Forum: 380 DB Series I - Series III

Hi Gurus Been searching the archives .... no luck Apologies if this has been posted before .... I have a heap of questions ...... Will 16" VRX alloys fit a 380? I understand the PCD and stud thread diameter/pitch is the same, but what about offset and width? Do the rims rely on the hub...

https://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110814876582&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT I purchased these off eBay the other day. When I received them, me and my friend who has installed a few pairs of HIDs gave it a bash. But things werent as easy as we had planned. For some reason, the...

To those with 380's and a sub, how have you stopped that really annoying rattle in the sun glasses holder? I can drop it down a little which helps stop it, however this blocks the rear view mirror. Any ideas?

I have added mits-fix to my files for future reference. Thank you for the info. I have just been quoted $1100.00 to: Supply &change transmission fluid supply and fit timing belt, seals, tensioner etc supply and fit rear window regulator supply and fit platinum spark plugs I know that the work...

Just wondering whether i need to replace the timing belt on a 2007 GT at the next service in order to maintain the manufacturers warranty. The car is due for its 90000k service but has only done 80000km. I was hoping to postpone it until it actually travels the mileage. Does this apply with...

hi everyone - I am planning to change the OEM pads on my 380 - I think they have more life in them but I am sick of the noise when cold. Car has around 56,000kms. I got some Bendix General CTs as replacement and now thinking about new rotors. The OEM rotors were machined under warranty...

Hi, New to this forum. Have had a ts/tr magna then a tf magna now proud owner of 2007 es 380. Purchased with 89000 k. Am very happy with the performance and fit out. As I would like to do most services myself I was wondering if there is a service manual available for this makel? Have downloaded...

This is just a quick one guys, I wanted to hook up and amp and sub on my 380 but the thought has just occured to me does the 380 audio have rca's outputs on back? I've got the integrated stereo so Im guessing if it doesn't then I have to put in a double din unit... thanks for any help:bowdown:

My passenger seat has a little tear in it just above the airbag & feels like there's a wire of some sorts underneath that's poking which caused the tear especially when someone sits in the seat. You guys had any luck claiming any defects with your leather? The car is obviously still under...

Hi all Came across this on eBay: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/250821189356?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#shId While the 380/Galant isn't specifically listed, does anyone know how close the curvature of the boot is to the ones that are? I think this would look quite nice...

Hi all, Does anyone know off-hand if there's an ACC 12 volt wire in the boot area of a 380 anywhere? Cheers

Just wondering whether the wire leading to the auto adjusting RV mirror should be exposed. Only noticed it the other day & was wondering whether it should be covered.

OK not really an accurate description but the thingy(due to lack of better word) when you insert the buckle into makes this noise when I'm going round corners & when it tensions up. My TJ did the same thing. Anyone else experience this or have a fix?

So I need some protection. :hmm: For my car. This time next Sunday, I will be sitting on the banks of the Murray River, cold beverage in hand, enjoying (I hope) a warm afternoon sun after having had a lovely refreshing dip. I'm driving to Echuca next Sunday. Involves traveling on...

My beloved 2007 380 SX copped a beating on X-mas day. The roof is well and truely peppered with dimples (too many to count) and the boot has a few. The bonnet for some reason fared pretty well and only has a couple and the top of the driver guard has a dent. I'm waiting to hear back from my...

Hi guys, I've been looking at lowering my 380, unfortunately all I can seem to find for it are super lows without bagging it or using coil overs. Has anyone manged to lower theirs more than the the average 50mm that the super lows provide, if so how? Thanks, Michelle :)

Well,seeing as this is 380 specific,i will put it here. There has been talk of getting some AMC /// 380 stickers made up. Seeing as there is now enough interest ,i will call past the printer this morning and get the ball rolling and get a batch made up for you all..I can tell you now that...

Has anyone out there had any problems with the power steering on their 380? I can't put my finger on it but it just doesn't 'feel' right especially at low speeds when it feels heavy. It's also apparent that the sound of the power steering motor has become a lot more noticeable over the last few...

Hay all What times have people run in stock 380s on a quater mile. Has anyone cracked in the 14s yet in a 380 with mods? Cheers Kurt

Hi guys I find that my parking sensors are giving off a long constant sound when in reverse - regardless of what is behind the car - so they are not working properly. This has happened a couple of times in the last few years and the problem previously went away after washing the car. This time...
