andrewsutherl Member Date registered: Jan 2015 Location: Los Angeles Vehicle(s): 2003 G55, 1990 964 Posts: 18 | FS: 2003 G55 Kicking around the idea of selling my built G55 . I purchased it w/ 60k miles in early 2015. It now has 103K miles on it. I’ve used it to travel, camp and commute to work. It’s far from perfect, but it has been a very reliable and capable expedition vehicle. It's located in Los Angeles. $45K Upgrades/Mods: • Old Man EMU dampers and springs • Braid Dakar Rally wheels 17” – made in Spain to my specs and powder coated (some minor chipping on 2 wheels) • Toyo Open County R/T 285/70/17 • Desert Services Roof Rack – Imported directly from Germany, modified with LED lights port and starboard, with a fore light bar. All lights controlled via rf wireless remote • Desert Service G Raid Rear Ladder – Rear LED light • Desert Service G Raid front molded floor mats • G-wagonaccessories All Steel rear bumper, tow hitch and tow wiring kit • Modified rear wheel carrier to accommodate new wheel/tire combo • Fender flares are plasti dipped – not sure I like the look, I think it needs a proper black front bumper to round it out…easy to peal the plasti dip off • Driver side rear seat removed for more storage • Running boards removed and muffler tips trimmed to match Service / Repairs: • New Bosch Starter @ 103K • New shifter linkage bushing @ 103K • Scheduled oil changes and filters as prescribed by MB • Cranks sensor @ 60k • Brake Pedal Sensor around 65K • Accelerator Pedal Sensor around 62K • Brakes front and rear around 90K • Complete 100K service around 96K – plugs, all fluids, including trans filter replacement, new idler pulley and tensioner w/ pulley • Passenger seat controller replaced to fix parasitic draw • All locking diff fluids flushed and operating as designed Issues / Blemishes: • Power steering reservoir feed hose weeps a little • Lots of grease on passenger ball, likely requires a new CV boot • Rear tail lights cracked from bulb heat • Headliner is a quitter • Dent on rear door from rouge trailer • Glove box handle missing – the outer handle cover, you can still open it and functions as designed • Mufflers rattle – insides are • Passenger window rolls up slow….but always makes it!
