love the vids mate, watched a lot of your crossing Australia series good to see your still repping the cannon and giving it a well deserved flogging. i really wanted that rear bar but heard a few people saying they could never get the Rear side assist shit working. did yours need to be recalibrated? Cheers John
Hey John, thanks for watching mate. Our rear bar is all good now. We had some issues with reverse sensors falling out. But I sorted that. The rear side radar was slightly out but I just bent the brackets a tiny bit so they point correctly. I believe this has been sorted in the newest ones. Definitely didn't need recalibration or anything. Mine has been trouble free for ages now 😀
Thats bloody awesome to hear mate! i was going to purchase one of them but just got a brand new towbar off marketplace for $150. just watched your wiring vid will order a harness this week and follow that :) thanks for the content mate keep it up!
@SIMUVERSEAU awesome!!! Best wiring kits are the plug and play with the Reed switch. The one i wired was a basic kit. Only difference is one will turn off the rear radar and one won't and will cause fault lights. But both still work :) Cheers mate
This is why I'll never sell my gq ,no sensors and the only electronics are in the cd player 😂😂...and after all these years of abuse i think there's less rust on the undercarriage than yours. Great video 👍👍👍
@ just an update on mine totally stock in suburban Melbourne never been off road, done 40,000km now , one front shock seeping oil and I have found three small spots of rust bubbles on the roof.
@@tonxbezzina7015mine died with 1500 on the clock. Faulty fuel pump. Supposedly a very common issue, the service from the dealer and gwm was more than decent. Had a replacement car and all.
My wife’s old Suzuki Kiswahili used to throw codes all the time, even when the battery and alternator was tested and found to be in spec. Turned out low voltage to the ECU changed battery and cleaned all terminals never had an issue since
I love it 😂😂😂😂 Probably that override chip 😂😂😂 You keep me coming back, smashing the like button 😂 It's like watching Chris Fix but Aussie haha Legend 🤙🏼
So far 75,000 zero problems with mine but great to know about a "did you turn it off and on again?" Fix. You need to treat these modern cars more like a computer. Most car companies will route wiring through other modules so if something goes it gave give false errors on other systems.
Looks like the ECU reading low battery voltage due to the hr on the negative terminal throwing most / all senses out - equivalent to a faulty battery - doesn’t take much if the battery voltage is below 12.4v - way to many electronics in vehicles today - most owners would have it trucked to the dealer.

@installer1571 yeah mate that's my bad. I take the ute on beaches all the time and drive through salt water and then never wash it haha. Definitely recommend washing the sand off your car after the beach haha oops
@TheMoonie1961 no I didn't. I don't really like them. It's only speeding up the throttle signal. Doesn't actually do anything to the lag. Still just bad... just my opinion. Definitely mats a small difference to response time.. I just can't justify it. (I've driven many with controllers in them)
@confuzsays7196 yeah I did. It was missing a few clips which I noticed just after I put it up so hard to go and edit all over again haha ahhhh Sorry about that 🍻

Being a mechanic is so useful. Must have saved you thousands by diagnosing and fixing your own stuff.

To be fair to the GWM all the issues are due to the aftermarket mods. I’m impressed.
@tonxbezzina7015 So true!! Most issues I've had is crap to do with shit I've fitted to it. But I can't help myself. I love modifying, haha

Well done all round! Out of interest, any reason you've not fitted mudflaps?
@@AdsMitchell ummmm just because I like how it looks.... I guess. Just haven't seen the need for em...

I added them to mine, looks more complete now. I also have lift and 32s with black wheels which helps.

How many km did the GWM ute do now?
@D30N64 hey mate
Around 65k now 😀
How many ks on the great white rocket now😮
@mortaygo1 hey mate :) around 65k kms now not doing too much driving these days
Gotta go round aust again
Mine has clicked 100oookm. Zero issues- but it certainly not done as much work as yours
It looks like you're getting a bit. Of surface rust on the Chassis Is there a lot for a car of that age?
@installer1571 yeah mate that's my bad. I take the ute on beaches all the time and drive through salt water and then never wash it haha.
Definitely recommend washing the sand off your car after the beach haha oops
Nice fix! Did you ever try a throttle controller for the lag when pulling away, before getting a tune?
@TheMoonie1961 no I didn't. I don't really like them. It's only speeding up the throttle signal. Doesn't actually do anything to the lag. Still just bad... just my opinion. Definitely mats a small difference to response time.. I just can't justify it.
(I've driven many with controllers in them)
That is not how they work.
What’s torque on demand over ride
@miakahleadem928 it's a unit from Savage Tech that overrides the 4x4 system on the Cannon. So I can activate the 4x4 system completely on my own
U need to do a QA video again mate
@@Relaxingkiwi yeah you think so? What kinda things do you think we should touch base on?

Quite alot of underside corrosion there
