hahahh... today my car were making some weired sound under the bonnet... so I had a look but the sound went away...

It sounded like thin metal was rubbing together, you know one of those high pitch noise...

anyway I gave good look Boody flattened empty coke can was stuck between arm bush and front left wheel drive train.

so every time I steer left or right, it made that noise...ffs

I thought I blew something... :lol:

anyway I yanked it out! all ok nice and smooth no noise exapt sound from exhaust hehehheheh..... Broooommmm!!!:burnout:

Moral of story?!?

If your car makes strange noise pull over and check it out b4 it gets bigger problem and check under side of your car time to time!(while I was checking under the car, unfortunally I could not locate my Neons :O)

cheers

Yeah i once had a bird with it's neck wrapped around part of my underbody, so i said Oi! NO TEETH! now get back in the Kitchen and cook me some pie!

AHAH sorry guys i had to!:cool:

I thought coke cans were a modification from Japan to help compression under the engine bay AH MAN! *25GTT slips outside to remove 12 coke cans from under his bonnet*

Had a bad one of those on the weekend. The Ulsar was giving off a rubber smell on the way home on Sat night. Sunday arvo took a look and the rear hand brake line was lying across the exhaust. Really bad design gives bugger all room for the hand brake cable beteewn exhaust and fuel tank. Took a while to fix as well..grrr

UNLESS IF THEY SNEEZE! then it's bye bye to Mr Winky! And Hello John Bobbet!:uh-huh:

you know how they say coke can cleans coins and stuff if you were to spill it on plastic say in your console somewhere do you think it would melt away at paint or plastic if left untreated? or grow mould and grow into some grotesque creature which takes over perth then vows for world domination against pepsi?

Can of Coke exploded in my car the other day. I cleaned and cleaned, and I am still finding sticky spots.

Blue Pepsi, Worst idea ever. It is The smae as normal pepsi, just blue and slightly worst tasting. Terrible terrible idea, and no ads for it! It's going no where.

Greg. :devfu:

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
