Officer Pettiet - knox TMU - TOTAL WANKER


Recommended Posts

This guy is a total f*cking wanker. He defects my car and doesn't even give me a week to drive it, i got defected at about 8:45 and he puts on the canary that the car cannot be used after 8:30pm that night so i was supposed to get it towed home....... If u ever get pulled over by this fagget dont expect anything less than a total f*ck up the arse. The worst thing is he drives a silver/grey undercover XR8 so u cant even see this ugly mug coming. Most cops are ok when they give u a canary, i mean they defect you and all but at least they give u a week to drive the car around and get it fixed, and more importantly just to get the car home, This cop goes out of his way to be a dicksnap.

I live in Knox and go there every week. I have been pulled over a couple of times but most of the Police have been good.

I would make a formal complaint as there seems to be a lot of issues with this particular police officer.

He is just a total f*ckwit....he pulls u over for no reason then defects the crap out of you. I think its unfair to have to get the car towed home, I always thought there was a minimum of a week that they had to give you unless there was something intrinsically wrong with the car that made it unsafe - there was nothing wrong with my car that made it unsafe, sure its a bit low, blow off valve, boost controller but nothing that would be of any harm to myself or other road users. I've owned the car for just under a year and its never been 'unsafe' as Officer Dicksnap said. I'm happy to make a complaint against this turd and if anyone else wants to aswell then send me a PM.

Chief: You busted up that cruise pretty bad, Pettete. Did you really have to issue so many canaries?

Pettete: You tell me, Chief. You had a pretty good view from behind your desk.

Homer: Ah, Pettete: eases the pain.

Chief: You're off the case, Pettete!

Pettete: You're off *your* case, Chief!

Chief: What does that mean exactly?

Homer: [yelling] It means he gets results, you stupid chief!

you guys should put in a formal complaint or do something about it.. rather than just whinge.

plant drugs on him or something and get him fired.. easily done :rofl:

pretty much every victorian out eastside has run across of him, and you hear his name across lots of different forums whenever vic is mentioned..

Just make a complaint to the ombudsman (spelling)

if they receive enoughh written complaints they are compelled to act.

I'll be doing that in the near future with a few "initiatives" ill be taking to combat the frequent victimisation. If i have success (which im sure i will) ill try get everyone modified car owner in Vic doing it.

Then we'll see who gets hassled.

Just watch what you say on public forums. Its happened on ns.com where they have read victorian forums then gone and found out who people are and defected them (white_s13) at their work. So please make a formal complaint and try to sort out this issue that way, public forums just attract too much attention. sorry to be downer japcab, i know what your talking about, 2 of my friends have been reamed and not allowed to drive the car home, for a bleed valve!

:( I love it!

Yeah sounds to me like this officer may have some issues. I'm from Knox and havn't had a worry.....yet, so fingers crossed. I do agree that IF he is really just playing it hard and being unfair then somthing needs to be done.

Yeah thats VERY true. It's a fantastic idea to carry one and pull it out when they are talking to you, it's within your rights and you'll notice how their attitude changes pretty quickly. It's a nice effective trick but of course if your in the wrong in the first place then there isn't much you can do!

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
