    Diagnosing help please!

    Fuel pressure is at 58psi. So that all seems fine. MAP reading on the tool seem to be all ok from what I have read on the net, and the intake vacuum was sitting around 20 at idle - which again seems all fine from what I read on the interweb. So I doubt there are any vacuum leaks or a fuel...

    Diagnosing help please!

    Hi, My HSV has been running rough for a while, and I have been trying to track it down. I ended up getting a Mafless mail tune as I was adamant it was the MAF, but was wrong. So I replaced plugs, wires, a faulty coil, Fuel filter, coolant temp sensor, intake gasket and checked thoroughly for...

    4L60e gurus?

    Thanks mate, yea it is a VXII and your description seems spot on to me. Seems fine if I am accelerating hard, or at very slow speeds. It's kind of at the normal driving acceleration that it's most notable. So are you saying it's fairly normal? Thanks again for your guys replies, really...

    4L60e gurus?

    Hey everyone, About a year ago my Transmission shat itself in my VX Clubsport (Auto) and was rebuilt while I was away on holiday. When I picked the car up, the mechanic said that they had placed another filter on the transmission as a safety net in case there was still any metal floating...

    20 inch wheels ride quality?

    In NZ they are all crappy LOL!! So I'm hearing stay with the 19"s? So if I were to go to SL would that effect quality a lot as well? A local sales rep said that 20's would be too rough, but also said that SL Kings were too soft for our roads!! Seems i can't win here?? Thanks for the replies...

    20 inch wheels ride quality?

    Anyone running 20 inch wheels on a VX care to give me a bit of a run down on the ride quality? I live in NZ and want to lower the HSV on Super Lows with and eventually get 20inch wheels. I'm currently on 19s at the moment on FE2 suspention. It's firm but but bare-able.

    Rumbling/grinding noise around 30km

    Thanks, The Transmission shat it'self about a year ago and was rebuilt. The fluid still looks new as it's only done a few thousand kms since this happened. The noise was present before this, I just haven't driven the car for a few months. It's the last thing I need to fix the car to a state...

    Rumbling/grinding noise around 30km

    Thanks. The diff is single spinning. It's the third second hand unit I've had since the noise started so do not think it's that (This is another story). Had the alignment done after I changed the the strut mounts and whilst it was on the hoist we had a good look at the drive shaft and cvs...
