If they didn't get a roadworthy done when you bought it, the car would not have had a legit safety cert, and therefore it was illegal to sell or advertise for sale.

Just to expand on that, a car can be sold without a safety certicicate but must be sold unregistered as-is. Obviously if they are trying to sort out that issue now, then they are very dodgy and sold it illegaly. Possibly try to get Qld Transport onto them, as they could be up for some big fines.

I spoke to qld transport they dont no how it was registered. then said it was registered and thats that

Dude get in there and start bustin heads. I agree with what has been said already. The absentee has either broken or wrecked it and they are trying to cover the fact.

You have just scared the hell out of me, I dropped my car off to the dealer today to fix some issues that should not have passed roadworthy. Luckily my dealer isn't in springwood, Looks like I will be keeping alot of contact with them to find out whats going on with my car.

I'd report it stolen anyway hey, go down there with the police report or whatever. That should fire them up a bit to get it back. Then work at ways to get the placed closed down or something until your car is recovered.

Not good tho. Deadset next car I buy its going to be new. And Im going to be down the docks when it rocks up.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
