Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I pretty much always walk around my car before I hop in.

I'm mostly looking for scratches and dents, but I'm sure I'd pick up a piece of paper on the rear window.

heheh same here.. n also i just think in my head "ohh wow how hot is my car" hahahahah..

but who looks thier doors before startin their car tho??

Some id!ot carjacker to-day tried to carjack one smart dude.

He leapt into the driver's back seat and put a stranglehold on the motorist > told him to drive to Liverpool.

On the way, the driver detoured into Granville Police Stn leaning on the horn > off-duty copper arriving at the Stn arrested the carjacker.

'blast from the past thread' yes but...

Yesterday, a woman stopped at a red light in Liverpool

> one man with a knife threatened her

> she pushed him aside with her driver's door as she got out

> she got onto the median strip and screamed

> her Civic rolled forward trapping an accomplice's leg

> carjacker in the driver's seat got out to help

> woman jumped back into her car and drove over the man's leg and took off

This sounds like a typical scare-monger story fabricated and emailed around by stay-at-home mums who believe the stories on A Current Affair and Today Tonight - ie. it's utter bullsh!t. I can only see this story scaring women who are imaginig a whole horror-story scenario in their head as they read this, where they get followed, raped and hurled into a dumpster.

    • This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone
    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
