Just because I don't blindly support the massively unsuccessful, financially inept, ultra conservative incumbent LNP government doesn't mean I therefor support the ALP.

LOL your mate Bronny just resigned

Disgraced Liberal ministers tend to do this, rather than waiting for a GG to sack them or sweeping it under the rug with handouts...called maintaining honour and dignity.

She shouldn't have resigned for this.

She should have never had the job in the first place as she is as far from objective as you can get... they might as well have had alex in there. But that's another story...

It's pretty stupid the the incumbent government gets to chose the speaker really...

She did nothing wrong. It is the entitlement scheme itself that should habe been the focus.

Still funny though.

I don't usually vote for some pointless 3rd wheel...

I usually go either ALP or LNP

it is totally a wasted vote going another way no matter how much peoqqple say otherwise

Pretty sure the Prime Minister fully supported her not more than a week or so ago..

Cause that blithering idiot Harry Jenkins was as objective as they come...

I agree with you though; speaker should not be a party affiliated backbencher MP...it makes a mockery of a democratic system when the process for handling law making is trivially biased in such a way.

Of course labor will chose someone that is just as bad... I do feel BB was a bit of an extreme example though.

Problem is where else can you get them from ? :/

Also LOL at the notion she is leaving this with any dignity

More dignity than if she stayed - it is the right and honorable thing to do when the professionalism of a public servant is compromised. Still not enough for Bill Shorten though, who in spite of calling for resignation is now claiming it was overdue.

I would vote for the politician who stopped playing the opposition at every single move of the incumbent. I understand the role of the opposition is to provide a voting alternative, but to be a flamin mongrel on every single topic gets tiresome and incredibly predictable.

Sadly the jokes on all of us, do you think she cares? Nope. She's gonna have a cushy existence from here on out.

Just like krudd, Juliar and all those before them

This.

And she claim a massive pension while doing so.

Like they all do

Shorten is hoping to win power by having zero policy but the standings show that isn't working for them. I'd be wrapped if liberals handed to julie bishop I think she's a very worthy PM

This is my guess. She put a LOT of effort into working the left over Myuran and Sukamaran and then has not been particularly loud obe way or the other.

ALP had this in the bag but shorten f**ked it epicly. It's anyone's game now

Yeah I don't think Abbott will hand it over but IF they lose next election - she will probably get the gig I'd say.

My feeling is the economy will decide the election. good - libs win bad labor walk in.

That was the play when they got elected but they set their goals too high IMHO... they haven't improved the budget 1 bit and they kiiiinda said it would be under control by the end of the term. A Refreshing female leader with left appeal (but not policy lel) vs a proven backstabber/lier/donothinger is a shoe in

This is my guess. She put a LOT of effort into working the left over Myuran and Sukamaran and then has not been particularly loud obe way or the other.

Uhh... Myuran = Sukumaran

Pretty lulzy insight into the care factor of the trendy Left

    • OK, so regardless of whether you did Step 1 - Spill Step 2 - Trans pan removal Step 3 - TCM removal we are on to the clean and refill. First, have a good look at the oil pan. While you might see dirty oil and some carbony build up (I did), what you don't want to see is any metal particles on the magnets, or sparkles in the oil (thankfully not). Give it all a good clean, particularly the magnets, and put the new gasket on if you have one (or, just cross your fingers)
    • One other thing to mention from my car before we reassemble and refill. Per that earlier diagram,   There should be 2x B length (40mm) and 6x C length (54mm). So I had incorrectly removed one extra bolt, which I assume was 40mm, but even so I have 4x B and 5x C.  Either, the factory made an assembly error (very unlikely), or someone had been in there before me. I vote for the latter because the TCM part number doesn't match my build date, I suspect the TCM was changed under warranty. This indeed led to much unbolting, rebolting, checking, measuring and swearing under the car.... In the end I left out 1x B bolt and put in a 54mm M6 bolt I already had to make sure it was all correct
    • A couple of notes about the TCM. Firstly, it is integrated into the valve body. If you need to replace the TCM for any reason you are following the procedure above The seppos say these fail all the time. I haven't seen or heard of one on here or locally, but that doesn't mean it can't happen. Finally, Ecutek are now offering tuning for the 7 speed TCM. It is basically like ECU tuning in that you have to buy a license for the computer, and then known parameters can be reset. This is all very new and at the moment they are focussing on more aggressive gear holding in sports or sports+ mode, 2 gear launches for drag racing etc. It doesn't seem to affect shift speed like you can on some transmissions. Importantly for me, by having controllable shift points you can now raise the shift point as well as the ECU rev limit, together allowing it to rev a little higher when that is useful. In manual mode, my car shifts up automatically regardless of what I do which is good (because I don't have to worry about it) but bad (because I can't choose to rev a little higher when convenient).  TCMs can only be tuned from late 2016 onwards, and mine is apparently not one of those although the car build date was August 2016 (presumably a batch of ADM cars were done together, so this will probably be the situation for most ADM cars). No idea about JDM cars, and I'm looking into importing a later model valve body I can swap in. This is the top of my TCM A couple of numbers but no part number. Amayama can't find my specific car but it does say the following for Asia-RHD (interestingly, all out of stock....): So it looks like programable TCM are probably post September 2018 for "Asia RHD". When I read my part number out from Ecutek it was 31705-75X6D which did not match Amayama for my build date (Aug-2016)
    • OK, Step 3, if you need to remove the valve body, either to replace it, the TCM, or to do a more complete drain.  First, you need to disconnect the TCM input wires, they are about half way up the transmission on the drivers side. One plug and the wires are out of the way, but there is also a spring clip that stops the socket from sliding back into the transmission. On my car the spring clip was easy to get, but the socket was really stuck in the o-ring of the transmission housing and took some.....persuasion. You can see both the plug to remove (first) and the spring clip (second) in this pic Incidentally, right next to the plug, you can see where the casting has allowance for a dispstick/filler which Nissan decided not to provide. there is a cap held on with a 6mm head bolt that you can remove to overfill it (AMS recommend a 1.5l overfill). Final step before the big mess, remove the speed sensor that is clipped to the valve body at the rear of the box.  Then removal of the Valve Body. For this the USDM Q50 workshop manual has a critical diagram: There are a billion bolts visible. Almost all of them do not need to be removed, just the 14 shown on the diagram. Even so, I both removed one extra, and didn't check which length bolt came from which location (more on that later....). Again it is worth undoing the 4 corners first, but leaving them a couple of turns in to hold the unit up....gravity is not your friend here and trans oil will be going everywhere. Once the corners are loose but still in remove all the other 10 bolts, then hold the valve body up with 1 hand while removing the final 4. Then, everything just comes free easily, or like in my case you start swearing because that plug is stuck in the casing. Done, the valve body and TCM are out
    • OK, so if you are either going for the bigger fluid change or are changing the valve body which includes the Transmission Control Module (TCM), first you should have both a new gasket 31397-1XJ0A and a torque wrench that can work down to 8Nm (very low, probably a 1/4 drive one). You can probably get by without either, but I really didn't want to pull it all apart together due to a leak. First, you now need that big oil pan. The transmission pan is 450 long x 350 wide, and it will probably leak on all sides, so get ready for a mess. There are 24x 6mm headed bolts holding the pan on. I undid the 2 rear corners, then screwed those bolts back in a couple of turns to let the pan go low at that end, then removed all the middle bolts on each side. Then, undo the front corner bolts slowly while holding the pan up, and 80% of the fluid will head out the rear. From there, remove the remaining bolts and the pan is off. You can see it is still dripping oil absolutely everywhere...it dripped all night.... I got another couple of litres when I removed the pan, and then another few when I removed the valve body - all up another 4l on top of the 3 already dropped in step 1.
