Hi, I live in Australia and have been reading the Overlander May 2003 magazine P104. A Person is reporting

1 Weld in the rear diff crack
2 RH intermediate body mount has collapsed and has caused cracks in the fire wall
3 The Spot welds in the area of the RH head light have sprung, caused the collapsed body mount.
4 Rust around the Alpine windows.

It looks like has a 1998 TDI.

Just wondering if anyone else has reported any of the above problems.?

Thanks

Hi
A lot of the more severe problems can be attributed to the fact, that cars in Oz really get used.
looks like a case of neglect.
Discoverys rust the world over though.
All the best
Pete S.
