I swear the StagenWagen has it's own gravitational field for stupid motorists and suicidal wildlife! :banana:

Tonight's adventure started with much hated toward Holden drivers - one decided to wander into my lane and nearly take off my front end and then further down the road cut me off. I made it safely into town for a session at the pub for a mates 21st birthday then we went onto one of the local night clubs for some loud music and more sillyness (I didn't drink), we finished up there and I drove said mate and his girlfriend home.

Within 2mins of my mates house I skittled a possum, The front bar wasn't damaged at all however there was a nice 'snot stain' from whatever bodily fluids the possum wiped on the lip of the front bar. We got out and inspected the mess then proceeded on to the drop off point. I stopped in at a servo on the way home to wash the mess off the bar and grab an ice coffee. I jump back in and continue home, Within yet another 2mins of arrive home I skittled a Rabbit - same thing: no damage to the bar however this time there was a nice red stain left all up the air dam. Got home and hosed that one off.

:) Just one of those days.

you might find your car has a star trek style "cloaking device" like our Z does. It causes the car to become invisible to other motorists so they just change lanes into it, pull out in front of it, able along in the right lane ahead of it etc etc. All because your car is unfortunately invisible. It even causes people to reverse into you in car parks and open their doors into your car.

We are yet to find the off button in the z, so it hashad more hits than elvis. the highlight was when the uninsured l plater indicate left, pulled left and then turned right once we got beside him, but it has also by hit by a truck along the side, taxi down the other side, front bar knocked off in a car park. I am forgetting at least 2 more decent ones because I know it is up to its 3rd drivers side door skin.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
