My money is on the handle end is broken.

The plastic receptacle on the back of the handle assembly is broken where the ball end of the cable sits. A genuine handle assembly from memory is around $30.

Easily replaced, it just pops out of the door card

zuh.

(yes)

he's already got 5 stars ;) :P :D

*shrugs*

If what i have contributed aol far isn't worth a star...

Gotta work harder for it! ;)

That's a lazy attitude you have there Trent. you're not being very helpful at all.

;)

*tumbleweeds*

Sunday 15th would work bests for me

Reduced earnings (still in the black) primarily due to Acts of God and a strong currency, both of which the company has no control over.

Doesn't seem like much of a worry to me

What a pain. I forwent giving the Lexus a once-over because it could have rained.

Not a drop the moment I left work @ 2pm.

pull an Andrew?

Rain is forecast. Likely to be Hoppys again

According to this there is a gasket. Eventually as the gasket begins to perish you will lose more fluid at a quicker rate (as the 'spring' in the gasket is no longer sealing the plate to the mount) and you'll have a timing chain with inappropriate fluid levels.

I'd enquire to see how much it would cost to replace.

my bmw came with 2 pairs of these underbody flaps from factory... so maybe they are useful in cars at stock

My mum's Lexus gs460 has them as well. I've always wondered what they are for as they visually stick out and ruin the flow of the car.

edit: Massive english fail.

I'll be out tonight. Need to unwind a little.

Injector cleaners can only do so much but Fuel Doctor seems to work well. Using the stuff isn't rocket science; just add a bottle to a tank of fuel and drive it.

I've recently paid for a on-car fuel injector clean which involved them disconnecting the fuel line and running a device that contains some serious injector cleaning fluid directly to the engine. Time will tell how much of a difference it will make

Did some work on the Camry again, used an array of products to achieve the best results possible without using the more... 'elitist' products:

- Meguiars Aggressive detailing clay

- Meguiars Medium Cut Polish (1 pass)

- Meguiars Fine Cut Polish (1 pass)

- AutoGlym Super Resin Polish (2 passes)

- Menzerna SWPROTECT Sealant/Wax (1 pass)

- Mothers Step 2 Sealer + Glaze (Pre-2012 product; no abrasives) (1 pass)

- Meguiars M26 Liquid Wax (1 pass)

The heavier scratches still remain (however are faint) if you look closely, but the combination of the AutoGlym/SWPROTECT/Mothers Step 2 managed to finely polish the surface and increase the paint depth to such a degree where they are difficult to see.

Another thing was to test the mixing of various products but it has not seemed to affect the appearance/feel of the finish at all.

I like the loops.

We can also cast a spell of relocate anyway (casting being the act of physically driving the car to another location)

you can find your paint code with your VIN in your engine bay.

Given your description and the year model, i am guessing you have Pacific Blue, paint code 8N8.

^ I was going to say the same thing

Why can't it says Premium Unleaded only makes it easier like in the Lexuses. I'm tempted to use Regular Unleaded but just scared it's not suitable for the car.

You aren't driving a Ferrari V12.

e10/Unleaded/Premium. take your pick

AVGAS :D

so helpful Michael

I've never used E10 before, where can i get it cos it's not 91 RON with 10% Ethanol is it?. Or should i just used 95/98 Premium Unleaded?

That is e10. Use whatever suits your budget as you won't see much of a difference between the choices available

Errr...thats how they do the tuning, on the dyno.

Whenever someone says I'm going to get it dyno'ed I see that as a power run, not a tune!

Thats what i meant :P, dyno TUNE :D

I am sure that is exactly what you meant!

i'll get around to dyno first. as for mod plating andrew, can i use your guy, he sounds reasonable? ^_^

Tony is very reasonable. I sms you the details.

Tuning first, Dyno last. No use getting a power reading if you aren't properly set up

Engine bay is pretty busy, but I like it. And its good to see another join the ranks of boosted brethren

needs to be dyno'ed now, and get it tuned ASAP!

This guy speaks from experience.

BTW, how's that modplate going?
