You only have to do one parking test also. Did a 10metre reverse and park or something. I was ready to do every parking i learnt. Expected more challenges from the test but it was just a quick 10min run around the block.

If ya make one or two little mistakes to at the beginning don't stress, most assessors will allow for you to be a little bit nervous at the start. Just chill out and don't dwell, there is nothing that you can do to change your mistake, so don't stress over it. Instead just get on with the drive.

Think of it this way, if you fail all you have to do is reschedule and get as much practice in as possible and some paid lessons, and re do it.

Some other tips. What ever car you are going to use for the test that is the car you should be practicing in, so that you become comfortable in it which will make you more relaxed. Also get as much practice in as possibility before the event! If you’re going to be in the car with a person with a full lenience, then tell them that you will drive. Also if it is raining then try to go for a drive, practice in as many weather conditions as possibility, so if it happens on the day you know what to expect.

Good luck buddy, let us know how it goes...

Edit:

There is also an interactive CD that you can get from TAC called Drive Smart, It will help you with the test's. Link below to order

hpt is stupid. The pixels are like 3cm by 3cm. I nearly failed it purely because i got all nervous and clicked for no reason! If you fail the driving test(which is way to easy) you dont deserve your p's. Just relax

haha i dint have to do the perception test. read the book one and passed the computer test. but failed the driving test first time. why cuz i was nervous.

i was calling the demister a de-fogger and vice versa and got impatient at a round about, and the instructor didnt like me cuz i has foreign license.

anyway moral of story, do not get a test on peak times (too much traffic) and if u are at a roundabout or getting on a main road stay there until the road is completely clear even if it takes 20min :-)

    • Are you sure the gasket is blown? What are the issues? Thermocure is the only flush I've seen do anything with rust, very impressed with that, Prestone, rust will be by the pool having a cigarette.  
    • And since the flush you have a blown head gasket? Have you lifted the head off yet?
    • The answer is to get a hold of the wiring diagram, work out what voltage is supposed to be where, when, and then work out why it is not there, then. I can't speak to the HR34 stuff, because I have never paid any attention to the NAs. There is a possibility that the turbo diagram will help, but it could also be different - depending on whether there is an FPCM on the NAs.
    • Hey guys. New here. I am having an issue with my hr34. The fuel pump isn't turning on. I removed it from the tank. Bench test it. Wasn't working. Order new one and installed it today. Still not turning on. Checked the relay. Relay has voltage on the contact side. I jumped it and it tuned the pump on. Which lead me to checked the coil voltage.  Turned on the ignition and had my meter across the coil and there wasn't any dc voltage. Had my meter lead on the positive and I used the frame ground and noticed there was 12 volts. Which lead me to believe the relay isn't getting a negative signal. I traced the wire ( black with pink strip).it goes back to the bottom on the steering and it gets lost into the harness.   I checked at the ecm and I can't seem to find that wire color.   My question if any one knows is. Can I not just run the negative through a ignition relay to turn on the fuel pump relay?. Or anyone ever had this issue and if so how did u go about fixing it.    
    • So many people don't notice it, as batteries decay slowly over time. Two big reasons people end up noticing and needing to replace batteries: 1) The cold weather. The cold not only makes it harder to turn the engine for a few reasons, but it also increases the batteries internal resistance. So this means you need MORE power to turn a colder engine, AND the battery has a lower limit on how much current it can provide. 2) Something gets modified/altered/added in the wiring, typically an aftermarket accessory, like a dash camera, or an alarm etc, and this adds a small amount extra onto the battery, and pushes it over the edge in its failing days. But if you hadn't have read this thread, and just pushed through, chances are you might have made it through this winter, just. But come next winter, it would have been kapoot. But the fact you changed it out now, means you've instantly noticed how much nicer it is for starting, and will be less worry for you that the engine won't start now.
