Today i found out that there is a silver vl turbo calais under cover cop car. It has an immaculate paint job, front mount intercooler, slightly lowered and has a NRNR (No r#$t no ride) sticker on the back windscreen. They get it out every weekend and theres normally 4 undercovers in the car. I'm going by what this person said as they leave the car where she works. There is also a VT V6 undercover car there.

If there anything like the undercover VX SS cars (there standard with the rear spoiler taken off so it doesn't cover the lights) they drive around all they do is drive round defecting any one. They talk to you in car parks and try and get you to talk about your car so they can defect it, they also try and get you into a drag by reving the car at the lights. There very f#*@ing cheeky and I know cos they pulled me over. :D

So people going cruising any time soon, take a good look at the car your dragging, cos it might be our best friends. :inlove:

Yeah, as a daily driver I'd have to clean it every day and I dont have the time.

are they "undercover" cops.... orare they just off duty cops

They are undercovers. Their job is to get cars like ours off the road.

i know of a few VY SS undercovers but i havent seen any VX's

They originally started with the VX's. Now they swapped them over for the newer model, but the way things are going it wouldn't surprise me if they still have the VX's on the street.

I didn't think they were allowed to rev the car to get you to drag... isn't that entrapment? If you take off like a maniac on your own accord that that'd be a different story.

Pisses me off that cops have nothing better to do than defect peoples pride and joy. Loads of money spent and probably some of the safest cars around.

And then they complain about staff shortages.

How about stopping these psycho's walking arould with blood filled syringes attacking people.... :D

great :)

no doubt that will change when they do rev someone up and someone dies in an accident.

That's pretty funny really (ok, I have a weird sense of humour) - I reckon I could convince just about anybody to do illegal things with enough money:p

If every one had my high standards though, loose change would probably be enough:D

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      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!

      Could you put a real seat and harness in instead of what looks like leaving your passenger balancing on a milk crate
