Hey Guys sorry to jump in but I was hoping for a bit of help with mine
My battery,fuel filter and fuel light occasionally come on and stay on for a few seconds after submerging the alternator in river crossings
I never payed to much attention as its normally over in a few seconds.
This weekend I dunked into a mudhole that was a bit deeper then expected and the lights came on and stayed on for few minutes
Shortly afterwards after a fairly wide river crossing they came on and stayed on, so my alternator had stopped charging..
I kept driving till I'd used up all the juice in the battery and the car died..
Came back in morning with freshly charged battery and hooked it up, drove it for about 15k and the lights flicked off so she started charging again..
Has been fine since..
So I'm thinking the bushes are either dirty or worn? would you agree? are they easy to replace?
Cheers for you help..
Damien
