What Did You Do To Your Car Today?

[OZYWALKER]

Found this bolt next to the ute, where it gets parked.

Looks similar to the intake manifold bolts but none are missing.

Any ideas?

Zorst manifold

[OZYWALKER]

Nope, all there. Not from the heat shield either.

I've had diff bolts fall out...

[k31th]

nothing to worry about if it's not a hot side bolt - the turbo's still flowing, that's all that matters!

[OZYWALKER]

True.

But the turbos farked. Bearings sound shot. So it's parked waiting for GTX money.

Spent a couple of hours today with the G6ET.

Full wash, dry, clay bar/detail/polish and wax. Came up an absolute treat! Unfortunately, I have the worst phone known to man, so these pictures don't do the finish any justice... (2nd pic is a pure reflection)

Can't recommend a clay bar/polish/wax enough. Feels like glass and looks like a mirror

Nice, mine is silhouette too. What products did you use?

[NVT]

Hey RB,

I washed the car down at the local car-wash - High pressure soap/rinse, wash, rinse, spot free rinse, 100+Kmp/h = nice and clean (And dry)

I bought a Mothers clay bar kit ($29.90 on sale at repco and supercheap until early next week) - 2 clay bars, microfibre cloth and a detailing/lubricating spray which doubles as a polish - 'For use between washing and waxing' so it kills 2 birds with one stone. Next big clean, I'll polish with my Meguiers dark-colour vehicle, wet look crystal polish before the wax

Then I used some liquid wax I had lying around, can't remember brand now sorry, but it came up really well. Would recommend a liquid wax - really convenient and easy to use.

The clay bar makes the paint look like a mirror and literally feel like glass. Amazing how crap the finish was before I used it... In short, Good wash, dry, clay bar, polish and wax - I'm a big fan of Mother's and Mcguiers gear so you can't go wrong

We should have a forum detailing day in the future - Always up for a show-car clean vehicle.

Cheers,

Dan
