Thanks for the reply. I hav already taken off the rear trims as well as the rear latch cover and I can see everything is working fine. The motor doesn't seem to be strong enough to move the latch...
Do you have a picture of the rear latch you are referring to? I take it you are also referring to DC5 and not DC2?? There's no manual boot release cable or anything (all electronic). I can't seem to...
I have a problem with my 2002 DC5R where the rear boot actuator no longer seems to work. When I press the lock/unlock button on my alarm, you can hear the boot actuator make a noise, but it doesn't...
Would love to come to the cruise but unfortunately already made plans for this Sunday. I've been looking on youtube vids and alot of people have 70mm, but it seems excessively loud to me...
I'm looking to get a Skunk 2 exhaust from the states and they have a 60mm version as well as a 70mm version. I know the 70mm version will have more potential for power gains, but there is the issue...
Reviving an old thread...I've flushed my clutch fluid twice already but the fluid keeps getting contaminated and discolouring with some cloudy green stuff. ALso when this happens, my clutch pedal...
OK I finally fixed the problem although I don't even know what I did to fix it. I just took out the fan switch again and gave it a real good clean (there seemed to be some sort of calcium buildup on...
Yea I know that..it turns on when it detects temps of 91-95 degrees celcius. But my question is how long does it take for the coolant to reach those temps under normal idling and air temps we are...
Stating how mank kms you're getting on a full tank isn't really accurate..what exactly do you mean "a full tank"? Until the light comes on or are you guys driving till the engine dies : P
I'm...
I took the radiator fan switch out today and tested it and it was actually working fine. I boiled some water, suspended the probe above it and when the water was reaching its boiling point, the...
Found out today that I have a dead fan switch. While I'm waiting to get the part in, is it ok to just short out the fan switch connector so that the radiator fan is on 100% of the time?
Also when...
Anyone? This looks like the fuel filter, but I want to be sure otherwise I'm returning this fuel filter thats apparently suitable for the DC5R. I referred to the service manual, but it only mentions...
Don't know about the foglights causing any air restrictions to the Injen CAI, but I wouldn't say so. I can't comment on the foglights blocking air to the brakes though. I didn't even know they...
Hi guys, just reporting back to let you know cleaning out the IACV did the trick and now that weird idling problem has gone away. I might add as well that when you take out the electronic part of the...
I installed a new battery because in fact mine did die. I also completely flushed out my clutch fluid as it was green and had weird bits in there (I don't think the previous owner has ever replaced...
I went to Autobarn and Repco today to find out how much their fuel filters are and it turns out its about 1/3 the price of the original. However, its not an in-tank filter which confuses me..Does the...
The clutch fluid on my car looks a little strange and discoloured. I was wondering if anyone knows how to flush/bleed the clutch fluid? Theres no mention of this on the service manual? Is there a...

Well when I took delivery of it, the battery was dead after sitting on the car transport tray for 5 days and needed a jump start. Not sure if that may have done anything..I'll see what happens to the...
Thanks guys. Much appreciated. I had a look under my seat and it looks like its pretty straight forward (just remove the screws to access the fuel tank) and I'm all good. Will look into it.
$120 for...
Looking to change my fuel filter in my DC5R since its done over 80,000kms. I looked at the service manual I downloaded and it looks doable, from a DIY perspective but was wondering if anyone else has...
