Re: RHD illegal headlights still on Delica's today
I bought my Deli in 2008 from the dealer not mentioned in the first post. At the time of purchase I asked specifically if the changes that needed to be made to make the van legal to drive here in B.C. had been done. I was told that yes, the lights and tires ect had all been looked after. I discovere...

Re: Handbrake light comes on (and off) when going over bumps...
I had the same issue, which I thought was just an overly sensitive sensor... It was actually a bad wheel cylinder in the back.
Just one more thing to look it!

Re: sunshade repair "how-to"
I just have to say thanks for the "how to" on the sunshade repair! I never would have been able to sort any of it out without reading this first! I used some steel strapping, snips, and a few sets of pliers and got most of it done......... Although it took me abut 6 hours of farting around...

Re: What is your top speed?
150 kph in the Vantasy! I cruise at 120 kph, sitting at a hair over 3000 rpm, which seems to be a bit lower than my buddys Deli. He needs nearly 3500 rpm to hit 120 kph on flat highway. I've seen just under 150 kph coming home through Idaho down a rather large hill. The Vantasy was starting to shake...

Re: Why did I have a "brake fire"?
I'd love to bring the 'ol ten speed down but its a bike bike trip. Besides, I'm so out of shape right now, don't need to drive for 24 hours to die of a heart attack when I can do it in Chilliwack! I've been to Moab in the past, I was 16 so eleven years ago now. Too young to really appreciate it. My ...

Re: Why did I have a "brake fire"?
Left caliper seized was the verdict. Not sure why it disappeared after the first day, regardless we're leaving on a two week bike trip to Virgin, Utah on sunday so it needed to be looked after. The Deli Wicki section was a big help... was a bit panicked about tracking down parts only a few days befo...

Re: Why did I have a "brake fire"?
know its pulling hard to the right when I brake. ... All the above signs point to a siezed caliper on the left side to me but I don't know much I'm no expert in this, but if the left side was seized, wouldn't the pull be towards the left? (seized should provide more braking than unseized, and there...

Re: alarm system
ICBC man told me that GPS units are legal and covered for sure. I did not realize those things do DVD's.....If they do that they may also run with an iPod??? I don't try and scam any systems over (for the most part) but I did screw myself with this one. When I filed my claim via phone I called the u...

Re: alarm system
Yeah I totally thought that also! But I guess because they have the ability to watch a DVD while driving they are now not allowed in the front. There is one Pionner model that is nearly $3000 that is legal and it uses some sort of built in system to keep it from working while driving. Gay. I will ad...

Re: alarm system
I am a goombah and did not have one yet! The plan was to spend a bit on a stereo and a bit on an alarm but I went balls out on the stereo/dvd rig and told myself I'd get the alarm soon.....And then never did! My fault. Today I had an ICBC appointment and he basically told me that they would not repl...

Re: alarm system
Argh! Too funny....Talking abut alarms and such and this morning I roll out to find my $1500 DVD/stereo setup plus the iPod that was hidden and locked inside my dash has been pilfered. Add to that the effing passenger lock having been ripped clean out of my effing passenger door. Oh well...

Re: alarm system
Sweet, thanks for the info!
So I will try and get my hands on a 2-way dealy with an imobilizer. Futureshop is run by satan himself and they only seem to have his 14 yearold minions working there so I'll not get one from those clowns...

Re: alarm system
Killer info. I need to get in gear and pick up an alarm, hope to get it soon so its rad to be a little clearer on the subject. I had no idea the whole 2-way thing existed but it makes sense for sure. 2nd noob question on this thread: Whats the deal with imobilizers? I don't know how they work but it...
