tbf tho, cant see me having another holden anytime soon. clubby hasnt given me any issues, considering its a 12 year old car im very happy, but ive had my big engine phase for a while now.

how do you design a car that goes through wheel bearings every 20-40K

And you need to angle grind the bearings off the hub.

Bring back tapered roller bearings, pack em with your palm full of grease and they go for years.

I'm with you after this one never again.

that bad really?! wow.

my sister focus had a clutch that used to slip real bad... ford wouldnt replace it even tho it was 12000km old, they took it out said there was no signs of wear or anything and put it back in.

guess what.

never slipped again until she sold it 10000km later.

shame about the rest of the car tho, indicator stalks failing, stereo dying, air con f**king up etc etc.

It seems that 3/4 of cars that I see on the road with tail lights out are VE's...

Every single day I go... "ANOTHER ONE!"

It's as bad as seeing a car blow smoke when moving away from the lights, and then going... Yep, it's a Magna...

same with my kia. 2 years old. blows a headlight ever 3-6 months. kia have no idea why.

picked my A5 up yesterday, over the moon with it!

had ceramic pro put on it today, lets hope i never have to use that lifetime warranty!

Shoulda bought a ford brah

jokes

Did you apply the ceramic pro yourself?

Is that some sort of good paint protectant?

Pics brah

ill grab some later :P

its a paint protection which is almost like another clear coat, it dries hard, can only be removed by cut and polish pretty much and comes with a lifetime warranty unlike most other paint protections which are 1 - 3 years.

shows how it works pretty much.

I had Levent from prestige specialist detailing do it.

leroy that sss for 1500...... manual yes? are they all manual?

Ive just asked. will PM you details when I get info, its a bit rough round the edges, but will need half the work the mirca needed (lol)

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
