My break in....

Well some may or may not know i have a 79 rolla as a daily beast. I was stolen twice before i bought it so it can be opened with near on anything thats hard lol.

Last night someone broke into it, i noticed when i hopped in it for work today and the mirror had been moved, the ash tray was open, things like a rug had been moved in the back. There is even a crappy cd head unit sitting in the back, even that had been moved. But funnily enough nothing was taken (not thats theres much to take).

But...the funniest part of all is that the person/s that broke into it locked it up when they were done.

I wasnt really suprised that it had been broken into, or hadnt been broken into earlier. I actually had a great laugh about. Just thought i would share my little experience with you.

I can beat that

I discovered at 5:30am one morning that someone had stolen the steering wheel off my standard R31 GXE (wtfbbq!?!?). I had to catch the bus to work :blink:

Found out about a week later that the theives had used it to steal a hella modified R31 that lived up the street, that had a steering lock on the wheel that they couldn't get off.

Last night someone broke into it, i noticed when i hoped in it for work today and the mirror had been moved, the ash tray was open, things like a rug had been moved in the back. There is even a crappy cd head unit sitting in the back, even that had been moved. But funnily enough nothing was taken (not thats theres much to take).

next time you go to the pub and pick up some fat chick because you couldn't see with your beer goggles... don't make out with her in your car, take her inside your house. And don't drive home under the influence.

this morning about 330am i got woken up by the alarm going off!!! half asleep i woke kye up pushing him outta bed he thought i meant his alarm clock haha but no it was his pager beeping and buzzing and you could hear the alarm like it was next to my head so loud.

walked out side in my pjamas and kye in his boxers hoping to bust them in the act but no-one was there.

This morning i got a phone call to tell me the paper delivery guy is sorry if he woke any one up when he hit kyes car with the paper grrrrr.....

at least it wasnt some little punks i dont think kye could have controlled himself if he caught them breaking in to either car.

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
