Hey guys I've got RAC roadside and are such entitled to a small number (maybe once per year?) of towing. I've had car towed to my house before when it was broken down on the side of a road.

I was curious to know if they would tow your car from your house to a workshop even when you know the car is already f*cked.

Wondering if they only do this when your actually stranded on the side of a road somewhere and they would not generally do it otherwise.

Otherwise I can just push my car down the road and then call em.

I'm also worried about the type of tray truck they use damaging my lowered R34. Might have to call Gerrin to be safe.

I had my car towed recently...broke down at barbagallo....and they towed me back and then two days later to the workshop.....all for free...and I have a classic membership....I live in joondalup..so its not too far however....

you can call them as many times in a year and your entitled to 2 tows per problem....

my car is shit low...mention that when you call...and they send out a guy who owns and carries additional planks etc....

it took a lot of back n forth...but we got there in the end...

one operator refused to do it..but then again he didnt have the planks..even after i mentioned it on the phone..so i called them..and they sent another truck out within half an hour

    • Hi All Does anyone know what size bolts are used to mount the bonnet hinge to the bonnet on an R32 GTR please? I'd usually just buy them OEM but they are nearly £20 each and I need all 4
    • interestingly enough, i found out the answer is yes. doing a flush did fix my recurring A/T light. it might have been because of the trans filter: but that doesn't really make sense to me. the fluid/filter was super dirty. would that increase the pressure in the lines and trigger an A/T light? does the car even have a way of detecting that? i have no idea. i've done 200+ miles after the flush and no A/T light. if my A/B solenoids went bad, i would think the light would've come on. shifts and drives way better now though...at 2k rpm instead of 2500...no hesitation and downshifts when i want it to. 
    • I vote go red. Only because I hate keeping gloss black clean. Was no worries helping out either! Glad you've survived the rain outs of QLD
    • I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real
