Hi everyone,

Does anyone know whether the Clifford Avantguard 4 alarm/immobiliser complies to australian standards. I ask this because i imported the car with it already installed and wanted to know if it is ok for Justcars.

Also, has anyone had experience with this alarm? is it any good?

Thanks in advance.

Clifford make reasonable security systems and usually comply to UK standards or Thatcham Approved, I am not too sure if they have been put through the Australian Standards Testing procedure however, even if they have all the features of an Australian Standards alarm system ie black wiring, 3 point immobiliser etc does not mean they would be covered by insurance. Being that they are not sold here in Australia (that I know of) I would say they have not been tested for AU Standards. In the past I have had to remove a few Clifford alarms from imports in order to fit an AU Spec immobiliser.

Sorry can't give you a definate answer, only what I have seen in my experience.

    • 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.

    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts

    • 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
