I have just stumbled upon a link to what I would term a technical archive for FWD cars. https://www.aussiemagna.com/forums/archive/index.php?f-10.html I hope that Administrators will make this a "sticky", just like the similar resource I happened to find for the AWD sub-forum. ...

I notice that the ISC gets dirty and I wonder if these should be replaced at regular intervals instead of waiting for them to fail. They do seem to fail, with a few threads on these forums about idle issues that turn out to be the ISC playing up. It must be the carbon, oil and hot/cold cycles...
Are there bump stops for the rear struts on TJ Magna sedan? I cant find anything related to it, ebay and such only sell 'front bump stops', I had dobinsons LOWS/sachs from mitsfix installed all round late 2018 + KYB BSK001 front bumpstops .. fronts are fine but the REAR shocks (model#: 310 886) are...
Hi all, just wondering if the rear muffler on a KL verada is the same as the rear muffler on TE-TW Magna's ? cheers
I recently puchased a nice TL GTVi FWD with idling issues. It run like a dog on the 100k drive home and was as thirsty as hell. The idle was rough and occasionally the car would miss. Also showed CEL and traction control wouldn't work. On a whim I pulled the front plugs just to see what was in...
hi guys, this one has been giving me lots of dramas as i cannot pinpoint why it happens. sometimes engine either idles too low or too high, so i set it correct again , then it is fine for an unknown amount of time, maybe a day maybe a week, then suddenly whatever i set it to changes again.....
my TW, 180k km, has suddenly started using coolant. The gauge is fine, it drives beautifully, no obvious leaks on the ground, no milkshake on the dipstick or visible thru the oil filler cap. I put a new radiator cap on about year ago, so that's probably OK. No damp spot on the passenger side floor....
Hi I own a 2005 TW VRX sedan I want to check the position of the TPS Mine has THREE terminal wires So can anyone tell me which terminals I should connect an Ohm meter across to find the correct position when rotating the TPS from showing a reading to open circuit. It also has Traction Control...
I am going to install a new radiator soon before my current develops any cracks or leaks. I know how to do the replacement, but since i have an automatic i was wondering if i need to top up the ATF after i install the new radiator. How much fluid is in the part of the radiator that cools the...
I first used Nulon when i got the car 18 months ago, then when my oil was changed the mechanic used Valvoline, so since then i have used Valvoline Engine Armour.(people say that sucks) I have noisy lifters i believe, my engine ticks, but also makes a noise when accelerating, its from the engine...
I've a question about the oil warning light on the dash; at what level does it come on? I was filling the oil the other day and I accidently drove the car with low oil before I realised it, i.e.: the oil was slightly less than half way between the high and low marks on the stick. But there...
I have been given a set of headers and the pipe with the flex joins in it, off a TJ Magna vrx, Will these fit on a KL Verada GTVi, as in a straight swap over with original manifild.?.Also been given tow bar of a TJ Magna ex, will this fit my car or fail on the exhaust? Thanks
I need to change my water pump. Noticed it was leaking, I was having a look online and I found https://www.onlineautoparts.com.au/products/ZPN-16691 however you can also get it without the housing? What is the norm when doing the pump do you usually change the housing?

Hello. i can't believe i cant work this out but i am stumped. I got the shell open Ok and can see the naughty CR2032 battery staring at me. it is held in place by 3 clasps. The ones at 1 o clock and 11 o clock seem to be fixed and dont want to be flexed at all. I suspect the large clasp at 6 o...
Hi all I need to replace one of the two fuses in the little yellow cage. TW VRX. Icant seem to budge either the cage or the black plastic slider clips - Can someone tell me what I should be levering on and are there any release clips I should be mindful of?
Question is, I've got access to a written off TL VR-X and am considering putting the body kit on my TW LS AWD Everything should bolt on OK, but i can't find any wiring for the shark eye spotlights. Does anyone know if the wiring is there for the spotlights? The front bumper needs to be...
Not sure if this is a thing, but would the front end of a 380 VRX fit onto the front of a tl? surely it wouldn't be a straight up swap, but with a little fab work it should be possible no? Has anyone attempted it before? Cheers!
I need to get to the back of the radio in my TW. I have the manual Section 52A, and it says to take out the floor console first if you need to remove the Instrument panel. Problem is I just cant get to first base with removal of the cup-holder assy. i believe if I get this out I will be able to...
Hello, I discovered that my Gregorys manual only shows you how to remove and install the manual transmission and not how to pull it apart. I have already removed/replaced when changing the clutch. Are there any manuals hard or soft copies on pulling one apart? Cheers Peter
Yeah :S Last night i snapped one of my front right wheel studs when removing a wheel. The nut became cross-threaded and wouldn't move, so i used my foot and it snapped right off. How much should i expect to pay to get it replaced? And will they have to replace all 5 of them? Cheers.
