3 times in the last 2 days i've started the car, put it into reverse and forward and it takes 2 or 3 seconds for the trans to engage. Has anyone had this before?

Owners manual specifies Dextron 2 or 3 for Power steering.

Hi all, just after some advice. The clutch on my 380 has recently started to slip and needs changing. I am thinking of having a go at it myself. I have changed clutches in other cars in the past and have some experience. I am just trying to get a little motivated.. Has anyone any experience with...

Mother in Law is getting me to service her 380, dropping the oil and changing the filter is fine. How hard is it to change the plugs? I know they are a coil on plug, like my wifes puddlejumper, but, any specific way? Is there a MAF or similar sensor on the air intake? It has thrown up a...

Hi people! In this topic I want to talk about how you can make the rear spoiler. Yes, of course you can buy if it is on the market. And if there isn't? For example, for upgraded Galant 9th gen, I have nothing worthwhile is not found. Except that it....

I'm planning to do all the fluids in the next couple of weeks and was wondering what people use to bleed their brakes. Anyone got any recommendations on a one man bleeder?

Bought a 2006 380 with 138xxx on the clock about a month ago. When idle (and at take off until you get up to around 10km/h) in drive or reverse on LPG - the car shakes gently with what I guess you'd call misfires. No such problem in park or neutral but gets severely worse while the A/C is on (to...

I just dropped the 380 in for a scheduled service and I was told that a recall has been issued for a 380 drive belt. I could not get any extra info at the time, I have not received a memo from MMAL and nothing is showing on the Aus Gov recalls website. Will try and get more info when I pick up...

I did a google site search for this, but couldn't find a post detailing a problem similar to mine. Currently, my drivers side window is UP and will not wind down. Its not loose, and it hasn't dropped. Mechanically it feels good.... aside from the fact it just doesn't move. Not wanting to...

Hey guys my battery is stuffed and I need to purchase a new one just wondering if anyone could give me advice on a type of car battery or a specific store to purchase one, thanks

I recently had a tail light stop working on my 380GT. Obviously, I figured the bulb had blown so I changed it however, that didn't fix the problem. I then switched bulbs on both sides and the LHS tail light would always work whereas the RHS would fail with the working bulbs. Now I'm thinking...

Hi all, After reading about some members having trouble starting their 380's due to a faulty switch, next thing it happened to mine so I went and picked up the part straight away and today I swapped the parts over. Here's a brief write up...... First, start with a 380 ...

Hi, I thought that I should share the knowledge that I've acquired by fixing my IMPCO BRC gas injection issue. I had random stalling, shuddering, and misfires while running on gas. Running on petrol was not an issue. Also gas usage and mileage went through the roof, (couldnt even get 300km on...

Hey. Someone reversed into my 380 the other day! They were kind enough to leave a note on the windscreen though! Anyway, the rear bumper is cactus and needs to be replaced. I've not seen this on another 380 to my knowledge that I've noticed, and wondering if anyone could advise as to...

So I was considering getting some of that universal bumper lip stripping to help protect what is left of my front bar from the height of some of our gutters, also to hide the gutter rash on the pod/flaires, until I one day replace it. https://www.ebay.com.au/ulk/itm/231634439717 - this stuff.. ...
