So after the wheel bearing collapsed the number of issues related and unrelated have mounted up - I was so desperate to get ridf of but then realized I couldnt pass it on to someone else knowing the issues but also there was something that kept pulling me back so the latest list of "opportunities"
2 of the wheels (rims, alloy's, mags whatever) are buggered and not repairable - damn its hard finding replacements so much so that I had to fund replacing all 4 so put 235/40/18's on matching HSV rims (I think from a Senator) - looks a little odd but not terrible no idea when or if I will find any 19x8j HSV ones :-(
The brake rotors while stamped HSV are a little odd - The rears are slotted or grooved where as the fronts are just plain - dont know if this is normal or not , also it doesnt stop as well as it should (in my mind) - When looking at alternatives theres bugger all choice looks like it will have to be DBA rotors and pads but it will take nearly 4 weeks to get them :-(
Getting weird electrical issues with dash messages like immobiliser failure or apply handbrake when the car is either first started or stopped .....
Do I qualify as a close second to Paul W and his issues ?
