Forum: Third Generation Magna TE - TW

Hi Guys, 2000 KH Verada XI with Electric Drivers Seat, I was driving home yesterday and the seat suddenly started reclining back, I was not adjusting the switch, and the switch will not raise the seat. Any ideas?

In the parts listing post#62 SARRAS mentioned that one of the PCV vacuum line hoses is NLA and can be replaced by fuel hose. I have the LPG only model and want to find out what is the correct ID size of the fuel hose and the tee type joiners. I have molded hoses from the PCV valve on the...

Hey guys, I have a KJ Verada that I have not driven in over 12 months, I just sold it and had to supply a RWC upon sale, it failed for all the standard reasons, i.e rocker covers leaking etc, however since doing the work over the weekend the cruise has stopped working. The light on the dash comes...

Hi everyone, Are there any special considerations for installing a TL/W dash into a KJ2? For example the wiring at all? Also, while the dash is out what should be done, eg, those heater core hoses and so on?

Here we are people, pic of it installed in my car. Its on a 2nd gen with cruise control, and to my suprise, the wiring was identical, so it was a case of unplug and plug for the wiring, easy as :) Enjoy, was getting dark when I took them, so first pic is with flash so you can see detail, but...

Would appreciate if someone could help me out with a starter issue on a KJ Verada. Starter keeps cranking even with key turned to off. Replaced starter with a new Bosch unit suspecting the solenoid to be stuffed. New motor does the same thing. Got a used starter switch from wrecker same problem....

gonna try to keep this simple. if i buy a tj sedan manual, are all the parts there to turn my wagon manual?? if i remember correctly i was told that from the front seat forward the wagon and sedan are the same? so it should be the same as a sedan conversion (lots of people have done) Also does...

Replacing struts and springs and wondering if anybody has used either of these two . Have read that the lovell springs are a little less harsh ride than the kings but have never heard of webco struts. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Bugger all difference in price. ...

The TW's been in a bingle. The other car hit on the near side front. The front wheel took the impact. The tie rod end is bent at the tie rod, and the strut assembly is bent just above the knuckle mounting bolts. The wheel camber is quite negative. Can anyone answer these questions please. 1. Is...

Hi Guys Im a bit confused about the automatic filter in my 2004 GTVi 5spd....automatic I have been looking at past posts on changing this..Does this model have a internal filter and is it easy to change or buried inside the auto and too difficult to change... ... Sorry if this is one of...

Hi all, . have a 2000 th magna dual fuel, what is the normal operating temp for this car. Mine gets of cold very fast and sits around about half way. The other thing I noticed, was the engine feels really hot and there's a burning smell. If this is not normal how do I fix many thanks in...

Hi all. My first post--hope this is the right forum. We've owned a 2004 ES since it was near new and it's given us 200,000 km of happy, economical driving. Sadly, its transmission just died. It's otherwise in good condition but as a basic fleet model (LPG, no deluxe extras) it's probably not...

Hi guys, I've noticed that my RHS CV joint needs replacing, which I'm having done next week. Today I noticed a light red/pink coloured oil on the ground below the driveshaft/CV area. Is it correct that this would be coming from the CV joint, or is it a separate problem? The fluid seems too...

Cars been sitting for only about 2 weeks, started it up and lot of knocking noise from engine, sounded like valves were actually hitting the piston. Immediately shut it off, checked oil level was on the bottom of the dipstick (though car was leaning to the right a bit) I put about 500ml of oil...

Hi Guys, Thought I would share my story. A rear wheel noise started to occur a couple of weeks ago. O.K. So I thought it was the Wheel Bearings as they were replaced about 60,000kms ago, re-greased now and then. Bought new sets for both sides (inner & outer). Replaced them. Should be O.K. now. ...
