Mine is a diesel and it shows the oil temp. That is why I noticed it missing.It doesn’t show on
the petrol models only diesel as far as I’m aware
AFAIK, globally all diesels get oil temp shown... It was removed from the display on the gassers a while backMine is a diesel and it shows the oil temp. That is why I noticed it missing.
However, I have Australian firmware (at least the last two AU versions show oil temp). What details are diesel owners seeing in other countries?
Hmm… that’s a bit strange. We were running in 45-50C at ~1.4 bar without these temps @Logsplitter.BFG Tyres don’t like the heat.
I can’t air down too much for soft sand as they really over heat and get much hotter than this. When aired down to below 2bar for sand they’ve been upto 90c and I’ve had to find shade and stop to rest the vehicle to allow the tyres to cool in this extreme environment and heat. Temperature extremes don’t help. Check pressures when cool in the morning and I was 2 bar at the front and 2.5 bar on the rear. View attachment 7846361
When I had the overheating before I was at slow speed in very deep soft sand in Central Kalahari but very loaded with extra 100L of both petrol and water onboard. Driving fast on loose gravel with slightly deflated tyres also shows as overheating. Could be a software or tpms issue I suppose. Even with the higher pressures to allow for the overheating then I still manage to go everywhere without getting stuck so i will just stick to not airing down too much.Hmm… that’s a bit strange.

We did see temps climb up a bit on high speed gravel in similar ambient temps to what you have there, and ended up airing up to a bit less than what you’re running here. In our case this brought the temps down to low 60s.
Does it vary much with your speed?
There is a couple with child who are doing exactly that and can be followed on YouTube. No sponsorship from Ineos as far as I am aware.Ineos should send @Logsplitter to every continent and circumnavigate the globe.
This is the most amazing journey and without doubt, Ineos should be over the moon, and willing to reflect that with some generosity thrown your way. Your reaction to the vehicle is very heartening.
Sure we can put a route and plan together for others to use as a reference for their own travels.At some point, will you publish your overall route across Africa? It seems like you are picking the most amazing destinations.
