It happened to me last Sunday (day before Australian Day). It cost $150 to get it fixed in the local auto locksmith. It's about 20 mins job too. price are vary too much from place to place.

thanks gslrallysport. better pads at half price...doesn't make sense to me but I like it....

looks like pick up is not an option for me....it's about 3 and a half hours drive from there....

where is the nearest pick up point from wollongong NSW 2500??

do RDA make cross drilled rotor? if so do you stock them? may try them next time....

I would highly recommend to have bendix ultimate brake pad or equivalent to match the dba rotor. huge difference I would say. last time I check cross drilled cost 140(discounted) a corner, slotted cost 115(discounted). RDA looks very attractive but how do they compare??

I have them on mine. so far so good. K-mart can machine them.

It fixed my problem last time (shaking when under acceleration around 80km/h) with plug/leads change. Definitely look it at it first.

didn't happen is the last few days, so figure crossed it wouldn't happen again. will pay attention to the seatbelt, fuel gauge and my shoes in the future. thanks for the advise.

yes, I did make sure it's closed properly before I leave the car but it just seems to randomly opening itself recently (4-5 times in the last 2 weeks). I'll keep an eye on it to see if the problem will go away.

anyone have similar problem or heard of this?

I got a creative Zen Vision M 30G in black colour, they looks good and works well with windows media player. I would recommend Creative if you are thinking non-apple product.

I found the usage of "this" and "next" are very clear until yesterday. So what is Aussie interpretation of it? Sorry to ask this stupid question. Irish Linguistic Confusion | inverso.name 2. Next Friday vs This Friday ...... In the US, when referring to days of the week 'Next' and 'This'...

I am currently running on Pirelli Dragon and it feels good and the grip in wet is just superp. Would never switch to any other brand. Keen to try Pirelli P Zero once the current set wear out.

The only brand that I want to stick with: Pirelli.....P6000 or Dragon is good for 17", I think would be around $250 each corner......

300+ rwkw NA sounds good for me. like the instant power that NA gives. can anybody suggest what sort of 0-100time with this kind of power. or how much torque are we talking about a 300rwkw car?? Considering this is a road car, torque is more important than power. Will I get more torque from...

Can anyone tell me what sort of money I am looking if I want a at least 300rwkw car? supercharged or turbocharged or twin turbo? What's the 0-100 time like?? any opinion?

I 2nd that. It fixed the same problem for my VT V6 auto 2 months ago.

I would never suggest violence in any circumstance. running off is not right, violence is even worst. as I said it is really not just money issues, rather it is people's attitude. You stop and take responsibility not just because you have insurance. do you agree?

fair enough, you can only pay what you can afford. It seems more or less it's a money matter to most people. The point I wanna make here is, people are not facing the problem that they create. Apologies cost nothing but how many of them are brave enough to take this responsibilities.

It seems "hit and run" is happening far too often then I exepcted even in this forum community. I probably don't get answer for this one, but I'll ask anyway. If you or your mate or your family have similar situation, will you or will you encourage them to leave a note to the owner. In other...

Sorry to hear it mate. I can actually feel your pain. Someone just did a hit and run on my car two days ago (need a new driver side mirror). I feel hopeless these day as people are not honest and lies all the time just to avoid the penalty they deserve and letting us suffer.....

Thanks for the info.

I am trying wrecker at the moment.....also probably need painting as well.......

from holden? or wrecker? I been to holden and the sales person want $380 to replace the whole thing.

Hi all, bad luck yesterday. someone do a hit and run (i think if not vandalise). now my driver door mirror off the housing. problem is the middle plastic broken. question is do I need a new mirror which includes the housing or is it possible to replace broken plastic? hope it's not a costly...

do you have VT driver side mirror? price? colour? postage to 2500? thanks.

looking for driver side mirror. price? postage to 2500?

looking for VT driver side mirror. price? colour?

looking for driver side mirror. price? colour?

I got this on my 98 acclaim, I though it is standard. At least this exists in the earlier VT model.

I got a set (chrome with projector headlight) one year ago for $255 off ebay and they are still in box. If you are so determine to get the black one ebay will be the best place, otherwise you could get mine for $220+postage. It will be a good idea to get the HID (looks good with projector...

VX looks much better, if I were you, VX SS, VX Calais if money is not a big deal, otherwise a cheap VT SS with VX looks(a lot of them on the road), low ks and good conditions. good luck and all the best mate.

to some extent, yes.... all the best to you...

Are you getting your car from holden, otherwiase I doubt they will give warranty.

I have ASWN warrenty with my two cars. In my opinion, unless your dealer is helpful when making claim, otherwise don't bother. I got my second car from a reputable dealer, so whenever I got problem, they help to ring up to make claims. It will be extremely troublesome to go through the claiming...

I see. he may already get that done. for a beginner how long would take to change the leads? hard? or it is better and cheaper to get the mechanic to do the job? I already got the gregory on hand, just not brave enough to try cos never see it done and not much picture on the book to follow...

changed the plugs (bosch super-4) 3k ago, so maybe the leads. what brand and model are you getting for the leads? and how long do they usually last? any idea?

I think my car got similar symtoms like yours. The car shake under acceleration and it is very noticable when driving above 80kph. I am not sure if I should change the leads. let me know how you fix the problem. all the best and happy new year to everyone.

Actually VW as well...
