So, today I brought my 300td to a Webasto service station. It seem not to be broken, as I thought. There was some air in the system, and I just used it incorrectly, it is not an option to enable the interior heater, you just _have to_, otherwise it will overheat, and it shuts down.
I’m ashamed, but it’s definetely not in the documenation, so should I be? Hm.. I’ll look it up, if it is, it would definitely explain why I just found out during the journey, that would be because it was quite warm in Turkey, which it was not in The Netherlands before I left.
I also passed the 86000km this morning.

The daily drives to and from work I still enjoy, it’s about 185km each day, forth and back. It takes more than an hour each day, as I only drive between 100 and 110km/h most of the time, so that’s not too fast. When I see sandy track somewhere on the way, next to the highway, I am remembered of the trip to Turky, and longing for the next one. Probably in the summer, I will visit Africa again, more about that later.
It’s a pleasure to listen to the running diesel engine, I don’t even have a stereo installation (yet), I actually even don’t miss it

Today I had to help moving some stuff for my sister from one house in the north of The Netherlands to halfway south. A perfect job for the Saharagelber of course. First I went to a farmer to fill up my tank, and took some nice pictures of the Saharagelber before the turnip fields, they will show up on the website from time to time.

| Great amount of luggage a TD can carry. |
At least the driver’s seat is free. |
NOTE:
I am working on the Turkey journey journal now, please be patient, entries are added every day or two days. So please come back later for more.
