The gaskets are re-usable, they are of plastic with a rubber moulded seal on
both sides. A smear of some kom gom Whistle and A for away.
gerhardt I have 8 sets at the moment, of which I think 5 have been booked,
more can still be cut Mr. Green As for the warrentee issue I have two views
1) Don't screw around with the electrics.
2) Fiddle with the mechanicals.
The EGR is a mechanical valve controlled by electronics and the environment
in which it works in makes it a problem part. By blanking it off you eliminate
the carbon build up on the valve, now LR do not have to fit a new one and
have changed plenty. At the end of the day we are saving LR money,
screwing the GREENS and looking after our vehicles. With that said,
if you got a real hardegat dealer, then yes, they could pull the warrentee,
and I'll put money on it, he will loose a lot of bussiness Rolling with laughter

OK OK.. so to assist Heine and Koos here with some instructions from the breakfast team:

Heine: I know how to get to your place Thumbs Up
Can I ask you to organise the toaster and bread for some toast? Question

IronMan to provide: Skottel, Beacon, Eggs

Deon: be a fart and bring us 2 tins of baked beans Mr. Green

Koos: You da blank man - bring them plates Thumbs Up

Baben: Coffee & Bangers Question Think you can organise the coffee Question You seem to always have the good stuff Thumbs Up

OK so that gives us, Beacon, eggs, bangers, beans (for extra gas) and some toast... that should set us up Thumbs Up

As per Heine, let's get there for 10 sharp so we can get the breaky going and the engines cool...

EVERYONE: Bring your own camp chair, plate and cutlery etc.. don't want to leave Heine with them dishes Laughing
Further to that you supply your own beverages - cold ones!

Hope that everyone is in agreement with this and remember:

Guys don't worry about cutlery , chairs etc.

I also have skottel so 2 means twice as fast

To get to my place is dead easy . Take the Allandale turnoff off the N1 . Head towards the quarry (Kempton Park direction) . After you go under the Gautrain bridge turn left into Alsation Road . Drive all the way up and my house is at the top of the intersection . (N0 17)

BTW this is what happens if you don't stop

I only just read the instructions - sorry about the missing coffee, thanks to Heine it was no problem.

Guys, a lekker day, much fun was had.

Heine thanks for hosting, Koos thanks for overseeing the process.

What's next? Whistle
