ouch that is a pretty heavy hit

IMO there would have been far too much force required to do that in a single blow by hand.

i reckon someone in a 1 tonner ute with a high tray or flat bed truck back into it at a slight angle.

That sux man. I've had people do hit'n-runs 3 times on my Peugeot 205 GTI. At least all panels on your car can be replaced. Peugeot stopped making the rear red reflector strip about 10 years ago. They can go for $1000 now-a-days for one that says Peugeot 205 GTI.

Definitely a bar of some sort. You can see the bar mark clearly. Looks like some one has swung down at the boot.

Must have been a damn hard hit or the bar had some serious weight behind it for it to push the whole boot lid up. Probably hit it so hard it hurt the blokes hands which is why there's no further damage anywhere else.

yeah i agree! the dent looks like it's been dug into and push rather than hit by a bar

You'll be surprised how the hit of a bar can push metal around. Especially if its a nice solid metal bar.

Due to the angle of the impact point (that is clearly a metal rod of some sort) it looks as if some one has swung a bar at a slight off centre angle from above their head.

The angle of the impact point is what makes it hard for myself to believe some one has backed in to it.

Definitely a strange one.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.

      This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
