yea one of the guys i work with got a call from his gf in woden who said they just got hit by HUGE hailstones. looked at bom.gov.au noticed another one heading towards the city. Luckily moved the car to the tradies :mad: walked back only spitting at this stage and by the time i got up the lift and to my office i looked at side and it was PISSING DOWN 2 minutes later heaps of hail the car park started turning white :mad: all i can say is i am glad i moved my car

That was pretty full on !! I was down in Gordon visiting when it started. Pulled onto Drakeford Drive and I could actually see the wave of hail stones coming up the road !!

I just gunned it to my place and got the car under cover.

Then after that one had passed we got another hail storm that was bigger !! Damn that lightning got close too !

Tuggers out Condor way was pretty well hit. I was on the phone to Shane about 12:40 and heard it startup in the background. He reckons it was plummeting down within moments. Manged to get a word out to Ed n Jayce, both being in the vicinity.

Didn't seem too bad here in Dickson

wtf i am in transact building in dickson and at one stage its was pretty damn heavy a guy brought back a couple of hail stones about the width of gold balls but half the heigh i would call that pretty big :rofl:

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
