The truck comes with no tray, and the rear proportional valve comes set for no load, once loaded you will find the rear brakes wont be working very well. Col at Ridgeline pointed out to me that the proportioning Valve should be adjusted once you fit a body and load the truck up. Epson Stylus Photo R1800 Printer Software. The valve really is not needed at all because the ABS will control any rearwheel skid caused by light loading. It is not even fitted to the 2. Diff Breathers. The diff breathers are made from dissimilar metals and tend to corrode together, on delivery my rear diff pinion seal was leaking as was another new truck I crawled under I unscrewed my diff breather and found I could not blow air through it either way, upon closer inspection its actually a one way valve which to me just seems wrong, I bought a set of aftermarket diff breather from ARB which are a direct replacment the white filter thing circled in the above photo. Iveco Daily Repair Manual' title='Iveco Daily Repair Manual' />Subsequently replaced with a diff breather kit from ebay which extends the front and rear breather hoses and breathers up under the bonnet. I had the rear pinion seal replaced by Melbourne Truck Center under warranty, and they had no problems with the aftermarket breather kit. Key Fob windows. Something you wont find in the owners instruction manual. Transferring Fuel. Dont transfer fuel from AUX tank into main tank whilst driving. No more missed important software updates UpdateStar 11 lets you stay up to date and secure with the software on your computer. Bridgend Group is one of the largest independent used car retailers in Scotland. Note The price displayed for this vehicle 10980. VAT., 2 speed intermitten. I was running low on fuel and started pumping on the go, AUX tank gauge showed about 12 tank had been pumped into the main tank but Main gauge kept going down until warning light came on, and 5. I pulled over and stopped for 1. I emptied a jerry can into the main tank, then Fuel level showed 34 I have rewired AUX fuel pump to only pump whilst stopped have wired in a timer, pumps 2. The check light is not in the handbook, Iveco service centers often misdiagnose a flashing check light. It is usually above the radio, or relocated below as shown in the case of an aftermarket 2 Din radio. The check light relates to the Hydraulic Fluid reservoir in the APU aka Hydraulic diff lock pump, under the metal cover above the spare wheel. If you have low or leaking hydraulic fluid the light will flash. The self test protocol also illuminates the check light when the truck is started. If you need to add fluid and dont have an obvious leak then the fluid is leaking into one of the diffs. The Hydraulic fluid is a specific Synthetic fluid known as Tutela G1R almost unobtainable in Australia, even at Iveco dealers. Penrite LDAS is more easily obtainable equivalent Synthetic Hydraulic fluid, 4. EDIT Update 2. 01. Center Diff Lock seal in the transfer case has failed, causing Hydraulic fluid to leak into the Transfer Case and contaminate the oil. The transfer case needs removal and dissasembly to replace a simple pair of o rings. A job I am not willing to let Iveco Undertake. As a stopgap rather than contaminate my TC oil I have been running a mix of Syntrax and Moreys in the APU as it leakes into the TC the excess oil blows out the breather into a catch can and is returned to the APU in a closed loop. Something Iveco would never dream of doing but has served me well until 9. Caution, Overheating Brakes Powdercoated Rims. After a 7km 1. 2 steep downhill stretch with the Caravan on Thunderbolts Way Baxters Ridge Trail found the downhill engine braking of the Iveco to be quite lacking for want of a better term and the Brakes to be sub standard. I have no idea how the 5th wheeler guys are going to cope. On this road there is no where to pull over to let the brakes cool and with the green Transfer case Lever forward and in low gear we still had trouble holding back without over revving, so much so that we had to stop at the first opportunity for an hour to let the brakes cool, and our van is only 1. T and has its own electric brakes too A word of caution, if you have local aftermarket Powder Coated Wheels be very careful to retension the wheel nuts after your brakes get hot. The plastic softens and will squeeze out and the nut torque becomes zero ft lb, A few days later I heard a clunk and felt some backlash and found all my wheelnuts on the front right side loose a few turns and could be easily undone the rest of the way by hand, Consider myself very lucky I did not loose a wheel. Because there is no taper on the wheel nuts they need to be tensioned and rechecked weekly if not daily I have fitted some 2. An SGV Australia or Gearing Dynamics exhaust brake would overcome this problem but fitment voids the Iveco Warranty, Ill be booking ours in to get the Exhaust Brake fitted as soon as our Warranty has expired. Luckily 9. 9 of the Australia we plan on touring is Flat, will save any more mountain treks for when we get the exhaust brake Squab Length Adjustment Horizontal seat cushion. ISRI suspension seat, This is something else they forgot to put in the owners manual. As good as some ISRI seats are, one thing I found about driving the Iveco was it seemed I was sitting ON the seat instead of IN the seat. I had the feeling that the seat squab was too short, especially after the long squab Recaro seats in my Land. Rover. There actually is an adjustment to move the seat squab base cushion forward about 3. We have ours all the way forward and makes a huge differeance, the seat is way better, beyond me why its not in the book, meybe some OHS BS about jamming fingers The squab can also be pulled forward and completely removed for maintenance access under the seat. I could not work out what the switch to the right of the Hazard switch is question mark ontop so asked the question on the Iveco Forums. Of course. its the Heated mirror switch, not going to get much use in Australia The other switch with the fan on it had me struggling, Every time I push it an alarm sounds, but its true reason is to stop the main engine fan from running, this is an excellent feature for crossing deep water or fording a river, to eliminate the danger of the fan blades propelling forward into the radiator. The alarm is to remind you to switch the fan back on once the river is crossed. USB flash drive is the door lock unlock switch not in the manual, most useful if you have autoclose set. Craig Maddox from WA Iveco emailed with some great news, A factory accesory light switch is avaliable, there are several blank switch positions where this can be fitted, Part number 5. Wheel Driving Diff Locks. The Diff Locks are controlled by the AFAM Diff Lock computer under the drivers seat, the owners manual does not fully explain the diff lock operation. The center Diff lock must be engaged before the rear diff lock will engage, The front diff lock can not be engaged unless the rear diff lock is engaged. The center diff lock can not be engaged at speed, you must slow to below 4. The center diff lock automatically disengages over 7. The rear diff lock will not engage above 2. The front diff lock will not engage above 1. Note when Center Diff Lock is engaged the ABS automatically disengages Update July 2. The programme of the AFAM Computer Logic Control Unit is factory set and can not be interrogated nor adjusted, however Marcus Tuck had designed a replacment Arduino controlled AFAM which is a vast improvment on the Iveco AFAM with almost instant Diff Lock engagment and enhanced functions.
