    Unlocking door with a broken mechanism + child lock

    We had a play with it yesterday, with a combination of pressing the unlock button on the remote and yanking the lock up we managed to get the door unlocked and open. Replacing the lock will now be a piece of cake, thanks goodness, i didn't really want to find another door trim.

    Unlocking door with a broken mechanism + child lock

    Hi guys, My VY has suffered its third door lock failure. It's the usual one where the lock works when you use a key but it doesn't work with the remote. Rear passenger side which seems to be the popular one because i've had it fail twice on me already. Anyway, usually it's not a big...

    NFS - Pro Street

    Its called opinions. If you hate a game/thing you usually feel the need to tell people about it hence this thread was born. I played the PS3 version at the games expo on the weekend and it was just as bad as the demo. Epic failure in my opinion.

    hoons cars being wrecked online

    Im pretty sure the government can confiscate any items they want and leave you with the fine/repayments (think of it like losing a phone and still having to pay out the contract) I for one will be happy to see this come in, would love to see some cars getting crushed on youtube :D

    NFS - Pro Street

    Are you using IE or firefox? I found the file will drop out while downloading and FF will need you to start again (as such you'll never finish the download), however IE will remember what you have downloaded and start from there, meaning you can just keep retrying and eventually get it all...

    NFS - Pro Street

    The game feels ****, worst one of the series so far (and i've liked them all so far) Runs well with all the eye candy up though :) E6600 @ 3ghz 4GB RAM 8800GTX

    Australias most disgusting Christmas Maloo

    You guys are off the mark with the point of it. The owner has tried something different and tried to make his mark and get some advertising out there. Regardless of how you view his ute, it's unique and a tax write off. Dare i say it the guy has some good ideas in terms of what lighting can do...

    Alex's Cannonball Run

    I went for a drive last night out towards the sticks, averaged upwards of the legal speed limit (but under 150km/h) for an hour. I tell ya it is hard work and fairly stressful running like that when you don't know where the police are. Mind you, at around 9pm there aren't many police on the road...

    Alex's Cannonball Run

    For those who know about Alex Roy and his crazy antics you wont be surprised to hear that he's attempted to beat the cannonball run record across america. The record stands at 32:07. Does he beat it? Well you'll need to read on to find out. The Pedal-to-the-Metal, Totally Illegal...

    shoulda!! coulda!! woulda!!

    ah hindsight, gotta hate it. gf's family had numerous properties in carlton and williamstown they sold years ago, only to find out they would've fetched upwards of $1million (each) now. Damnit, i could've had a sugar mamma

    Do you Procrastinate?

    Im a bit like Cobez, although im not so anal about having my clothes layed out (but i do have a rough idea on what clothes ill wear) I learnt that cramming is bad a long time ago and for the last 2 years i've always finished assignments as soon as possible and handed them in early. I like...

    Man beaten after admiring car

    Probably because the car is made of stolen parts and they are worried you'll pin them for a crime lol. I think it's related to the fact that society is very aggressive these days and they're protecting their car. I know i wouldn't want people eying off my pride and joy (the area i live in is...

    Petrol like smell in cabin

    mine does this same thing, their solution was to keep tightening the cap, bloody ****wits. It works, but i shouldn't have to make the ratchet sound for 30seconds, it's stupid, in theory it shouldn't be doing up any tighter.

    is the glass half full or half empty?

    no, he took the engineers point of view :P The thing is if you are drinking the liquid you can still say it's half full OR half empty so your logic isnt concrete. It's just how you decide to take it

    Enough of the 'what do you hate' posts

    I think the point is that this forum is for peopel who love their cars. Not everyone has the money to run a car sub 12 seconds. Id say the maturity of the rest of the forum should just let member X say what they want but take it with a grain of salt because they know better. I love my car...

    Check Out This Tunnel!!!

    you press the little triangle button that looks like play on most cd players :P (actually mine auto-played) Back to the video though... Most of the accidents were speed related, see that one of the guy flying up the left and a car pulled infront of him, slid sideways with noone to blame but...

    Vic speed cameras signed now?

    I have a sign up in my area but no camera, i always look for it lol, sign has been there a good 5 years but there has never been a camera as far as im aware. I've seen that 'radar speed test' thing up before though, they then flash yoru speed on an LED sign for you. i think it's a mix of...

    VE Clubsport vs VE GTS

    Im sure people here have read the Motor article on the guy who got a E-series senator and made it look like the GTS. Bolted on a supercharger and changed the 307 to 370kw? I'd be happy with that :D (also loved the colour, Verde Ithica)

    National ID Card

    Breaking News: Holden to be sold in US as Pontiac

    the interior wont stay apparently, it's a once off thing. THe interior will be SS trim if i remember correctly. Same goes for the rims, they wont keep the GTS rims, will go to SS rims and brakes. I like the bonnet, not a fan of the nose/grille though, looks a little strange to me.

    Me Mate is falling for A Nissan Skyline R32 4wd

    stealthy i think you're barking up the wrong tree, he didnt say he'd beat a skyline, just that a v8 sounds better than the turbos you see floating around. I personally love the sound of a supercharged v8, it's a rare sound (only been able to hear one two or three times) but ive already decided...

    Nuclear Power in Australia

    Im all for it, purely because it seems like the bloody obvious way to go. It's cleaner and more efficient than current options, has more of a future and will also allow us to make money if we chose to sell it overseas. I think with the systems these days security wont be a problem, meltdowns...

    VY Trip Computer Codes

    You later guys are in the wrong menu.... The customisation menu is the one it prompts you to enter when you start the car, you do that by pressing 'mode' when it says so on the dash. That gives you options for speed dependant volume/2stage unlock/horn or lights lock indication/dist to go/etc...

    VY Trip Computer Codes

    Mode + Set while turning the key. <-Service menu Will only enable the options for that time the car is started, to get the proper digital speedo you need to hook it up to the tech2 computer at your local holden dealer. EDIT: Bah, beaten! (ps - the other thread was mine ;))

    How do you relieve work stress?

    Im one of those guys lol, nothing worries me externally, i keep a level head in pretty much all situations. I have a problem with hidden stress though, im the typical 'inner stressing perfectionist', apparently there is a whole group of people like me lol. Just sucks when you're tied in knots...

    I have the same version of vista, (release candidate 1), it wouldn't detect my modem so i have no net access, was off my system within 1 hour of being installed. However, i realise this was an early version and am willing to fork out my $220 (ish) on an OEM version of Vista Business. I just...

    How do you relieve work stress?

    Well if it's anything liek the movies i've seen on the internet you take off your clothes and have a mass orgy to release your 'stress' over them. Personally i havent really worked it out yet, i get stomach pains from stressing myself out (strangely enough i dont think im stressed), i cant...
