    Check engine light but, no codes?

    That was my thoughts as well, never heard of the engine light being on and not showing a code after being scanned unless it could just be a cheap Chinese scanner that isn't reading properly. Its a 6 with 200ks on the engine, haven't seen it in person yet but going to check it out later this...

    Check engine light but, no codes?

    The person selling. Seemed a little odd to me that's why I was wondering if anyone else had the same issue. Only thing I could possibly think is the codes have been cleared and will show up again when it's being driven.

    L67 rebuild advice

    Thanks @Brysha89, just had a look on the mace website then, I'll more then likely order the full gasket kit instead of the VRS, bit more money but that way I got the other gaskets if I ever need them. Ill get the bolts as well, i seen they have reusable rocker bolts, any idea if they're decent...

    L67 rebuild advice

    Cheers guys I did look up swapping it over to l36 and came across the same thing yous were saying not really worth it in that case, I'll stick to making the one running out of the two, fingers crossed I don't run into any other issues but from what I can tell shouldn't be too bad. Edit: draft...

    L67 rebuild advice

    So my uncle is selling me a vx Calais, the original engine had a bad head, so he brought another engine, swapped it over and turns out that has a bad bottom end so we're planning to build one good one out of the two, he suggested just putting a cheap L36 into as the gasket kit would be about the...

    Instrument lights short

    Thanks for the reply, I understand what you mean with them being the wrong way with the screw in ones on the cluster and just flipping them around. I changed the majority of the cluster lights awhile ago and ran into that problem. I had a mate that's a mechanic sort it out for me and It ended up...

    Instrument lights short

    So basically was a bit careless and accidentally crossed over some wires while changing over my climate controls lights to an LED strip and it's shorted my instrument illumination, I've replaced the fuse so I'm guessing it's the actual wire I've shorted because my Leds still work and everything...

    Hit a gutter; Advice?

    I had another look today and reckon you's are right about the wheel bearing. There was a fair amount of fluid on the discs that looked like it came from the bearing. Going to chuck it in the shop in the next few days and see what they think. Clearly no mechanic myself but, do you's reckon I'd be...

    Hit a gutter; Advice?

    So long story short was being a typical degenerate and hit a gutter at around 40-50ks on a slight angle. When I was driving back my steering was extremely loose and my alignment was completely out. Also at around 50-60ks could hear a sort of squealing from the front right wheel. Was thinking it...

    Need help removing cluster from the dash

    Thanks for the info, I was just a little worried if I kept pulling it out I'd break the looms from the clips but I got it sorted, was just wondering also is there supposed to be three or four looms in the back? Not including the one underneath. Only asking just in case the cluster has been...
