Benn a while since i did an update
- Finally fitted my Calais black suede door trims
- Fitted steering wheels controls for my JVC headunit
- Fitted Dash Cam
Here is how the car sits at the moment. Had a air con guy come and re gas the the air con as it has not been working for ages. Did the test told me no leaks and it was all good until the next day when i went to use the air con and it was not cold. Called him and he told me it was the compressor. So got a new compressor fitted by my mechanic he did a leak test and well found a leak. The line from the fire wall into the dryer had been cut just near the dryer. There was green dye all on the bottom of the tray.
So thanks to the mobile air con idiot wasted my money on a compressor for nothing. I will be calling him and letting him know this as he should be coming back and re gassing the air con for nothing due to not finding the leak.
Have ordered the new line from Holden and fitting it next weekend.

Put the car back together only to find i had a tiny leak in the radiator so decided to do the following
New Radiator
New Condenser
New Drier
New Radiator Hoses
Then while i was doing all this figured i might as well install a PWR Transmission Cooler
Will get it back together this weekend also cleaned everything i can in the engine so its looking nice and shiny.

Small Update
1. I didn't plan to do anymore to the car but i got a VZ Calais Piano Black trim cheap so will be fitting that soon. Bought some spare front air con vents as well that will get painted piano black to match rest of the trim.
2. Also got some number plate protectors as i like the look of them gives it a bit of class. These are the ones i got
3. Car just had a full service every fluid changed. Car was given a clean bill of health not one issue with it. Mechanic said one of the cleanest cars he has seen.
