I had a pretty similar sounding problem and they'd probably fix it in a major service but mine was solved by getting the idle motor "decarbed" and resetting the throttle position sensor.. If thats of any help to you!
Hmmm the guy I bought mine off (fellow SAU'er) said and stated in the ad it was done. So I'm pretty sure mine is! Can anyone on here read Japanese? Mine's all 100,000kms with a bunch of Japanese characters!
I think i'm right in saying that lol! As my old car (mitsubishi) didn't have that kind of sticker until the belt was replaced, then it was put on. Guessing timing belts come with that sticker when they're bought?
Not sure if the photo's going to work, never uploaded one before! If it does, you can see a whitish sticker on black plastic just behind the pipe at the front. Thats the sticker saying the belt was changed at 100k.
Seeing as the timing belt usually gets changed at the 100k service, if it were done there should be a sticker or something in the engine bay saying it was changed. Should be stuck on the timing belt cover. Although all this could mean is that the timing belt was changed and nothing else
So the pirated games will come on USB's? I remember when they first cracked the 360 they were doing something like this.. The people I used to buy pirated games off in Asia told me the 'pirates' didn't see how they could pirate games as they'd need to be on blu-ray discs and the prices wouldn't be all that much cheaper than originals?
This was years ago though when blu-ray was first appearing, guessing they've gotten a fair bit cheaper now? Or would there be a way around having to use blu-ray?
After reading it, I'm still not entirely sure how this works? The geek-speak doesn't go down too well in my mind I think! How are pirated games then used with the use of this USB type thing?
(Cracking the PS3 is to enable use of pirated games right?)
+1 on keeping the car in 1 piece til proceedings are done with the police etc.
However when you do part it out I'd be interested in the driver's side window motor and glass. Did it have the stock seats in it too?
Yeah that nearly killed me the other night in the rain - didn't even see it because of the reflection on the road nearly launched me off the ground!
Lucky its at an airport i spose...
