Hey Guys,
I won't bore you with all my dramas but you will get the jist of it
from my questions:
1. Where can I get the square highbeams (the whole unit)? Apparently
the VW scirro (spelin?) has the same? Can you still get them for a
reasonable price from VW or Hella or aftermarket?
2. Cruising along at 100kmh for an hour or so, then put in the clutch
and idle the engine and the oil light / buzzer comes on. Also driving
up Dorrigo mountain when left in 3rd or 4th on a steep bit the oil
light comes on, change down and it stops. Any ideas? Have just
installed rev guage and dash from america, don't know if that's
something to do with this. Has plenty of fresh oil and oil filter.
3. The alternator light returned halfway up the highway. This is
frustrating as you know I have been through the whole commodore
alternator saga and I thought this was fixed when I scored and
installed a rather new reconditioned (with uprated windings) commodore
alternator I scored off a buddy. Before taking this alternator back
to the auto electrician who worked it, any ideas why I'm going through
so many alternators??! I haven't even installed a gigantic stereo
yet... :(
But apart from that, my coffs trip has been great and the syncro is
going strong. Hope all who attended had fun at the vw nationals and I
may be seeing some of you at Narooma it seems, will confirm closer to
the date.
Have fun, thanks as always for all the help,
Sam
