Hello from Australia

[spine]

Hello all,

Just picked up a 2008 RA with all the extras we can get here in Australia. MMCS,Rear Camera, Sunroof. I am very happy with the car and have picked up some good tips from this site. I have been looking for a service manual though, can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Welcome aboard Spine, have a quick question don't you mean 2009 RA?

mine was delivered november 2008, not sure if Australia had a shipment before the States?

Nov 2008 means it's a 2009 model year. Mine rolled off the assembly line in Nov 2010 and it's a 2011 model. At least here in the US, some manufacturers will release the next model year halfway through the current year. For example... Ford might offer the 2012 model of one of their cars in June or July of 2011.

To my knowledge, there was no 2008 Ralliart, only 2009-2012.

Spine is right, Australia gets theirs before any of us do.
Their intro to RA was mfg & asm in 2007 for 2008 release.
& Their variation model ES, VR, VRX, & Ralliart.

In U.S. first release Ralliart was in 2009. Im sure you could've gotten it in 2008 if you knew people that knew people in U.S.
Mine is 2009 model but mfg & asm in 2008 in Japan according to the vin numbers.
