ok so the common problem people have with c34 stageas and turbo timers is when the lights are on auto and the turbo timer is on and u get out the lights dont turn off even when u open the door you must wait till the car shuts down then open and close the door very anoying.

The easiest fix is put a relay on the earth wire {black wire} to the auto lights module behind the instrument cluster and hook it up to the ignition so when the turbo timer shuts down the lights go out no matter what. i wired mine up that way 1 week ago and works great.

i even covered the sensor on the dash with a black sticker so the lights are always on when i am driving looks better and safer

parts needed 5 pin relay

female spade terminals and crimper

screwdriver

test light or multimeter

relay pin 30 cut earth wire from auto light module

pin 85 ignition

pin 86 earth

pin 87a other side of cut auto light wire

have fun

Yep the cluster needs to come out and the box is just behind it held with one screw I don't have a photo of the relay that I put in but just get a normal automotive change over relay and follow my instructions and u can't go wrong

Weird I've never been in one with out it.... (Been in over 10)

Personally I wouldn't put tape over the light sensor on the dash either as this is also used by the climate control unit.

The sensor on the Passenger side is for the climate control, driver's side, auto lights.

    • Ha ha ha! I know those feels mate I've finally got the garage cleared enough that next weekend I'll do some actual work on my car (hopefully). Unfortunately garage isn't usable after 10am at the moment That said, I've done a lot of work this weekend on helping finalise a friend's Production Race car. Full started Christmas Eve. We're down to about 8 tasks on the list, including "get a wheel alignment". Sometimes it's just easier working on someone else's car or project than our own stuff 😛
    • Ha ha, ended up going it alone.  I just sent it (in a very nervous fashion).  Once I'd released the locks and it didn't automatically start spinning out of control i felt a bit more confident.   It made some loud sounds (cracking and creaking noises) when I first spun it which got the heart rate going again!  I couldn't bring myself to leave it tipped on the side.  I feel a bit more comfortable having back right side up while it sits there. I'd get angry with your last point but you're 100% correct! 😅 Even yesterday I managed to distract myself at numerous times to make a bracket to fit an LED flood light off the back of the house and fix my sons pushbike.  There were other little taks nibbling at my brain for the rest of the day too...
    • Probably one of the more nerve wracking experiences of my entire life! 😂😂 The balance (centre of gravity) is out still but in a direction that gives me comfort!   It's quite bottom heavy still meaning it takes a bit of muscle to rotate it.  The plus side of that is that it wants to to go back to upright.  Better that than wanting to go all stranded turtle on me!
    • hmmm that's not ideal. This is a pretty new engine right, will be interesting if your engine guy has any theories about causes
    • A universal ball joint removal c press kit is better money spent and will work for the Hicas ball joints.  Here's a 45$ CAD Example. ATPEAM Heavy Duty Ball Joint Press Kit with 4WD Adapters | Professional 4 in 1 Ball Joint Press Removal and Installation Tool for Cars and Trucks | Universal Ball Joint Tool with Storage Case, Ball Joint & Tie Rod Tools - Amazon Canada
