I spent my day Posted Image'ing around with the car.

bled the coolant again to get more airbubbles out, was playing up again, still some air in there but I CBF doing any more to that today.. can wait.

Found this oil treatment shiz that you add to the oil and run it for 10 mins, prior to changing the oil, supposedly it smashes all the sludge build up in the galleys and what not.... got to say I have never seen the oil gush out of the sump so quickly, this stuff turned it to water, would not have been 1 minute and it was all out and down to a slow drip, filled the fucker back up and BAM! clear as oil, not even a slight tinge of what used to reside in there... It is a German made stuff and batts on about how good they are at doing stuff... guess in this case they were right.

Also re-adjusted the ECV, trip I did yesterday was aweful car wise, car was gutless as **** and had no boost downlow.... worked out that when I went to tighten the adjustment rod on the ECV I had actually loosened it off by accident... fixed and much nicer now :D

Finished it all off with a good wash..... and as per usual it rained right as I finished drying it... almost managed to walk 3 m after I finished drying it and BAM rain.... pretty sure some witch has cursed me because this is happening EVERY time I wash the car now.

So, me and some mates were sitting on the verandah last night having some drinks and chatting. All of a sudden the sensor light in front of the car comes on. I'm thinking, what's going on here (it was 2.30 in the morning). See some shadows moving around...thinking this is a bit dodgy..wtf?!?!

Me and mates walk down the front slowly and see 2 kiwi blokes walking around my car. 3 of us jump out and say what do you think your doing, they jump about a mile and then and bail down the street...we chase them but we were pretty drunk and they lost us quick.

So what do you think? Someone just admiring my car in the middle of the night or up to no good....?

Time to clean out the garage and park it inside overnight me thinks.

Seems pretty dodgy to me!

I washed my car too! But it didn't rain, and now it's sleeping in the shed!

I've heard some people whinge about that flush saying how it dislodges shit and moves it somewhere else so I've never used it in this motor. Not to say they are right.

Tell you what though, I will be ordering a drain valve for Rach's lancer, makes changing oil that little bit more pleasant!

Yeah seems dodgy to me as well. I was right pissed off.
Love to get a dog, but I rent and there is no room for one :(

Love for them to come around again..

Lucky you caught them, Jesse! I'd say they were definitely up to no good.

I would take precautions though and lock your car away over night but I reckon it'll be a while before they come back ;)


I installed some LEDs.

COME AT ME, BRO!

Parkers look heaps better next to the HIDs now.

Also hit up the number plate lights for the hell of it. Might change them back though...

Yeah that was the plan but as I said we were pretty drunk and had to walk on pebbles :/

Yeah, I don't think they would be able to steal the car, but i realised my car has no lock nuts :dash2:

Morgan.. thank you for continuing to pay my wage.. I think you should sell some more cars!

**** I love Chilli... such a good thing.

Just made two Chilli Chicken burgers to go with my beer.

Buns coated in Sambal Oelek
Fresh chopped Thai Hot Chillies on top
Chicken marinated in a mixture of Sambal Oelek and Nandos XXX Hot sauce
All finished off with Habanero Chilli sauce :D... Enjoyable.

just to clarify, Sambal Oelak is a Chilli paste :D delish.

The nandos sauce is a mixture of Serrano chilli and African Birds Eye Chilli :D..

It didn't turn out to be over the top hot either, just had a bit of bite about it.. will try harder next time :P

Yeah mate, plenty of better places to go. I'm surprised they didn't hear us talking on the verandah though. May have been completely innocent, but yeah...
