So we are now only just over 2 weeks away until christmas. It is the festive season majority of people have time off this time of year spend time with their loved ones etc...

So what i would like to know is where are you going for your holidays?

If your not going away, have you planned anything to do whilst on holidays? With the kids/girlfriend/wife/parents etc...

Every year my family and i go to a caravan park in Narooma NSW which is on the south east coast about 45 mins north of bega.

We spend 2 weeks up, we leave on Boxing Day and return on either 8th or the 9th.

At the place i work at we get 4 weeks off as our factory closes down so we dont really get to choose when we take holidays but its not that bad as it actually feels like a holiday having a break from work for that long.

So i will be in NSW for 2 of the 4 weeks and for the last 2 ill be back in melbourne partying and looking for a new job as i am so over my job.

Well thats enough from me, So lets here what your all doing.

Simon :D

I've been to the nats every year for the past 6 years i've been in canberra.

If you want cheap tickets, go to one of the side gates on the saturday and the rebels are usually selling weekend tickets for about $70, as opposed to over $100 from the gate. they get free tickets for doing 'crowd control' and sell them to make a bit of extra cash.

Ahh the joys of being a contractor...

Only time I get off are the pubic (!) holidays, and only then because the office isn't open.

So, no road trip this year, although the way the road toll is going this year this is probably a good thing.

I would rather wait until march or so and then take a couple of weeks off when the crowds have died down anyway.

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      By PranK · Posted

      Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.

      I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box

      So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.

      Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo
