well got defected last night for the following:

1) Pod Filter (only got a heat sheild around it, will wack a lid on now)

2) BOV

3) Exhaust modified no report (however it should be under 90dB)

4) Modified bonnet lid no report (CF bonnet)

5) Reverse lights not working ( got the reverse light switch indicator in my garage, need to put it in)

6) windscreen washers not working (had no fliud)

IF any1 can PM me a place to clear the defect without me having to mess aroudn taking the BOV off, or swapping the bonnet around ( i have the stocker in my garage) as i am going to melb for work halfway through next week and wont have time, it would be greatly appreciated...

Has anyone had any experience with a friendly engineer, who could do a report for my car.... preferably 1 where he could cover my bonnet, however i realise the issue with CF bonnets.

Thanx and all help appreciated :)

eeek.

Man, whenever I hear of a defect, i get scared. hasn't happened to me yet, although I did drive past a defect station a few weekends ago, on the pacific highway near the F3 of all places.

I was tucked in behind a bus, as a friendly Taxi driver flashed me a warning.

good luck with clearing it all Susp., let us all know how u go, as I'm sure I'll need the info sometime soon.

Just out of curiosity, where did it happen?

Can't really help, but points 4 & 5 seem a little rough. Technically speaking, I guess each point mentioned could be seen as a defect, but they must have really had it in for you if they went to the effort of checking all those minor little things...

Good luck getting it all sorted.

Well its only fair that club members get the benefits - im sure you understand

Without listing names and numbers, which would defeat the point, there are several places listed with engineers on staff who can, and have helped out SAU'ers before. Price guides included.

I would tell you the names myself, but its just not fair to paying members - sorry

Im not an engineer, so i cant really answer that

The thread includes names and numbers of engineers aswel as price guides, not a list of what they will pass and what they wont

Im sure when some of the members who have been through this see this thread, they will help you with specifics, but like i said.....im not an engineer

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
