hey... my car is giving me grief! i had trouble a while a go with a wire shorting out (i think it was the oil wire?) i took it to an aut elec but he couldn't fix it. for some reason my distance til empty always says i have 500+ kms till empty... when i roughly have 40-80kms till empty the fuel gauge reads full but until then it stays on empty? the radio works but cant change the station unless i dissconnect the battery 1st then put the car on accessories, then i can change station, play cd etc... but when i start the car it doesnt allow me to do anything again?? and a week or so ago my remote locking stopped working... the remote light still flashes as if its doing something but the doors don't lock??? any ideas??? its an au 2 2001 xr6 ute |

are you using the standard cd player? they are known to be pretty ********(dont play cds after a few years etc.) but i havnt heard of one not working... considered getting a aftermarket one? door locks breaking is also fairly common... (door locks can be changed fairly easily, do a search) if im right changing the dash wont fix a think.... Cheers Cam
