Or a screw

Of which btw - we are all still waiting to see the defect notice or whatever with a screw listed on it - as you said.

HA AHA HA

The second and third fines was just a fine letter saying $292 for driving a unroadworthy vehicle. That's the problem. Nothing listed. Why do you think I lost it?

It's because I still have a valid roadworthy and just cleared it a few weeks before and then they fine me again.

Rubbish - every canary i've had lists the items that are unroadworthy.

How can you just say a car is "unroadworthy" without specifiying what needs to be fixed?

I think we busted that mystery.

it sounds like he got the fine they like handing out not actually a defect my mate got one a couple weeks ago for too low but no defect just infringement notice.. which is stupid cos he doesnt have to show anyone that the car has been raised etc.

can someone clarify does the defect notice need 5 items for a major? someone told me this and i find it hard to believe i got 2 things listed and "inspection incomplete" which vicroads had never heard of inspection incomplete..

:banana:

one big enough flaw will give you a major if the Office sees it as a safety issue, IE; tyres on belts. it is up to the officers discretion.

If that's the case, keep the RWC and the fine.. don't pay it and take the matter to court. How can you be fined for driving an unroadworthy car without being told what is unroadworthy on it?

Exactly.

You cannot defect a car and say it is Unroadworthy - without actually stating what the problem is.

That is just retarded.

in the last week, i've only seen 2cop cars. whats the big deal with everyone ? your car is a magnet, leave it at home,

if its legal to the eye, no problems.

thanks for that..

maybe it would be nice to go for a drive given the good weather

i agree nismoid but that is what they are doing just handing out $292 fine as an infringement notice.

I would definitely contest all of these fines. If they don't NOU the car I don't see how it's possible to issue fine for Unroadworthy vehicle. Any decent solicitor should be able to get you off that if you ask me. Roadworthiness is a safety issue so fines irrelevant IMO as NOU is to force person to make car safe. I fyou give out fine without NOU then your defeiting the purpose. Doesn't make any sense to me and I would think court would agree.

Ash,

Please read my posts again. I got a canary initially - yes, of course I got all the yellow sticker and the list of things to fix - yes. However, the subsequent fines did not involve a canary. You may recall that I wrote, I can't believe they can fine me again for having an unroadworthy vehicle and $292 only days after I got a full RWC and had cleared it with Vicroads.

This is why I am upset. So to recap, canaried - cleared it, then fined again after that without canary.

Thank you...now you feel my anger...the pointed to various things as I had mentioned before and then just said it's unroadworthy even after I showed them my RWC I got a few days before that.

      That specific one would be an exchange part, meaning I'd have to send mine to them. Plus it looks like a non AWD sump, which won't work for me. There is one or two shops in my country that I can ask to do a sump extension job and it'd most likely end up being cheaper than sending mine to AUS or NZ and getting one back, and quicker too.

      Rear turbo is leaky, most likely at the oil drain. From what I could see with my boroscope it seemed to have seeped out at the very top of that return hose. Is it possible that the oil climbs up that hose to then leak out? Yup, coolant leak on the hot side of the engine, only noticed after seeing clear rusty residue in the block right from the turbo oil feed downwards to the pan, and red droplets hanging from the pan. No clear sign yet from where it comes, and most of the lines there are hardlines right? Last year, seeing those red drops, I thought it was power steering, will be glad if that is not leaky at least. Another leaking hose I found by chance is the lower of the two heater core hoses coming from the firewall to the back of the head. That one is not too bad to get to if I have to replace.

      I think for response I'm already kind of out there no? he -5s are not the best pick for that as the Internet tells me. Maybe I should switch to -7s while I still can? Though that almost definitely warrants an engine pull along with the other issues I have.

      Which I agree with. I don't want or need a high hp straight line car, I want it to be fun on the road and nothing more. Hence why I said my max power goal will be around 500 crank. The few times I drove the car last year I didn't even use high boost and it was already quick enough for me, should have been around 380-400 crank I think (2860-5s at 1-1.1bar).
