Just wanted to say a public thankyou to none other than Chris Rogers :)

I had my Skyline booked in with him today to have some work done after reading everyones recommendations on the forum, and whaddya know - Im travelling down the Gateway and and and... flat tyre. Pulled over, went to get the spare and its a 5 stud instead of a 4 stud. Only had the car 2 weeks, didnt think to check the spare. Der me *insert eye roll*

SO...I ring Chris to say I will be late, whilst mentally figuring out what to do to get back on the road and Chris ( the legend he is, and to my shock ) offers to go to a wrecker and get me a tyre AND brought it to me! I was sitting there thinking "Huh? This guy doesnt even know me!!"

I cannot express how grateful I am for his kindness and generosity. I had only messaged him a few times arranging my work done today, so to do this for a random person, Im just blown away.

Added to that, the perfect job he did of my immobiliser, keyless entry and boot release, to say Im stoked is an understatement. He also did a few other things for me like plug the clock in while the dash was out, the lighter light now works and he also removed a stupid switch that did nothing ( and bugged me LOL ) and replaced it with a cover.

I just cant thankyou enough Chris, what a pleasure to meet you and I hope one day I can return the favour if youre ever stranded down my way !!

Manda :rolleyes:

P.S Thanks to Col-GTSX for your suggestion - I shall be doing just that :blink: I know thats vague but he knows what Im on about LOL

Yes he is a champion, he's the only person who has touched the electrics in my cars for the last, I dunno, 8 or 9 years, and why myself and others will continually recommend his services!

I'm sure he'll appreciate you taking the time to post this up, thankyou's do make a difference :wave:

Can I just add, Chris has been more than helpful to me in the past. He flew out all the way from Brissy to Adelaide to help APS with a complicated alarm install on my car - taking a break from his busy schedule at Adelaide Autosalon. Great bloke all round and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone out there!

Got to agree with this sentiment. Chris has always been willing to help however possible.

really appreaciated and certainly the first person I would refer any business to.

The best business ethics I have ever found. Wish he was in Sydney! But then he would just be corrupted by the Sydney hussle and bussle like all of us.

Cheers and thanks

Andy

    • With the system, once you drive it for a bit, and before you turn the car off, does the car fix its date and time? When you say the date is wrong, what date does the vehicle think it is, and does it always show the same date? My thoughts from a process driven view is; The system may be defaulting to a standard start date/time. The main reason you'd typically see this occuring, is the system is losing its constant/backup power supply.   If its always defaulting to the same date/time at start up, and especially if it fixes itself while driving, I'd say either the non volatile memory has an issue, or the power supply to the volatile memory that stores this information.   The other thing I'd check is if there is anywhere in the system you can adjust the date and time from. If the date/time is still moving forward since it wished you happy new year, then it is 100% possible the system has just had a bit of data corruption occur, and you likely need to find a way to reset the date/time in the vehicle.
    • Scissor Jacks are an accident waiting to happen, the only time they should be used are in an roadside flat, even then a tyre and rim should be placed underneath 
    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
