I will admit to looking over my shoulder when leaving my car parked at work today... That's all I'd need

...with a sign on the inside of your window that says, "This car is protected by my pet snake 3 days a week - guess which day!"

its a horrible feeling knowing my pride and joy that i put so much effort and worked so hard for is now gone and by the sounds of it i wont get it back from what ive been told its probably been put in a container and will be shipped somewhere overseas. i wouldnt have a clue what car to get next :(

that's silly. Of course you do.

The exact same kind! Although perhaps not mp3...somethi boring and unremarkable. Like white for example :) works for me!

id love to get one again but im so scared now. but i cant think of anything else with that kind of power and handling capabilites around the same price or a bit more.

that is just unbelievable... absolute scum.

they will have definitely scouted your car. have you sold any second hand parts from your current or old car lately? told anyone new where you work?

try to post any details possible about the tow truck, there is a good chance that will appear again somewhere.

i cant recall, but i havnt sold any parts only buying parts. the thing is it could have been anyone working at the shopping centre its a big place for all i know one of the trolley collector guys could be in on it.

there isnt really any great details on the tow truck other than it was a white flatbed tow truck with nothing on it but it did look old and wasnt really in great condition and it had no number plates, the police have footage of it.

This might seem a tad paranoid and all but has anyone else noticed the disturbing trend of SAU forum members having their cars stolen????

We advertise on the forum what we drive, what it's spec's are, what we've got under the bonnet, in the boot and underneather; Lot's of us even advertise where we live down to the suburb, and where we work (without even noticing) perhaps we need to stop sharing so many details publically. I don't think anyone on here would do it but it doesn't stop someone signing up and just watching our posts and virtual garages.

scotty i really hope its found and all is well :(

this might seem drastic but chain the wheels to something like a pylon. like, big f**k off big chains

sounds silly but someone trying to cut through those would definitely look sus and attract attention from people

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo
