How are you guys going we are missing your posts when will you start again Roger & Marilyn❤
Hey we are doing as best we can, we'll be sharing with you all again soon. Thank you for reaching out, we appreciate you.
Hi, we picked up dirty fuel on one of our trucks that we had, once we had had the repairs done, the truck ran with no further problems, (as I recall they pulled 50lts of water out of it), I do feel your pain, but it should be fine, all the best Les & Denise
i used to fit a water separating filter at first out of the tank and when it filled with water it would shutoff the fuel line and stop any water getting through
Next part going in! hahaha
Those cruiseliners are certainly massive these days and such an eye opener 😮 How did you go navigating your way around Sydney's motorway systems? Haha I don't watch them myself but did the girls get to meet the Bondi Rescue guys at Bondi Beach? They're quite photogenic and will always pose for anyone seeking photos.
What a shame what’s happened. However. Newcastle is beautiful, such a shame you got stuck here!!!
Hahaha yes definitely a great spot to get stuck!
Hi guys the let’s hope all Goes well from now on. The house you where staying at is friend of ours 😂😂
Thank you! No way hahaha we mutual friends? That's great!
Great to see you back on the road again.
Thank you!
200 series with a GVM upgrade - that’s the surprise!
Not wrong!
So pleased to see you are on your way again..have missed the updates..such a bummer for you and so sorry you had this happen..Hope it’s the last of problems ..take care ..thanks for sharing..😊
Thank you, we appreciate that!
Am I correcting saying that the chev is unleaded notable diesel
yes correct unleaded.
Great to see that you are finally back on the road. Safe travels and looking forward to the next video. We are currently in Hervey Bay and the nights are very cold.
Thank you! We're yet to get there. Soon hopefully! Enjoy!
Please name and shame the servo and same with the holiday parks as I don't want to support them if they do not want the work with the travellers as stuff happens no matter even if you are not a full time traveller.
Absolutely agree. It was Alliance Petroleum in Horsley Park.
Gentle piano for opening credits? Are we on the right channel? 😅
Perhaps it reflects the mood of the moment.. you guys could do with catching a break methinks. 😀
hahaha
Cheers mate!
No roof insulation!😮 Lotus are crap vans indeed
Not the greatest!
This was a great video thankyou for sharing about the history of rottenest so sad I cried listening to this sad story of our people. Your Quokka pics were awesome. I am a proud Aboriginal woman.
Thank you. It broke our hearts too! Thanks for sharing!
Chevy (GM) full size trucks was a good brand back in the 80's and 90's. Now, if you go big American, the F series is the only way to go.
We love the F series!
Hi hope you are all well missing you all hope your back soon
Thank you! Very soon hopefully! Cheers!
Have you got the chevy back as yet.
Yes back after a month. Going well so far now!
What's happened are you guys ok?
Hey, yes we're ok, back soonish. Tending to a few family things that need us right now. Cheers for your concern we appreciate it.
the service station you got the fuel from is about to have some major work done by the look of it 🤔
Let hope for the better hey!
Hi, can you let us know if the insurance company pays up in the end and who your insurance is through. So sorry this happened to you & hoping for a good outcome 🤗
Hey yes insurance cover it all. We are with RACV.
We always get receipts, photo via our OneDrive -car folder to have proof as well as anything we get done to car. But in saying that we run 2 filters with a glass bowl to see any water collected in fuel. You guys just having all sorts of car dramas for a while now… Stay safe!
Contact your insurance asap
Yes we did after getting no response. Thank you!
U need a chery lol 😅
hahaha they're really not great haha
Mate u have bad juju 😮
All the best
Chery goes good in the snow
haha yes hopefully that'll end soon!
Nice to see you at the Bay. When you come back fully equipped, try driving Stockton Beach and check out tin city, drive Sakurai, and do the Coast Coastal Walk. Maybe next time.
Thanks for the tips! That sounds great, we will add them to the list! Cheers!
Hope you get back on track shortly and your luck changes for the better
Thank you, lets hope so!
but how many other cars got that contaminated fuel??
To be honest probably not many, I don't think very many cars in outer Sydney would fuel up 98, especially when the cost of living is high. We're thinking that's why we picked up so much crap!
In my diesel i add The Fuel Doctor when i fuel up and its eats water up and contaminates and is also good for when you donot drive on a regular basis.
Thank you, we've picked up some of that now! Cheers!
It's been a tough time for you both. Always ask for a tax receipt ,Try to only use BP they warrant their fuel, I keep right away from small servos it not worth the risk to save a couple of cents a litre, we diesel fuel could be truck diesel with a lower cetane rating . Spares will be an issue with most yank trucks with small dealer networks ... Go LC 200 we love ours Safe travels 🙏
It's not ideal. Yes we will be getting receipts no matter what now! Oh really that's great to know with BP. Yes the parts are a pain, although we thought being in Sydney they'd have more stock for common parts like injectors and fuel lines etc. Yes stick to your 200. Cheers!
Such great drone footage, loved it. Certainly be interesting if other people had the same problem
Thank you! Hoping others haven't but wouldn't be surprised.
wow, still waiting. If its any consolation I had to wait 6 weeks for a turbo seal for my LC300. It would appear all manufactures or dealerships just dont stock enough parts. Obviously the manufactures dont allow them to order on consignment hence not wanting to outlay the cash, Doesnt make our touring any easier when issues occur. Fingers crossed for you all to be on the road soon.
Yes, almost a month. Oh really, joys of new cars haha. No it doesn't make it easy at all, it's a pain in the back side, but I guess you have no other option but to wait hey. Thank you, we hope so too!
Thanks for sharing our beautiful port stephens and of course newcastle area. Great drone shots zenith definitely not a child friendly beach. I'm glad you guys got a vehicle to get around and explore. I hope this is the end of the Chevy problems and smooth sailing
It's a great spot! We had perfect hot weather too! Yes it's pretty but agreed didn't look very child safe! Yes let's hope so! Cheers!
New tow vehicle coming soon for us. First take away I will keep all fuel receipts. Even before your fuel dramas I was planning to fit a fuel prefilter with a water trap. Your experience with parts issues with US Utes is not the first I have heard. But don't be delusional about what a similar fuel contamination issue would have cost in a Toyota 200 series. The diesel injectors are horrendously expensive.
Wooohoo, yes do get receipts, glad you can learn from us and fingers crossed you have no issues. es we've heard of the parts issues, we thought they'd have more stock in Sydney especially for common parts like injectors and fuel lines. They couldn't even find a bloody hose clamp they broke in Australia. We know the cost would have been similar if not more in a 200, the faults that came up didn't indicate fuel issues and we obviously don't know this car, hence the unknown at the start. If we had a 200 we would have known it was fuel straight away and literally pulled over and drained the tank on the side of the freeway and avoided any damage whatsoever. That's the positive in knowing the vehicle.
@@LivingOffTheVan Yes knowing your car is a bonus. I just surprised the Chev didn't have water in fuel warning system. Even my 14 year old Land Rover has that. All the best for your travels.
Can’t blame the car for the fuel issue. That’s on the servo for managing the fuel tanks. We’ve had good Toyota’s and some pretty bad ones. Hilux, 4 runner(surf) and Landcruisers. Our RAM Hemi is running great towing our Lotus Trooper. We are wary of toyota’s and turbo issues, having had engines destroyed by them and multiple turbo failures.
Absolutely agree, we're not blaming the car, it's 100% the servo. We think GMSV though should up their game in common parts availability in Australia. We've never had turbo or engine issues with a land cruiser so we've been lucky by the sounds of it. We just know if we had a land cruiser, we would have know it was a fuel issue straight away and drained the fuel on the side of the freeway and avoided any damage. With the Chevy the faults coming up were random and it being new to us we had no idea it was fuel related.
Why are you blaming the car for fuel servo issues. I know parts are harder to get but you knew this when you purchased the car. Total BS story. Sorry not a fair appraisal. Wait till you have done some serious km. I am on my 3rd American truck and love them. Mind you mine have all be diesel 😢
We're not blaming the car at all, it's 100% the fuel that bought this issue on. Sorry we didn't plan on picking up dirty fuel and having to get all new injectors and fuel components. Although, GMSV should have more common parts available in Australia especially injectors and fuel components. 1500's are so common now, even as tradie's everyday rigs in the cities. GMSV broke a hose clamp that they couldn't even get in Australia. It's frustrating, especially when you outlay so much money, you expect great customer service.
And the amount we are paying is madness !
100%
I feel for you living off the van so annoying hope its sorted
Cheers, thank you!
