Snapped a few pictures for you guys when i visited this ex railway station in Dusseldorf and its car display, many are for sale. These were quickly taken on an old iphone and trying to cut people out of the picture so no whinges about picture quality.

Went to buy some Castro 5w30 from Repco who has it for $55 a bottle. Thought I might as well get an oil filter too. $50 for a Ryco filter. A cheap paper cartridge filter. $50. FCP Euro. $5usd and it comes with all the new seals of which the Ryco did not. Actually the whole oil change kit from FCP is only $60usd. So f**k Repco. I will order it from FCP. I'm done with buying sh*t from Supercheap, Repco and the like. It's not even worth it for the small cheap stuff.

Yup, I just ordered a sh*t tonne of hengst filters (the best) from fcpeuro for the equivalent of about $10nzd each including shipping. The Ryco ones are rubbish and more than three times the price.

Splooge Also, what the heck is a "CIA LUX"?

Going legit... after ~15 years of being a rebel.

Impromptu family lunch at Wendy's Greenlane...

and then it couldn't find a gear. Booked into Auto38 on Tuesday. In the mean time I scanned it myself, ISTA-D came up with codes 31-EGS: Symptom gear monitoring, 32 -EGS: Symptom gear monitoring 1, 35 -EGS: Symptom gear monitoring 3, 3B EGS: Stall speed and 8- IKE: EGS signal line disturbed. Cleared them, drove it...shifted fine for about 3 mins and then started slipping again in 3rd or 4th and then went back into limp mode, same codes. I've been googling but looks like some serious multimetering is the next step. I'll leave that up to Jon.
