  1. I use Mobil 1 EP 5w30 and i change every 12 months. That's around 12-14k each year i drive.
  2. Anyone here tried this one? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Night-Vision-HD-Vehicle-Car-Dash-Cam-Dashboard-Camera-/270718572859?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f0815993b
  3. Yes I did change the bulbs around and it still has the same problem. I even put the stock bulbs and it has the same problem.
  4. After been hit by another car on the front left side of my car a few months ago and getting the car repaired, I noticed that the right headlight wasn't as strong as it was before the crash. There seems to be a empty patch of light near the middle of the right headlight. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem? Tried playing around withthe adjustments of the lights and it did not help at all. Thanks in advance.
  5. Best way to find out is to take the current headlight out and check what it is.
  6. Does anyone know what the 2nd screw heard the high beam does? Kept turning it and saw nothing.
  7. Those types run alone the roof not across. I prefer across the roof as it's more practical but it's less aerodynamic than the ones that run down alone the roof. No point buying it if you aren't going to put anything on the roof of your Rav4.
  8. You shouldn't have to modify a Rav4 if you are going on dirt/gravel/sand. At most you all you need to change are the tyres to A/T if you want that extra grip on those surfaces.
  9. I'm in west atm. Eastern campus is taken up by the new course Aerospace. A lot of internationals - Yes. Hot - Not Really

  11. Squish that means you must be at RMIT Bundoora. If you see a silver Aurion in the car park say hi.
  12. Washed the Rav 4 and Aurion. Applied 1 layer of Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection and 1 layer of Collinite wax.
  13. Just to let you know the T10 LED are ILLEGAL for parker lights in some states.
  14. Thanks for that "Boris". Guess it was the 3rd one you found but even then, what does the 2nd pic with the screw near the high beam do?
  15. Change the battery in the Aurion from stock which is over 4 years old to a Supercharge Gold battery. Now when the car starts up it sounds like a supercar starting up.
  16. Thread revival. The 1st one is definitely horizonal adjustment but the 2nd one i do not know what is does even after turning it for a while. Does anyone know which one is for vertical? Got the car back and the headlights are too high.
  17. BRB i need to go and change my pants.
  18. For me the best revs i could get at 70km/h about 1.4k rpm, 80km/h about 1.5k rpm and 90km/h about 1.6k rpm. no idea if that is 5th or 6th gear but i think it's 6th gear. Satorl893 i managed to get 230km/h on my Aurion before. IIRC reading somewhere the limit was electronically limited to 235km/h
  19. Yay got my Aurion back from repairs. All nice and clean now.

      Sweet :)

  20. If money isn't a limiting factor you can go after Mobil 1 EP 5w30 for $12 a quart. I use it and it's excellent and i change my oil once a year not twice since it's designed to have extended oil service intervals. http://www.performancelub.com/ Harold who owns the website runs his business in Greensborough so if you live near by you can pick them up and save on shipping cost.
  21. 2 options to possibly fix this. 1. Use fuel injector cleaner. I use Fuel Doctor once in a while to give my fuel system a clean. 2. Floor your car a number of times to clear any blockages in your injectors and it will reset the ecu to a different profile.
  22. Personally i use my phone as a video recorder at 720p @60fps which is more than enough to see car rego clearly. If you look at the screen it's just the home screen or the screen is off but it's recording in the background which fulls a lot of people thinking it's the gps or i'm charging it. You can get a dedicated camera where you mount it behind the rear view mirror. More info on these video recorders are discussed here: http://forums.overcl...d.php?t=1007109
  23. My battery is over 4 years old and it's still going fine. I also have an aftermarket sound system attached the the battery which should kill it faster.
