    Oil leak it seems!

    Looks like the body of the sensor at the top looks pretty greasy! Is that normal?

    **** me ****. Thanks mate. Seeing I'm a bit lost, do you think I could get a shop to do this?

    I want an LSD ASAP

    Hey ya'll. My povo pack exec ls1 didn't come with an lsd from factory so how's the cheapest, tight arse way I can stick one in? I had a quote or $1350 drive in drive out! I haven't got that type of cash, sadly......

    Oil leak it seems!

    Ok excellent. I'm on to it in the morning. So I can just replace the sensor and that will stop it? Or can I re-seal the old one?

    Oil leak it seems!

    I'm lost with the location of the sensors and all but it's worth an investigation. Cheers

    Oil leak it seems!

    Ok. I had a good look under the old girl and its dripping from the seal between the engine and gear box! Talking to some of the V8 crowd at work and they said its a notorious trait and just use thicker oil! It won't stop unless it replaced, but will slow it down. So what's the thickest I can use...
  19. 1ntercept

    Oil leak it seems!

    Ok, good point. It wasn't leaking before the oil change! I'll roll it up on the stands and have a good look at it. Cheers

    Oil leak it seems!

    Hey all. Long time no see. Just bought a 132k VX Executive 5.7 V8. Still in quite good condition, however, after doing an engine clean, fresh oil, oil filter and air filter, I parked it in the shed over night. A few days later I notice a couple of drips or oil on the floor, about 50c size? Now...

    Power up....

    FWIW, why is easier to just buy an SS then slam an 8 banger into my V6 exec? I can buy a high roller ls1 for 1 1/2 gees. Should I super charge or turbo???? Any advice good or bad apreciated. Cheers

    VE A/C issues

    Hi y'all. My V6 A/C is playing up. The temp setting seems to be ok, but every now and then it gets locked onto feet or a perticular setting and won't let you change off it? When the car is turned off and back on again, it's back to normal? Any ideas?

    Can sump plugs leak?

    Cheers. Replacement it is then.

    Can sump plugs leak?

    Hey all. Got to ask. Do sump plugs have a use by date? I was under the car doing an oil change and noticed an oil drip from the sump plug. On the last change, when it came back from the shop it was done up very hard. I think over tightened! Above that area, you can plainly see some sort of oil...

    As of right now, NT is the only state or territory to be specific, to have had no road deaths! And no speed limits in some areas....Nuff said really

    VZ 190KW Fuel memcal?

    I'm siding with wraith here, there is a serious operator or mechenics problem. I have a V6 190kw VZ and yeah, there no 5 speed Mitsubishi Mirage.... I spend $30 to $40 on 91 ron and with a mixed of highway and city, average about 230 to 260ks. I filled it 100% with 98 premium and pushed 500ks.

    Polishing duco

    Thanks everyone. I'm heading over to Car Care Products in Five Dock to have a chat and get some education on polishing cars. This is all really new to me, so every bit helps. Lucky we have good sponsors!

    Polishing duco

    Hey y'all. Does anyone here polish their own cars? I was looking at a random orbital polisher and thought of going at hoping for a better finish. Good idea or leave it to the pros?

    Bent aerial

    Thanks for that mate. I'm sure Supercheap have just the aerial for about $30! The motors still good at the moment.

    Funny thing is, shes happy to drive when the VEs low on petrol! Calling my pride and joy a **** box, crossed the line...

    Bent aerial

    The other half hooked up my aerial on a tree branch and bent it at the base and called my VZ a **** box! Not happy. Got it back to visually straight, but it's stopping 300mm short. Even though it still goes all the way up and still gets a radio station, it's still ####ed and pissing me off. What...

    Re gas A/C

    Hey y'all. My A/C is not that great anymore. On the really hot days it struggles badly. What's involved in a re gas? How much should I pay?

    VY 3.8 engine replacement advice

    With out sounding smart, weigh up the time, swearing matches and stress for a couple of hundred bucks. Although saying that, if you in it for a challenge, good luck. A reputable engine exchanger will give a warranty and better still, piece of mind how ever.

    grinding front wheel

    My gut says wheel bearing, but don't discount a weather guard inside the wheel well, some form of brake rotor issue. If it was the pads, you'd like to think they where installed correctly and have a wear indicator that screeches when the pads are low!
  37. 1ntercept

    2007 svz ute diff noise

    Yeah good point, the wear might be too severe to be reliable. Funny thing is, if you Granny drive to Sunday church with my VZ, you seldom hear a peep out of if! If you have the spare cash like I don't, a rebuild would be a better option for long term. Good luck mate.

    Brakes aren't that great?

    Hey y'all. My VE2 wagons nice, smooth quiet and just nice to drive around the tribe with, but the brakes are noticeabley woeful! Put it this way, my VZ shits all over it, even though they are just about the end of their life. Any thoughts?

    VZ Rear brake issues

    Not 100%, but this might be the reason. Always RH side? This is because the camber of the road is 90% of the time negative, hence the pad from the drivers side is falling on to the rear brake drum! The calliper housing could be warped! This can be a result of excessive heat like burn outs, hand...
