Finally got my antenna working - all it needed was stripping down, cleaning and putting back together. Here is what happens now:

When stereo is turned on, antenna goes up about half way

When I push the Series II antenna switch up, the antenna goes all the way up and when it is down, it is about half way.

When playing CD's the antenna remains at about half way.

Is this normal or should the antenna come down fully when the antenna switch is in the down position?

Cheers, Al

When your switch is in the 'half way' postion, your antenna should be at half mast. When it's in the 'full extended' position the antenna should be fully extended, regardless of whether playing cd's or listening to radio. I say since you've got your aerial going up everytime you switch on stereo, don't worry about whether it sits at half or full.

Cheers

What head unit are you using as I know that some head units, such as Alpine, that is a function of the unit itself?

Mine is a Panasonic MP3/CD unit without that functionality

Some of the decks don't have an arial cable to connect the arial to so that it willonly goup if your listening to the radio so then the car arial cable will have to be hooked up to the deck remote and so this will get the arial up as soon as you trun it on.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
