VX Clubby with LS1 has been giving my Mrs all kinds of grief.One day( a couple of years back) it refused to start and the auto elec told her that it was the factory immobiliser and it needed to be sorted by the dealership.Car was booked in and the immobiliser was apparently "disconnected" or "removed"....details are sketchy...
Since that day,the lights(including dash,headlamps and tail lights) all pulse when they are on....Its had a few alternators thrown at it by various mechanics in the hope that would solve it....NO DICE....
It will do it at idle right through the rev range,and the pulse doesnt seem to change much...
Every few weeks it refuses to start, sometimes you wait a minute,sometimes its hours but it will start again....sometime....this is extremely inconvenient, especially for a woman...
Today the windscreen washer failed to work and on removing the fuse cover inside,the whole fuse area was found to be extremely hot!!!
This is an ongoing pain in the butt...has anyone been down this road,or have any advice/suggestions (apart from sell it)
