Aiming to change oils in the gearbox, transfer case and axles hopefully Friday. Might flush the coolant and replace that as well.

Made up a hand throttle and fitted it. I need 1 more component and some black cable ties (ran out of black and had to use white in the cabin)

Yes - 'drumming' - another way to describe what I termed as 'panting'.
I've got the convertible Jimny and that black roof means the car gets unfeasibly hot inside when left parked with the windows fully up, so another little bonus particularly when there is a threat of rain and Im away from the car. :)


The technical term for the noise is Helmholtz resonance - I wrote my masters thesis on that very subject!

B) I like that how have you attached the throttle side ;)
