    Extra switches illumination

    I haven't done anything with my VY switches so I'm only guessing, although I've done a fair bit of auto wiring in years gone by, but try finding out which wire/s supply lighting power to the power window switches (use a multi meter and see which wire livens up when you turn the lights on) and...

    Whats your thoughts ?? Leak.

    3.8's were notorious for this leak, it's the rear main engine seal. Haven't checked but was told by a mechanic once that to change the seal was a reasonably big job compared to the amount of oil you will actually weep out over the car's life. My VY hasn't started doing it yet but the VR I had...

    How could people do this???

    As far as I'm concerned, these bast**ds should get more than if they were harming another human.They are nothing but bullies who use trusting, defenseless animals as their targets for their own inadequacies :ranting::ranting::ranting: not quite as bad as rapists....don't get me started on...

    Fuel tank door broken...

    Can't help with information on the cost of a new lid as I live over the ditch, but super glue won't cut it either as it doesn't stick most plastics. Araldite would be a better bet if you're forced to go down this route but I'm with you on wanting to fix it properly. If you're already prepared to...

    Just splutters like a rev limiter

    Would have thought that if it was a filter prob (partial blockage e.t.c) then the spluttering would have occurred in any gear, not just fourth? Especially if you've taken to near red line in every other gear with a wide open throttle getting it there, fuel pressure would have been constant...

    Melbourne Motor Show 08 Pictures Warning : 56K

    That front shot of the coupe 60.........damn! still gives me the horn and I've looked at more than a few pickies of it since it's unveiling.:embarrass:love: But being a concept vehicle I doubt if I'll ever get to rub ones sweeping flanks.

    slipping box :(

    The 7 litre capacity includes the torque converter (as far as I can remember from my VR auto) so when you drain the box you don't get the oil that's in the convertor hence the difference. I can't remember if there's a way of draining the convertor as well (I've gone back to a manual with my VY...

    How do you dismantle headlight switch?

    As far as I know,they are a designed not to be dismantled after factory assembly (I'm open to being proved wrong tho:thumbsup:). Seems to be the modern idiom, yer average joe blo can't 'recon' things, you can only replace the whole unit with a new one :cry:

    Need video editing software

    I use Sony Vegas, they have 3 different flavours, the Movie studio is the cheapest (US$ 80.00) and will probably do what you want or top of the range is Pro (which is what I use ) and easy to use, but unless you are doing alot of Video work is probably an unnecessary expense. They do a free...

    Audi R8 V12

    Saw a review on the TV here a short time ago of the petrol version, might have been on fifth gear (don't know if it's on aussie tele?)

    Building a Fish Tank ..Help?

    Silicon sealer (RTV) in the caulking tubes is the stuff,sticks like s**t to a cows tail. Knew a glazer that recommended that too me once (he'd made a few tanks in his time for various people). Bunnings or any builder's/hardware shop is the place. Perspex, as stated, is unsuitable as it hasn't...

    The Kiwi and the Aussie

    A Kiwi and an Aussie were sitting around talking one afternoon over a cold beer. After a while the Aussie says to the Kiwi, "If I was to sneak over to your house and shag your wife while you were off fishing, and she got pregnant and had a baby, would that make us related?" "The Kiwi...

    fluffy stuff coming out of exhaust

    Hmmm, didn't think cats contained any 'stringy' stuff, I thought they were a metallic honeycomb inside. I'd go with Peanuts on this one and say it's fibreglass filling from the silencer.

    You can get those little round magnets on a telescoping rod thingies. Go fishing,if the bulbs got any metal at all the magnet should pull it right back out the hole it fell in. Just for future reference.

    thoughts on the new lancer

    Must admit, that 3/4 angle shot in silver it looks pretty good. The only shots they seem to show here in NZ are of a red one, still 3/4 angle but up abit higher and with that angle and the red colour....it makes it look like crap, but I agree with the comments about the arse end, bloody awful...

    Apparently coat hangers bent in a 'U' shape to the right spacing and notches near the ends does the job nicely. I think Phreddy has instructions for making these are on his ASR web sight. http://www.asr-audio.com.au/files/RemovRefit.pdf

    Flushing the system out

    Here in NZ, that's all they do when you go for that option anyway! Don't know about Oz. As far as the service agents are concerned, why spend a couple of hours pulling the injectors out, putting them on the proper equipment and flushing them when you can throw a bottle of cleaner in the tank...
