From some of the US posts, I understand though that the Rods can come in handy in the event of a suspension fault whereby the vehicle lowers itself to the ground and you can't access the compressor. ... |

The answer depends on how much modification you're prepared to do, and whether you're talking about a pre-2010 car or 2010/11.
For a pre-2010 with no mods, widest tyre (if you're using it offroad) ... |

You can purchase 18" rims (from me) for the 3.0 ltr and then fit Cooper ATR 265/60R18's - they are my daily drive tyre.
In the 19", the only AT available in Oz is the Pirelli ATR, and the ... |

Thanks Bobby. What's not in the manual is how to get to the back of the bulb. The procedure for removing the inside covers and such.

You may have sediment in the fuel system if you're continuously running it low (or is that just a problem with Australian fuel over here?).
I'd try a replacement battery first and see if it rectif ... |

Much easier to mount and you get spread and pencil beams in one unit.
