Forum: AWD Magna / Verada

Quick wheel question. Looking at new rims and just need to confirm a few things. Firstly our pcd is 114.3? So I'm assuming only wheels with the same stud pattern will actually fit? Secondly rim size - 18x8 will fit (just) with no rubbing? And thirdly offset - anywhere between +35 and +45...

My 2003 AWD has gone from getting 12-13 l/100km to 17 l/100km in the last month & I'm starting to think a stuffed O2 sensor may have something to do with it. For you more knowledgeable members here, is the O2 sensor change out a DIY job for someone with average mechanic skills? Where's the O2...

Hi All, I am planning to upgrade my rims to 18". Currently running 225/55R17 on 17x7 40+ offset rims. Could people with 18" rims reply with their details to aid me in chosing the right sized tyres and rim offsets. Ta. Don't know if there are any differences between the J and L/W series so...

Any chance guys you would know of the front brake pads for AWD TW will fit TJ II AWD cars? The part number for them is MR929925. Can someone cross check it for me? Thanks

I'm in need of a suitable engine builder/re-conditioner that knows his/her way around an AWD engine and gearbox set up. I have decided to supercharge. So now its time be build! Any help would be great !

Am planning to tow a 20' boat. All up weight of boat and trailer about 1400kg. I am a bit worried about the back end of the AWD (TL) being a bit low for both towing and launching. Anyone had experience of this who can give me some useful info? Any tips on special gear to make it work better?

Hey guys. Just thought i would let you know that i just picked up some Bendix Ultimates from Repco on Special. Aparently they are clearing out their storages of them and no longer going to hold them in stock. DB1223 Fronts RRP$297. I paid $125 DB1231 Rears RRP $186. I paid $70. Don't...

not sure whats going on but i understand my car has a 72 lt tank.so why when my fuel light comes on and the gauge reads empty do i fill up and only get no more than 55lts in????its got me stuffed.am i the only one? cheers

OK - on a very tight budget- as in zero- a couple of months ago bought a set of four Pirelli P7's- 215/60/16- yeah I know the car looks better with 18" but reality check- could replace all tyres for $620- I have recently found I have a set of four 16x7 mags sitting in the garage- is there anything...

Hi all Have tried a search but couldn't find an answer. I gave the engine bay of my 2003 TJII AWD a light degrease today and was VERY careful to keep the water off any electrical connectors, but fear I may have hit one. Since doing the degrease, my gearbox is doing some strange things....

Another TL AWD ? I have had mine from new and it first developed a slight clunk in the LHS front at 400 klm. Not long after that the rhs also developed the same noise. After numerous trips back to the dealer I finally got someone to believe me about the noise. It had both struts replaced, both...

Got a TL VRX AWD, and of late the exhaust note seems to have changed a bit. Sounds a bit hollow, rattly, like there is a hole somewhere. I've got HM headers for the record. Had it checked out by 2 exhaust places and no leak could be found. So in a nutshell looking to change the cat back...

Just a question for those with an AWD lowered. What sort of camber do you guys have on the rear?? I don't know what how much camber the AWD ran with stock suspension, I haven't kept any wheel alignment sheets from previous alignments. With my latest alignment I have -1.33 degrees on the left...

Hey guys! happy new year! I'm just about to buy an 03 tj AWD, to replace my tj FWD. Is there any problems i should be looking for, or are they just as reliable as the FWD's? And can anyone tell me if there is a big difference in the way they handle?

Curious if owners of AWD's have fitted a Magnaflow muffler. If so what part number. I contacted a distributor and quoted part number 14832 for a popular muffler used by some FWD members, but the muffler doesn't allow for a offset inlet which I need for the AWD. Any help?????

Just wanted to get peoples opinion on how badly my tyres have worn. Is this a generic issue with AWD's as I've heard that they do 'tend' to wear unevenly. As discussed in the tyres topic, I've gone through two new sets of tyres on the front in under 18 months, with them wearing almost soley the...

Do EVO 6 F & R brake lines fit AWD Magna?

Just wondering if the AWD's have a different setting / profile for wheel alignments vs the front wheel drives?? I'm due for a wheel alignment soon and just want to check if anyone knew of any differences? If any? Thanks,

Own an 03 AWD magna which has done about 132,000km is using excessive oil. Cant see all oil mark were i park it nor is it blowing smoke. Any Ideas!

Hey guys, lately I've been noticing an incredibly annoying high pitched whine when I'm driving around. It happens at about 60km/h at a modest volume (I originally thought It was just my new tyres/road noise) and will stick around as I slow down to about 40km/h. I won't notice it unless the stereo...
