I was just about to post this very same topic! :surprise: Well I just picked up a vz sv6 2 weeks ago and have since noticed the same thud sound coming from the rear when mainly reversing and turning. When i bought the car I had it inspected by State roads which did not even mention the issue...

well cars at the mechanics till thurdays day, he found the leak (steve_sarge is on the money), it was the inlet manifold gasket, so hopefully all is well after it is fixed. would this affect the performance of my car at all? as the car has been running pretty average, not as much acceleration...

just got back from the radiator joint and they reckon it is a head gasket :bang: he pressure checked it and it seem to be fine, when they flushed it last week it apparently had some oil in the radiator. so now i have to blow this car up! :flame: anyone have a rough idea of cost on a...

well hopefully i know wat is wrong 2moro when i take it back to the place that put my radiator in. so should i have lost about 2-3 ltr over the period from 29/06/06 to 8/7/06? cheers! Jezza

just checked my radiator and it was missing about 2-3 litres of coolant, would that cause it to over heat that much? and should i have lost that mush in such a short time? since i have a new radiator since the 26/06/06? i have done a bit of kms, about 1000kms ish. or would there be leakage...

does anybody know how much the tps sensor is? i think i might give that a shot first b4 tuesday. cheers

hey all, my car seems to be over heating! and i just got my radiator replaced last week :flame: i was driving on the ring road and my temp gauge went all the way to the top and my dash warning light went as well ( that is the temp warning light) so i pulled over and had a look but...

$10? or was that $15

he will be using it as a daily driver, and i dont think he will be doing too many burnouts. He got told that 4.11 was to high and to get 3.7.

next mod for car? lsd or what? Hey all, my mate wants to put an lsd in his car but is there anything else that would be better bang for buck first? and what gears should he get? he has a series 1 vn v6 with extractors, exhuast and a cai. so what are the best options for him? he is...

yeah atm i dont have the money to get a respray at all :( new computer is more important :thumbsup: but i think a cut and polsih will get rid of it. its just a matter of me keeping it polished!

hey all, just booked my car in to get a cut and polish to remove my oxidisation of the paint. but i have since been told that it is a fualt in the paint when it was put in and it will just happen again unless i really cut and polish it lots. so should i get it done for about $150 or should i...

hey guys, i have some kind of slime in my radiator! i dont no how it has happened or wat it could be but it is brown (due to rusty bits) and has only happened since i flushed my radiator about 2 months back. any suggestions to wat it is and if it is harmful to drive with? i will eventually...

yeah i think it was my foot, it was so fun! i only tried one didnt get around to using the RF chip? or watever it was. but it diffinatly did give me some gains. i want to get my car running A1 before i put the chip back in. btw i was getting on average 15-18 ltrs per 100kms :/ cheers for the...

well atm my car has been traveling pretty well, oil leak was fixed ( timing cover seal $150) and ecu was replaced. only thing is it feels like a slug cus i took out foamys chip as i was using too much petrol! i just need to give my tb a clean as it is idling kinda average. oh and i just put my...

so how much did it end up costing??

i would be interest in a group buy if the price is right

getting the timing cover seal changed on tuesday, was quoted $180 for the job, is that about right? also wat would cus the engine warning light to keep going off randomly and it not being a faulty sensor? cheers

wats the harm with that much oil?

i did the first time, but the housing broke and when i checked the themostat the o-ring had crumbled in half. i just left it off, it seemed to fit better with out the o-ring and i had the gasket for the themostat housing. since i have been running the stock memcal the car has seemed to be...

you could try "de-solv-it" it gets most sticky things off but im not sure about ur paint.

forgot to mention, put a new ecu and memcal in today as my soldering skills with greenfoams memcal werent the best!

Hey all, i would like to tell you all about my car and the recent problems it has been having. first the Crank angle sensor dies and needs replacing so that gets done, then i get one of greenfoams memcals and have some fun with that :driving: but sure enuff about a month later my CAS is...

so do u or your wife run the car dry?

you could always but them and see if you like them and if not just sell them on ebay again.

hey all, my car is leaking oil from somewhere. i think it is just above the sump, so wat exactly can leak from around there?? my machanic commented that my timing chain seal was making my car a bit nosiy, whould that be it?? hope it aint to much, my car is giving me a headache, problem after...

$60 ish for the part and about the same again for the labour unless you do it yourself. i heard it can be fiddley if you do it yourself.

im not really sure exactly wat crap would be there but you REALLY shouldnt run your tank dry as this will kill your fuel pump very quickly as the parts in it need the fuel to lubrucate it.

just changed the MAP sensor, only cost me $55, so im pretty happy. hope it fixes all my problems :whistling Cheers

doubt he would of touched it. now i cant even start my car, reset my ecu and no error codes but still no start! i have had the code one other time in the past but got told by the racv guy that it was because my fuel pump was playing up and the ecu thinks many things when it doesnt have fuel...

hey all, got my car back yesterday from the mechanics and now im getting error code 33 which is MAP sensor. Question is wat does the MAP sensor do and what are the side effects of a broken MAP sensor?? it has stalled on me once so far, so i am planning to get the part 2moro. also i have...
