Is this the only thing the radio does? If so, it looks like you have a software problem which may require a hard reset

Of course, same chassis. but always renew your expendables when changing suspension...

I've changed 4 axle sets of VE brakes. There have been not a single "IN" or "OUT" on any of the brands I've installed...

That could be normal a normal CPS failure set of symptoms. Have you got a P008 anywhere in that history? Changed your timing chains yet?

No, but if there was some sort of mechanical damage to the loom common to both could be a culprit.

Dude - there is no alcohol in Dettol. oh, I just realized you mean the hand wash nevermind.... You are using the wrong solvent anyway - you need to use something higher up on the petroleum distillation fraction....

If it were a timing chain, the cacophony of valves being smashed into pistons would be hard to miss but hey, maybe

That car needs a kero flush. Forget those super "cheap" gimmicks. Your "mechanic" needs an engine flush...

Rotors are unlikely to be "warped" on a car driven by a sane person. They may have excess runout causing a steering vibration issue. Very easy to check if you have a dial meter.

How did you check the fuse? Did you look at it or test it with a meter? If the fuse has DC continuity and you have 12V at the fuse, then you need to trace the 12V feed along the wire from the fuse to where it stops. Any questions, get back to us.

Yes you need a multimeter, preferably one with MAX/MIN reading. ENG mode voltmeter is sketchy. Start by measuring the battery (terminals) before you turn anything on, then when you turn on the IGN, then when you crank the engine. Report back with those numbers.

The Aerpro stuff is a bit hit or miss. I have helped a couple of guys put these in, and one could not get the steering wheel controls to work for love nor money (Kenwood headunit). Aerpro's tech support can take weeks to get a reply even when you speak engineer to an engineer it's damn...

Definitely not worth it. The factory globes do the job. LED headlights if the wrong colour (read - half of the stuff you buy on ebay) attract the popo and upset the pink slip boys. The T10 offerings are so hit & miss that the lifespan can be around 6 months (compared to 15 years for a...

If you are having those kind of probs after starting, the battery is a lot more than on its way out, it's a health hazard. Turn everything off, use another car to go buy yourself another battery pronto...

There's no P03266

In the system setup - select the steering controls, does the menu come up with a "learning menu" or some other option? If it's learning, you might have to set it up as shown in the self - learn patch mode. It should depend on what wiring you connected when you set up the radio. Did you wire...

Just reread your post - you want to remove the radio. You need two little "keys" made out of sheet metal about 6mm wide that slide into the middle of the side of the radio which latch the stainless spring back so you can pull the radio out. If I was a courteous installer I would leave them in...

You need to rewire the power source to the ignition. It was obviously set up with an equalizer or subwoofer or something else and is looking for another switch.

Most likely ballast, wiring or a connector burnout issue check all those first

Yes this, I just did mine. Despite having a trade background these youtube vids make the process very easy. Especially the thermistor mounting technique, which is quite frankly a PITA... Just make sure if you plan a subwoofer/reverse cam in future you wire those up while you do the headunit and...

Yeah, there's no way you'll get a straight edge with a mallet! Im guessing he did that to make the wheels legal? You'll be annoying yourself a lot more with the mallet result trust me...

So you got the only bit, well done!

I only know what I know about Sony TVs from being an ex serviceman in the 90s and 00s, sorry if that offends you LMFAO...

Depends how long you plan to own the car - iridium last 2x as long

Need more info/a mechanic

I knew thats what those bolts were for! Thanks m8

Yeah it's the calais spec up deck. I would say it's worth $250 Actually its a pretty small market, so hey - they would decide could be worth $100 - $250 more like

Are you talking about RFI from ignition? I've never heard "alternator whine" and if it did, a choke should be an easy fix on that. Try a choke on one supply and see if it makes a difference

Yes this stuff - Sony audio was OK in the 90s. Once they started the exploding marketing they lost the plot... Not even their TVs are worth a schite any more, and that is a sad, sad thing coming from the pedigree of what they used to produce. I think they are now whoring the brand generally for...

So what happens when you pull that plug out of the back of the unit? Does the red/black pink/black blue/grey etc wires come out with that header?

It looks like you have something connected to the ignition circuit that the canbus is detecting as a fault. Try disconnecting everything you put in there and check whatever it is you are connecting is not a spurious load

So what my reply means is that P0008 can be caused by several issues, your mechanic has guessed at a few - is that clearer?

Yeah that bloody 90s stacker would be the culprit... Go aeropro all the way and get all those tunes on mp3 :cool:

Does it beep when you put it into reverse?

As he said check that forum but short answer - no, doesn't mean timing chain 100% that's why he started playing with plugs and things... lmao

Just take the average

Are your VEII headlights already clouding?

That's a normal computer reaction to a dead battery, don't think it's related to your alternator cable

Bulbs are wired in parallel. LEDs will either work, or not - they won't generally blow fuses, and you generally shouldn't be blowing them up sticking them in your instrument cluster. You probably shorted something out with the prongs of the LED when you installed the new light
