New From Birmingham by tages on Sun Nov 15, 2009 12:49 am
Hi all new frontera owner from birmingham here, Bought a Frontera 2.2 dti about a month ago after wanting a good 4x4 for a long time. Love it and so does the wife she's even intrested in doing some off roading :dance:
I'm a bit off a mechinic newbie being more off a computer geek but hoping to learn.
Any way great site with lots off information that I'm sure will be usefull in the comming months.

Hello and welcome to FOG.

Don't worry too much about the mechanics side of things, there will always be someone around and about to help..It's all nuts and bolts really with a smattering of oil and grease chucked in.
The greatest lesson in life is to know that even us idiots are right sometimes
