I heard all the same negatives in regards to the authorities when I put 6 driving lights on the roof rack. They've been on for over a year and I havent been pulled up yet driving Vic, Nsw and Qld.

Yes it is illegal to have them up there, do it anyway.

S.A is a bit different.They are targeting everything at the moment and it can get very expensive.
I have had a number of neighbours who have been pinged for a wide range of things including driving lights.

So the drivers controller just has an internal battery ? Does it have a backlight for night viewing ? If any shock airline leaks does the controller alert you or do you just hear the compressor cycling ? The whole install method sounds heaps cleaner and simpler than the old way.

its in the mail , comes with free cat fur

Macca , a remote rear mount turbo uses an electric independant oil pump to supply its feed under pressure.
and the air intake has to be better quality than the flimsy flexible duct that some installers use.

Don't you mean electric scavenge pump, you use engine oil pressure to supply but due to the low mount it requires a scavenge pump to return the oil to the sump, otherwise it will just build up oil pressure and end up blowing pass the turbo seals.

I will get the filter and attempt to change it myself over the weekends and get some pics up so you guys know what im talking about.

Have always loved mitsubishi and own a evo this was for my parents as its easier for them to get in and out rather than a traditional sedan.

It drove fine for the test drive i dont no why it all went down hill from there.

Previous owner is acting all dumb about it as well, so want to tell him off but the deal has been done so i cant and its my fault as well should of got someone to look at it that knows diesels.

:(:(:(:(

If i get to the stage of fixing it, how is that the suplhur content measured or verified from the pump?

Or is that like an additive you can add? That makes my decision buying the car even worst, its like the longer i own it for the more money will be lost in fixing it :(

And with these new "My Ride" setups, does each shock still just get a single airline and no electrical wires same as the old setup ? Is the 'wireless' part just between the driver controls and the compressor manifold with the airlines coming off it ? So the driver controls just connect to 12V, the compressor part just connects to 12V and all the communication between them is then wireless ?[/quote]
correct each shock has an airline. the wireless refers to the remote handheld on which you can adjust the settings.

the wireless controller is not connected to the vehicle, only the compressor and control module are hardwired.
