Sorry to mention names agian...

But you all prob remember me having that lil drama with my suspension not too

long ago...

For those who dont know... i got new suspension fitted, and 1mths after, the front control arm colapsed... (long story short)

well when i took it back to get fixed the fixed it all up, and told me they checked all the other bolts just incease they were loose..

well there has been a loud sqeak coming from my rear recently, and been pissen me off... i checked it out today, and found that one of thr control arm bolts were loose... ANOTHER ONE!

i let them go with the last prob, as they fixed it all up with no hassel... but obviously not...

NOT HAPPY!

i had my suspension setup by chris at inline last week, full coil overs and sway bars. i've got a massive squeak coming from my front left which is unbearable. i don't know what it is, but he couldn't check it out until next week. i'm a little surprised by it as everyone said he knew his stuff.

Chris knows his stuff!!! The only place i go in the canberra area for suspension.

He mite not be the cheepest or the qucikest but you get what you pay for and you cant rush perfection.

That's exactly how Chris works.

He basically won't leave a job alone until he's satisfied the job is done right, which might not be done all in one day. If he takes a week, he takes a week, and every time I've gotten my car back from him it's been superb quality work.

As for the squeaky Stagea,

He's training his new right hand man I think, I wouldn't worry about it too much, take it back & he should fix it properly.

Yeah i know he's the best. i figured out it's just the camber kit hasn't been lubricated. today while driving in the wet the squeak all but dissappeared, so that settled my concerns.

i'll be getting it fixed and lowered a bit more on wednesday, look out for my cool looking wagon at a store near you!

I would also recommend Ian and co @ Howard Revell in fyshwick. They solved a serious tramping problem I had on my old CA18DET 1200 ute without resorting to tramp rods. He wouldnt let the car out of the shop unless it was right. When I picked it up, it was perfect and I never had a problem again.

I believe he also works on Martins EVO (VIII?) race car - the one that won last years Dutton Rally.

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
