Does it have to be a good beer ? :D Thanks Forg

Just found out my insurer wont cover me anymore. Who are people using that would cover mods like this? I heard GIO somewhere, obviously Shannons. Any recommendations will earn you a beer !

Stock, I'm getting around 13 / 100 commuting - around 25-30 traffic lights each way, but lots of 80 and 100 zones mixed in. Ave speed for a 30km trip is about 45-50 km/h

Normally idling they use around 2.1L / hr - is it different with a tune?

Only a couple? Got a keeper then :)

PM sent

Nice mate, mine's booked in for next Tues - can't wait.

Well, it is raining. But the car was very clean, as I washed it few days ago (thus the obligatory rain)

Strangely enough it started working again later today. <shrug>

Anyone else had this? I normally leave it off, too many 'false alarms' - but today I turned it on, no little green car or any signs that it was working.

most on here would not get 50K on any set of tyres ;)

I don't have any experience with the Turanzas - but I doubt you'd regret getting the PS4 - way more comfy (and grippy) than the stock Bridge

Totally agree - I got the PS4 (not the 4s) and it transformed the car, compared to the OEM Bridgestones

I got PS4's a few months ago from Widetread Tyres in Ferntree Gully - https://www.widetread.com.au/ - very happy with the tyres, so much better than the Bridg OEMs Competitive price. But I suspect you have 20" rims ?

I reckon the largest influence on the housing market now are the very low interest rates. If/when they begin to rise I see a large handbrake being pulled

Having just sold my house for a suitably inflated price, I will have this same struggle whilst I find somewhere I can afford. The winners in this game are the real estate agents and associated parties, and the state govt.

I think the SS Auto is 230 - manual 250

Would've been a firm ride o_O

I've had plenty of punctures from screws and the like repaired - in same profile tyres (40) - none in the VF so far. Question for the OP, did you get a tyre joint to look at repairing the puncture ? Used to cost 30-40 bucks

Anyone have a vid of a Manta exhaust ?

^ ??

Cheers thanks

To clarify, do you mean you prefer Manta over the Manta Pro Series (DPE) ?

Geez 130 seems way too high - 110 ish i'd expect - but im no expert Ive got the oil temp now on my phone, using an app and a OBD2 device - i've not seen over 110

Hey, seems PS4 are out of stock for the 275 rears - so I can only get the 4S all round. What are peoples opinions of the Kumho or other alternative brands ?

Yeah, last time I checked, the Redlines were not a budget model, and so cost not high on the agenda - Holden put Brembos in the redlines, because they are good, and their reputation is also good.

RACV wont do anything other than change the battery or have it towed.

Is 3 inch noticeably louder than 2.5, all other things being equal - or just deeper ?

think i'll try re-pairing the phone and see what happens

:D

Thx Forg - good idea, i'll try another phone & see if it still happens. Maybe re-pair mine too...

Hi all. I am being told by whoever calls me, that when I'm on hands-free they can here a clicking sound, like click, click, click click click They always think I'm on a train. I can't hear it obviously - anyone heard of this ? (iphone)

But some are more equal than others :D

Mine did the same thing the other morning - both keys. So far has only happened once.....

ah you from a good vintage too. sounds very much like my upbringing. I think expectations now are vastly different to what we had Tennis ball, cricket bat, and backyard cricket. At least in the summer

Cannot be bothered comparing those 2 web pages - too long for my current attention span :) But from a passenger room point of view, a tiguan is based on the golf, so inside it is not any bigger.

But there it is. SUV's aren't better at anything except being higher. They are not roomier than a sedan, have less luggage space, if carrying passengers and discount the 'wagon' aspect, and are just higher, bigger in body, and harder to park. I currently own a sedan, but did own a CX7 for a few...

i think they open at 3000

I can manually turn off a/c - as long as I am not in recirc mode. In recirc mode a/c is on, and the air is cold.

Unless it has been extensively tracked, then it is pretty hard to flog a car like that on public roads.
