Default What happened to the 3 threads from Facebook

Since we go away for part of the year, I have not made the jump to Broadband still on dial up. So looked but could not appreciate these threads. Looked at the one that changed a Fuel filter. the second was Oil Filter change, the third????

If it is illegal to have these on this site could we have the addresses so I can look at them at son or daughters place.

must be the language from down under
Do you mean these;
How To Change The Engine Oil And Filter (2.2l, 4cyl)
How To Change The Diesel Fuel Filter (2.2l 4cyl)
HOW TO CHANGE THE AIR FILTER (2.2l, 4 cyl)
Seek moved them from the Aus forum to the US data base, since then, I've placed them on other sites as well.

Richard, Surely they should be left on the Aus Forum at least or as well. I do not look at the US Forum as they have bigger engined Sprinters.

Peter the whole concept of the idea was that the clips were for 4 pots and were meant for the Aus section as the US Data base write up's had many of it's own-separate-threads. But Seek is the owner of the site it was his call to move the three threads, I have no option but to respect his ways of reasoning.
Looked at the aus forum it's a ghost..I'll send an email to you as I have your yahoo account mail
check my V card download for direct emails.

Should they not be in the write-up section?

The NCV3 and T1N sections provide "general" information for those specific Sprinters. There are 4 cylinders in Europe and the UK also. Are they so different that they should be in the Australian section?

I have no problem moving them back.

Sikwan,
I for one would appreciate having a copy of the 3 Threads on the Aus site. Prior to finding this Aus site I looked at your US site and found some very good writes ups FOR YOUR VEHICLES.

I recall one of your members in depth write up of a Fuel Filter change and numerous additional comments from other members. Unfortunately the Fuel filter looked nothing like mine. Even with a VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) for your Vehicle/model you cannot always be sure of getting the right part in Aus.

I would like to see a robust Sprinter site like you have in the US for US Sprinters, for OZ, and consider the European MB site (have similar vehicles to OZ) has some way to go to be anywhere near as good as your Sprinter Forum.

Items that are different in Australia to the US and probably Europe, include Vehicle Airconditioning (I had problems with the OZ Installation on our Sprinter), Towbars, Tyres, Oil and Fuel issues as well as option availablility and support for the vehicle and motorhome.

Peter
