install it on an aftermarket rear bumper. But I don't mind putting the...

Re: Ryan/Darth

Hi All, Apologies for the slow response. Below pic, I took with the first mods complete. I installed the roof rack last week. I had some stuff lying around from a previous build that I transferred to this one. Highlift jack, water tank with tap on the rack, and also jerry cans. Planning to install s...

Steering Shudder on Highway

Hi All, As per my intro, I am the proud new owner of a teenager Patrol. 2016 with only 65k km on the clock. I picked it up yesterday and, on my way back, noticed a shudder when I brake at high speeds. Low speeds this is not an issue. I am not a car guru, but from what I can recall, this could be war...

Hi All, I am a proud new owner of a teenager model Patrol. It's 2016 with 65k km on the clock. Y61 GRX 4.8 We are moving to the EU end of 2023, and I wanted a vehicle that I could put in storage here in SA once we have left that I know would also last the next 20 years. So that we can use it when vi...
