    Its 18-20% tint....... not limo, had it on every car ive owned and never had this problem. Can you recommend any brighter lights for the rear that will work?

    18-20% is illegal, 35% is the darkest legal tint(this percentage includes any factory tinting).

    With regards to the other lights, create another thread for those questions. Keep this one on the topic of headlights.

    I find the headlights on mine to be very narrow which has become increasingly noticable since i fitted 18% tint. Pulling into my driveway at night is a guessing game until the car straightens up

    Also while im here, i want to upgrade the miserable reverse lights with cree led's. They will be 16w, do i need error free versions?

    The reason your headlights are narrow and the reverse lights are miserable, is because you have illegal tint fitted. Of course you won't be able to see anything!

  3. Trust the dipstick. Do not overfill. Be aware that you will get false readings from residual oil in the dipstick tube.

    The longer you let it sit, the closer to the 6.1L figure you will get. Keep in mind, those are dry fill specs and the engine will always have residual oil in it(to a degree).

  4. Is the wheel spinning at all? If so, pull the centre cap out and put the wheel back on a lower the car to the ground. Undo from there.

    If it is not spinning and you have no access to a rattle gun. Place the socket on the nut by itself and belt the crap out of it a few times, rinse and repeat.

    I would also suggest buying a 600mm breaker bar similar to the one below. I personally have two of these and they have held up to much bigger stuff than what you are attempting.
