    Oxygen Sensor Resistance

    Does anyone know if an oxygen sensor can be checked with a circuit tester. Tried checking resistance between the two pins on the plug but get no reading. Should I be getting some sort of reading by doing this and if so what are the allowable limits for a properly functioning sensor? Thanks.

    Reading my error code

    Didn't get a code 12 this time. Have got one every other time I have checked. The VX uses a 4 digit code. For example code twelve is displayed as: 10 flashes 10 flashes 1 flash 2 flashes So that would make the code 0113 but can't find any reference to it. The car is running really...

    Have some problems with my VX running really rough. Checked the fault code but not sure how to read it properly. I got 10 flashes, then 1, then 1, then 3. Can anyone tell me what the code is? Thanks.

    are 2.5 and 3 inch exhaust over?

    The output of the exhaust will vary depending on brand and how it is set up.

    Can't delete file :(

    Start XP in safe mode and browse to the file. Display the properties of the file and check that all the file permissions in the security tab are selected for you. Restart and try to delete again.

    avam

    Not much point replacing the gaskets if the head did need to be machined. Would have been worth checking when replacing.

    avam

    Did you clean or replace the Idle Air Control?

    avam

    Did you have reason to believe the head gasket was buggered other than an overheating problem?

    Cool thanks guys.

    Oil in Coolant Reserve

    The auto trans was my first concern but there is no sign of water in the trans oil. System was washed thoroughly inluding heater core and thermostat was changed. Coolant reserve bottle was removed from vehichle and cleaned out too.

    Removing Knock Sensors on a VX V6

    To flush the block completely it is recommended that the knock sensors be removed to allow all the old coolant to be flushed out.

    Oil in Coolant Reserve

    It's a V6 and I changed the coolant about 6000km ago. The cooling system including heater core was flushed out really well and I didn't put the pellets in.

    Oil in Coolant Reserve

    I appear to have a brown oily substance in my coolant reserve. I only notice it on the coolant dipstick as just a thin film. There is no sign of emulsified oil on either the coolant or engine oil dipsticks or in the engine oil cap. No loss of oil or coolant either. There is no sign of oil in the...

    VT V6 s1 & s2 motors

    vx calais series 2 standard

    The only real problem you may find with it being a series 1 is the rear camber problem that was revised on the series 2. It can cause your rear tyres to wear out quicker on the insides. You could always tell the dealer that you wanted a series 2 for that reason and see if you can get them to...

    Lowering my VT questions...

    You don't need to if you are only going to low springs but I would recommend it if you can afford to. If they are the stock shocks then chances are they are fairly close to being buggered.

    FE2 Suspention kit question

    Your shocks could be stuffed. Did holden check them?
  35. TigerVX

    FE2 Suspention kit question

    17 inch wheels will give a rougher ride than 15 inch wheels so changing to standard suspension will help a bit but unless you change back to 15's then the ride won't be quite like stock.

    advice wanted

    Check with the servos any thefts of fuel around that time. The assholes that steal cars aren't the type to worry about paying for fuel to drive them around. Good luck mate.

    Car accidents

    When an insurance company is deciding if a car is going to be a write off they don't just consider the cost of repairs. They also take into account how much they could get for the parts of the car that are still ok. So If you have a car insured for $20,000 and you do $16,000 of damage and they...

    quickest vl in aus

    Did this "Drag Car" still have a RB30T engine or something else? Cause Street Commodores issue 117 featured a VL drag car running 7.97 @ 171mph. Modified in just about every way though including a 505ci Chev Big Block so it's hardly a VL now but still quite an impressive time.

    cheapest place to buy a genuine monaro bonnet

    If an insurance company can find ANY way of getting out of paying a claim they will. If you car is not "Road Worthy" they will just say your car should not have been on the road and therefor they won't pay up.
