Most specifically 31st March - but there is a defect station down Logan Rd, up near woolloongabba. 12:00pm

Up under the bridge as you go up the hill after the roundabout. Really ****ing stupid place for it, but that is cops for you. Seemed to be checking vehicles i assume for anything, licence check, RBT, etc and there was one VL that wasn't going anywhere. About 4 cop cars and total waste of resources yet again!

Anyhow.. also noticed similar down Hungry Jacks, down Springwood last night driving home. So think there is something going on.

Basically I think its a bacon offensive at the moment, so just be a bit careful where you go and things just for the next week or so. Seems end of the month time as this has just been last couple of days, but could be a bit longer term. Will see.

My friendly warning of the day :rofl:

Defect stop in beenleigh on the way to work, cop was just about to point to me, but I looked the other way and pretended not to see him, was way to late for me too pull over anyway, looked in my rear view and saw him look at me, but no pointing or anything and no other cops raced afetr me, not that i was speeding, 50 in a 60 zone, but yeah was bit late for work anyway, didnt want to be held up anymore!! :rofl:

Got some friends that work down at QLD Transport as im down there all the time and he showed me this thing there going to use. (THING IS HOIST LOL) They test you hight, test ur exh and suspeion while looking at ur tyres at the same time. Then they do the rest from the ground. and make sure you all have a compliance plate fitted as there briging in a new law that if it is not fited to the car then you have a risk of getting a $15,000 fine. Just like us when we dont have one fitted.

    • Hi all,   anyone know where I can pick one of these up for a reasonable price? I just resprayed my rear trunk due to fuel stain and my new muse spat install.    added a photo for some content 馃ぃ馃憤   thanks 
    • Consider a 35 too...
    • He's right ~ there is no 'magic' with stuff like this ... it is more likely that in the process of looking for the short, the loom/wire 'incidentally' got moved in the process, thus removing the short ~ now, that maybe a wire (in a loom) rubbing against the edge of some grounded metal, that's worn through the insulation, causing the (now intermittent) short to ground. If one wire in a loom has been damaged in this fashion, it's reasonable to presume that other wires beside it may have also be damaged, and now exposed...you can bet the green crusty copper corrosion will start... ...that'd be a pisser, Murphy's Law steps right in as GTS observes...but worse, something like that is easier to find when shorted...ie; unplug bulb and fuse, and put multimeter in continuity mode so you get constant beep, and carefully poke about hoping to find if some movemet of the harness stop the beeping.... ...it's still all a bit Arnie tho' ..It'll be back... 馃槂
    • Yeah, but knowledge of one wire's insulation worn through to short on earth implies the possibility of other wires doing the same. I had my power steering die, because the wire that runs to the solenoid valve on the rack runs in the same loom as the power wire for the O2 sensor. And when the O2 sensor/wire did something stupid and burnt part of that loom to death, the only indication was the shit(ter) fuel economy and the heavy steering. It took deep excavation of the looms in the bay to find the problem. Not wear through in that case, but similar shit.
    • Ah, I thought he'd wired it to one of the spare ECU inputs! Too long ago since I read that post, ha ha. I've been arguing with radiators, harmonic balancers, alternators and rust since reading it.
