What is wrong with it and where were you?

[Roosim]

Was about 150 k south of Birdsville (heading to the Mungerannie pub) and it just stopped - like we had run out of fuel. Managed to get it restarted a few times and got within 25 k of the pub and could not get any further so got towed by a mate (toyota !!!!) to the pub. Lots of opinions re the problem but had to get the RAA to recover the car and trailer.
Best advise I can give is get premium cover from these guys. So they took the car to Copley and they spent 1/2 day trying to get it going but no joy so it got taken back to a shop in Lonsdale (south of Adelaide).
Had to replace the fuel pump, the high pressure one, expensive one. They also reckon the rail should be replaced and the injectors could do with help as well. Always seem to having problems so I have traded it on a new car.
BUT it is still very hard to start so I hope they don't check trade-ins too much on the handover.

Cookies have a good reputation in Copley but anything to do with injector pumps these days and that's the response you will get .
They tried to fix mine from leaking and only charged $60 but gave me the option of just keep going or get it replaced so I chose to keep going which was fine being direct injection and where it was leaking from we did about 3000ks like that but cut the trip short a week early .

The new car's not perfect either?

Hearing on tonight's news that the air bag fiasco is possibly not over. To be honest I hope its just media hype and we don't have to do it again.

It's not over...... The missus recently had her passenger airbag changed for the second time. So a possibly faulty item, changed first time to another possibly faulty item. Let's hope the 3rd one isn't possibly faulty.

And another reason why I still drive a GQ....... No effkin airbags

Sorry - misleading. I don't pickup the new (brand new) car until tomorrow - hopefully they don't check the patrol too much.....

Damn Damn Damn

Just found out I've got pneumonia, I don't have time for this. I'm normally pretty bulletproof, but really thought I was going to drop of the perch last night. I was shaking so much that my teeth chattering woke my wife. So been an afternoon of doctors, blood tests and X-rays.
Supposed to be in hospital but I need to stick it out another night as I'm a carer for my wife. Did promise them I'd call an ambulance if I deteriorated.
Came on so quick I can't believe it.
Rant over, unless I end up in hospital.
