Man leads police on wild chase

Several officers have been injured and police vehicles damaged when a driver menaced a motorist on a western Sydney motorway then tried to run from the law.

Police said a 19-year-old man was driving a Nissan Skyline on the M4 at Homebush at about 11pm (AEDT) on Saturday when another man, driving a Mitsubishi Lancer began tailgating his car, flashing his high beam lights.

The menacing behaviour continued for up to 30 minutes as the cars drove west along the motorway.

The 19-year-old man called police and was told to leave the motorway and make his way to the nearest police station, at St Marys.

When he stopped in King Street outside St Marys Police Station, the Lancer driver drove to the end of the road and performed a burnout, attracting the police's attention.

Officers directed the driver to stop but when he refused, they pursued him along the Great Western Highway before terminating the chase in Stafford Street, Penrith.

During the pursuit, the driver collided with a trailer towed by a car at the intersection of the Great Western Highway and Parker Street at Penrith.

No one was injured.

A short time later, police patrolling in York Road at nearby Jamisontown saw the Lancer being driven erratically and overtaking cars on the wrong side of the road.

They followed the Lancer into the dead end Regentville Road where they positioned their two unmarked police cars to stop the driver.

But, instead of stopping, the driver drove between the cars, crashing with both, before travelling onto Tench Avenue, prompting a second police chase.

In Jeanette Street, Regentville, the motorist did a U-turn and drove directly at three pursuing police cars causing substantial damage to all of them.

The man then repeatedly reversed and accelerated towards the police cars while officers tried to remove him from his car, using capsicum spray to subdue him.

A 23-year-old Riverwood man has been charged with 16 offences.

They include: drive dangerously, menacing driving, perform burnout and drive vehicle recklessly/furiously, stalk/intimidate to intend fear of physical/mental harm, use weapon to avoid apprehension, refuse to undergo breath test, intimidate police and common assault.

His licence has been suspended and his car confiscated.

A 16-year-old was also arrested but later released without charge.

A number of officers who were in the police cars involved in the incident suffered minor back injuries and bruising but none required medical treatment.

Four police cars were damaged in the incident.

The media did label the skyline.. the article heading was more than enough.

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
