Forum: AWD Magna / Verada

Last time I had to get two new tyres for the front, the only guys I have found to be reliable locally informed me that the Pirelli P7 tyre that I have used for around ten years now, is no longer available and I need to find a replacement. But I have no idea what to go for. The only tyres they had...

For a while now the oil warning light has been staying on when I start the car, it only turned off after the engine revved to 2000 rpm or higher. About two weeks ago we noticed that the engine was noisy so we changed oil and filter, we changed it to castrol magnatec (never had problems with it in...

Can anyone tell me if there are any differences in the seats, front and back, between the 2003/2004 KL/KW models? Did they change the shape/size/bolstering etc?

Hey guys, this is my first post. I recently got a 97 kf ei verada, the interier trim is grey and I'd like to change it all to wood grain. I was wondering how easy it would be to change it all, where I could get it and roughly how much it would cost Thanks

Looking to buy these springs for my AWD with standard 16" rims. I am located in Penrith NSW, anyone know where to get hold of them and the pricing? Interested in oponions of shocks as well. Thanks .

Will strait side skirts off a kw or similar fit on my kf verada without issues? Thanks

Thoughts? ... And ideas on what to do next? *WHEELS AND BRAKES* -From this: https://imageshack.us/i/ip5cL20kj https://imageshack.us/i/paeBUCs4j -To this: https://imageshack.us/i/id6Y0HGsj

G'day All Its been quite a while since I last posted (for a number or reasons, too busy doing other stuff being the main one) though I have a look as a quest every now and then. Anyway about 15months ago I bought another Awd (3rd). Its a TW that had tinted glass, after market sunroof, 12 months...

I am a new member and a new owner of a 2003 AWD Diamante VR, which I think is a rebadged Magna. I don't know much about it, but I previously owned a 92 Diamante which I liked, and I also liked this car when I test drove it. I specifically wanted a large 4WD sedan, and this was about all I could...

Hey guys I recently heard about enlarging 6g75 to 4.2 or 4.6 which is it? I would like any info, has anyone actually done it? What sorta power torque gains are there? How much does it cost to do? Does anyone have one for sale?

Hi, im new here so be nice. I have a 2005 VRX AWD. Fantastic vehicle. I use it for what it was made for and frequent dirt roads. To make life easier I was wondering if anyone made slightly taller springs for the AWD. I'm not after much, maybe an inch at most. Any feed back or ideas would be...

Seeking an owner's manual, not a service manual, for my KJII AWD Verada. PDF or Printed version.

Anyone changed these on the AWD's? Pretty simple or a bastard to do? Mine need changing and will be doing it this weekend.

Need some work done in Adelaide, looking for the Adelaide equivalent of Mits-Fix. A workshop with real knowledge of the ins and outs of these things, prepared to pay for good work. Don't want to trust just any spanner-monkey. Recommendations?

Ok well I now have my car at the stage I would like it to be at - minus the exhaust! I am looking preferably for a bolt on exhaust of some sort onto a TW LS AWD. Can anybody recommend a make and model? I know of the lukey LR2779 and the bolt on equivalent, are they any good? And how much should I...

Hi guys, As per title, are all the AWD front brake pads the same? Or are there some kind of different calipers requiring different pads?

Hi all, This is my first post so be kind ;) . I've just replaced the heater core in my TW AWD, got the dash back in and all sweet..... apart from one thing. My clumsiness has failed me once again and I snapped the little plastic stem that the gear shifter button presses down when shifting from...

Hi everyone! I park my car backwards so I can always put into drive when driving away because there's a thump when shifting into reverse. This usually is only on a cold start and after driving for a bit, there's no problem at all when going into reverse. Its not a huge thump but...

I was going up a road with about a 35-40 degree gradient when the lights ahead went red. I had enough momentum to coast on and out of interest i thought i'd slip into tippy mode to watch the gear incicator count down on the dash. Well it went 3-2-4-1! When it went to 4 i only felt a slight...

Discussion only. Has anybody read the factory manual section on the AWD system? Page 18 of Section 23E AWD General Information. Its parts of the transmission section. The AWD's center differential is in the transmission, the front diff is in the transfer case. So, is the front diff the...
