S2 E9 Everest Breakdown Towing The Caravan Into Adelaide, South Australia - LBW Adventures

[@AstroVisualSteve]

Pukeko's are Purple Swamphens or Australasian Swamphens over here in Aussie. We have them in our backyard daily here in Coffs. Kinda cool as we had them in our backyard a lot as a kid in Tauranga.

[@LBWAdventures]

That would be awesome having them running around the back yard!!!!!! It’s interesting isn’t it when you move over from NZ to Aust how much is the same but called something else 😝. Thanks for taking the time to send us a message and of course for watching the video 🙌🙌🙌

[@AstroVisualSteve]

@@LBWAdventures You're very welcome. My wife and I found your channel a few days back and have binge watched to catch up 😁 You two are very entertaining just being you, but most importantly... you don't make your vids all about you. As viewers we want to see and learn about the destinations and journey, both well known and little known, and you do that well. Keep up the great work! For the life of me, I can't figure out your accent Tania. I know it's 90% kiwi girl but when there's an 'r' in the word, an American sound comes out. What's that from?

[@LBWAdventures]

@@AstroVisualSteve oh awesome, we are happy to hear you are enjoying our videos and have found our channel. We do try to just film what ever is happening and what we are seeing, keeping our ‘bobble heads’ out of the frame as much as we can 😝😝. Haha no, no American here, we’ll not that I know of anyway. My slight twist of the kiwi accent is from the deep South, down near Invercargill, where the Scots clearly had an influence and everyone likes to add an extra four rrrr’s to ever word 😱🤣🤣🤣.

[@AstroVisualSteve]

Oh wow, I never realised that there was a 'second' kiwi accent originating from down there. Live and learn. We like both of your bobbleheads 😂 and entertaining thoughts and humour so as I said before... just keep doing you and we'll keep watching, stay subscribed and keep liking 👍 your vids.

[@AndyM...]

Yes , there's nothing worse than having some doubts about a vehicle when it does that, hopefully it either does it consistently or not at all. Love your episodes and Pukeko=Purple Swamphen 🦆🤠😎

[@LBWAdventures]

💯Andy, we’re hoping for the never again option 😁😁🙌. Ohhh purple swamp hen, haven’t heard that one before 🤣. Thanks for the comment and for watching!

[@chrisadams7502]

I have been watching you guys from the beginning..Wonderful VLOGS. Yes, I own a RAM DT 2021 1500, they are a wonderful towing vehicle. Keep going Chris, persistence will pay off....it worked for me, and you won't be disappointed. Keep the VLOGS going, I am thoroughly enjoying your journey. Cheers.

[@LBWAdventures]

That’s awesome!!! Thanks for following along with us. 🙌🙌🙌 Oh very nice!!! We love the American trucks and can only imagine how much easier towing would be with one! 😁

[@bradworthington8594]

I had to laugh…..with your accent I thought I heard you call them swamp hens poo geckos 🤣🤣👍

[@LBWAdventures]

Hahah we can’t hear our accents anymore, but that would have been an interesting name for them 😝🤣.. thanks for watching and happy to hear we gave you a laugh 🙌

[@sharonlee782]

OMG, same thing happened to me in Margaret River. Got up in the morning started my house up, no gears. Rang RAC, tried the gears a few times while waiting and about 20 mins before they arrived the gears started working. Got it checked out when I came back up to Perth as I've been worried about going to far and apparently everything is good. Hope you don't have any more issues and if so hope it's an easy fix. Safe travels 😊

[@LBWAdventures]

There is nothing more frustrating than having something go wrong only to have it run perfectly for the mechanic!!! We hope you haven’t had any more problems with your vehicle either after your experience. Thank you for your message and for watching!!!! 🙌

[@TDub76]

Could be a crank angle sensor, it can cause stalling like you described and doesn’t throw a code.

[@LBWAdventures]

Hey Tony, thanks for that consideration. We will make sure to check that out if it happens again, although we hope it won’t 😱😝.

[@darylephillips6778]

Dads I30 did the same thing as your Everest. It started of Stalling then it run rough and it ended up after 6 runs to the workshop a Alge growing in the fuel tank it cost big money new injectors fuel tank removed and cleaned ect Maybe try some fuel Doctor to head of the problem.

[@LBWAdventures]

Hey Daryle, sorry to hear about your dads car troubles, but thank you for the information. We’re hopping as we are always on the move that our tank wouldn’t have time between fills for the alge to grow… but u never know… we will keep that in mind should it happen again and pop some fuel doctor in just incase next time we’re at the shops. So far it seems the fuel injector cleaner has done the trick though. Thanks for taking the time to message us and of course for watching our video 🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@BowlaramaTV]

I fixed one of this fault related to fuel temp sensor for some reason it gives higher temp reading to the ecm but if never threw a fault codes.

[@LBWAdventures]

Morning, oh ok thank you for letting us know. We will have to keep an eye out for that as well if we have any more problems. Thank you for the comment and of course for watching our video 🙌

[@cryptospyda3379]

😂chris' face eating from the chocolate bowl. Looks like a kid whos been told off for doing that a few times.

[@LBWAdventures]

Hahah so true 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@davidreader3198]

Hi guys. Thanks for another entertaining video. Sorry that you had some car trouble. When traveling it can be a bit of a worry when that happens Might be a time to do what we did and change from a Ford to a reliable Toyota. Best wishes from Rotorua

[@LBWAdventures]

Glad you’re enjoying the videos🙌🙌. Yes we have been given the Toyota tip plenty of times hahah, but to be honest if we were going to spend money on a new truck we would find ourselves outside an American pickup dealer 🙌🙌❤️. Cheers as always for watching and commenting!

[@peterstaggs1956]

Hi. As an Adelaidian I say the Mall’s Balls and the birds at Lake Cullulleraine “turbo chickens “. They run fast ,hate seagulls and don’t take flight much. Cheers

[@LBWAdventures]

Hahaha love the turbo chickens…. We might need to start using that ones 🙌🙌🙌. Thanks for watching and sending us a comment 👍

[@vf1000f2]

Hi Sounds like you would like a Ram. We have a Ram DT1500 Limited and are getting 24l/100klms average compared to 16.6 when we towed the 3t 5.9mtr van with our Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel. But towing with the Ram feels so much safer. Their are now a lot of the old model DS's for sale so you could pick up a near new one for a good price.

[@LBWAdventures]

Hahah we see so many of them around and they always look the part 🙌🙌🙌. Sounds like you are enjoying yours. We are hoping the Everest doesn’t give up the ghost this year. We would like her to complete the lap with us at Christmas so fingers crossed 🤞

[@shaunpearce9462]

I call those birds ‘Bush Chooks’. Hopefully the Everest behaves for you guys from now on. Stay safe.

[@LBWAdventures]

Hey Shaun, I've heard that before, however I thought it was a beer 🤣 We are hope the Everest stops misbehaving as well. Thanks for following our journey. 👍

[@conellisgreatadventure8864]

I’ll be looking at fuel, water in filter, filter full of crap? Not wrong about the old beasts, I wouldn’t give up my 2005 GU Patrol TD42. Minimal electrics, I’ve had rangers at work, no thanks. Hope you get it sorted

[@LBWAdventures]

Yes we definitely considered all those things as well.💯 sometimes all the fancy gadgets aren’t worth the hassle when they break!!! Thanks we hope we have sorted the issue also!!! 👍

[@tgward313]

driest state in the driest inhabited continent - you'd look a bit dark too🙂

[@LBWAdventures]

Haha fair point!!! Thanks for the message and for watching along with us 🙌🙌🙌

[@aaronhunter7062]

If ita got a glow plug fault get it replaced.. they can go and destroy the engine

[@LBWAdventures]

Hey Aaron, thanks for the tip. I'm hoping to get an intake clean done on it, so maybe it would be a good time to have the glow plugs replaced at the same time. Thanks heaps for watching 👍

[@terrysmith1307]

Great ep guys you would need a bloody big sack to fit those balls in where in NZ you from

[@LBWAdventures]

Hey Terry, haha you would need one hell of a sack thats for sure. Chris is from the North Island up near Whangarei, and Tania is from the South Island down near Invercargille. Thanks so much for watching 🤙

[@terrysmith1307]

Im originally from Mt Maunganui been in Oz for 45 yrs currently been in Townsville for 6 months on a around Oz trip

[@coadyg]

Good old lc100 b more car problems 😂😂😊

[@LBWAdventures]

Hahah true that!!!!!! Thanks for watching and for posting us a comment 👍

[@IrlamOz]

No mething around on their trips ay

[@LBWAdventures]

Evening, thank you for your comment. Yes we were in hurry to get up to NSW so we took quickest way which meant we missed Victoria. It was getting too cold for us down there anyway, and I'm sure we will be back in the future to explore what we missed. Thanks for watching 🙌🙌

[@IrlamOz]

@Lentil Bit Wiser yeah it's a bloody cold place I can give you a tip on a few much nicer parks to land on unfortunately the housing crisis is taking its toll and many are booked out for months on end as I'm sure you found out, that being said I love the channel and co.e again soon, I can recommend the Burra gorge for a few nights if you come back this way

[@colinl9018]

Nice caravan park, noisy, right beside a hwy,......And bloody expensive at $47 p/n, give me the bush anyday. A lot of parks just take the piss with their charges.

[@LBWAdventures]

Yes we don’t usually stay in parks that expensive, but we were meeting friends in Adelaide so we splurged for a couple of nights. But we agree some of the pricing is a little out of control.

[@thosebikepackers]

Yeah, nah swamphens are not nearly as cool as Pukekos. Hope that's the last of the car troubles.

[@LBWAdventures]

Haha we agree!!!!! 😁 yes we hope that’s the end of our car issues too!!! Thank you for watching and for sending us a message 🙌

[@deanissit]

That hidden problem lets hope it goes away.

[@LBWAdventures]

Hey Dean, we’ve been waiting to hear from you… you might want to watch our previous video 👀😱😁….. but in regards to the car yes, very frustrating to have the car shutter cough and stall multiple times with no fault codes come up. Thanks for watching 👍

[@stephanburgess654]

Im sorry guys but going on what is on you tube a lot lately is your Ford is one of many that will become a lemon.

[@LBWAdventures]

Hey Stephan, Fingers crossed ours will make it through to the end of this year at least 🤞. Given that it's a 2015 model and we didn't buy it with the intention of dragging a caravan around the country, we can't complain too much on it's performance so far. Thank you for watching and taking the time to send us a message.
