Re: L400 - needing some suggestions
New question. My rear door has been sounding like gravel is in it for awhile now. I got a new back latch from aliexpress for about 30 bucks and decided it was time to tackle that.

Re: L400 - needing some suggestions

I took the motor out today to investigate and as soon as any torque is required it just slips. Thinking this might be a Saturday kind...

Re: Alternator
Have you tested with a multi meter? My has started reading low, and I have gotten around to replacing it. Overcharging can kill your battery. Most auto parts store will test it for free if you bring it in. Some are able to test in vehicle. I would rule that out first before a a new alternator. Kurtis

Re: Hi from Calgary Alberta!
Hey,
I'm so very very jealous of your red delica. I'm also in Calgary and have always thought about getting it painted red, looks like you've beat me to it.
Looks as good as I would have hoped it too

Fuel Mileage
Might also be worth taking a look for a stuck brake caliper. That'll drastically cur your fuel.
