no i leave it in auto, i dont touch the recirculate button. I will get it looked at soon. I bought the new HVAC control and assembly because who ever owned the car before hadn stuffed up the rotating knob for the fan and it wouldnt turn nicely, so i bought a spare but havent had a chance to do...

Ok so just an update to the problem. I am abit old school and switch the AC off before switching off the fan, to let the gases etc clear the lines. I pressed the snow flake button to switch the AC off before I pulled into the driveway, I let the system run as I got the kids out and I noticed...

Ok thanks, will do. Anyone particular in Adelaide worth seeing or is my AC Delco Holden Service centre the best place to go?

Might sound abit weird but when I am braking and I get to a certain brake point (between 20-30km/h slowing down before coming to a complete stop) I can hear my fan cut out for a split sec (like it has a hiccup), only to come back on but then the AC doesnt blow cold air, its just warm. When I...

are there links etc as the where to buy these?

yes local wreckers. Havent fitted them yet as have to get new rotors which dont seem cheap

havent bitten the bullet yet as it seems I have a lot of questions that I want answers to but recently found out that if you don't want CarPlay to automatically start then there's a setting to turn off auto-connect. If you wanted to listen to the radio, you could still listen to the factory...

yes I paid $200 for front and rear V8 Caliper brackets so I can upgrade my V6 ones on the Calais

I've been doing some research and looking around for the different options for apple car play and i have come across this unit. Guy is selling it on ebay and Facebook for $599. Its wireless apple car play, has a Holden logo icon which i guess you touch on the apple car play which takes you back...

i always thought it was the module in the drivers door lock playing up and not sending signal to the other module to say door open, lock steering

hard to come by, might still be able to get them from HSPO, they cost about $440 a few years ago. Have them in my redline as it doesnt have heated seats

yes having this issue with Nova 91.9 in Adelaide

so has anyone actually done a speaker upgrade on a non BOSE system in a VF2? In particular a sportwagon? like what speakers, what amp, how you connected it to VF2 mylink, where did you put the amp? Otherwise I might just have to go to a wreckers and get a BOSE systems and muck around with the...

I am wanting to upgrade my speakers in my Calais V Sportwagon. They are woeful and its crap the Calais V Sportwagon missed out on the bose that I have in my redline sedan, because they couldnt develop a system to suit the sportwagon. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to go about...

where in adelaide was this?

not to side track off topic, but how did you do the extra horn? i have the horns ready to go and one spare loom but havent done it yet to any of my VF2's

so i saw the pics, they had hacked at the front of the wheel liner on the drivers front wheel, made a mess of it. There is a spare connector that just sits there not being used, so unless this is something to be or concern.

I saw on one of the FB groups the other day, a guy had his redline stolen, chased them, lost them but then some how managed to find/recover the car. He posted a picture and said his drivers wheel liner had all be hacked so they could access the loom on the other side of the wheel liner, near...

back in VS VT Days you could option the 185i and 195i HSV engines in your SS, the same should of been for the final special editions, option to add GTS engine etc etc

Warning long post: looking for advice: So I am looking for a VT SS with the Aussie 5L not fussed if its auto or man but it needs to be in reasonable condition and must be original, not modified. I went and inspected one last week, 1999 model (so must be towards the end of the Aussies 5L...

thats very sad to hear, i'm sorry. Hopefully you can salvage some parts off it and transfer to a new sportwagon? so what was th epoint in stealing it? seems alot jus to take a car for a joy ride

i dont, but if they follow you in the shopping centre as was suggested in the OP to get a signal from your key fob, i wanted to know if anyone had any sucess with those pouches you put your key in which jams the signal, as thinking might do that as another safety pre caution

any updates on the missing sportwagons? any got one of those faraday or RFID pouches to put your key in, to stop any signals?

someone also posted about their blue VF2 SS Sportwagon getting stolen at a hospital at Clayton yesterday as well. Bit suss........

thery are the main hub or distributor for all holden parts to other holden dealers in adelaide, so have the most amount of stuff in stock and if not then they order from HSPO. I note recently alot of stuff i have ordered has come from HSPO with a note on the invoice that the item cannot be...

these are my go to guys, but that being said i have bought some stuff off ebay from interstate sellers

its hit and miss sometimes. at times you get a better deal through ebay with the ebay plus discount and free shipping, or you buy the parts through the holden dealer which has an ebay store and thier price is sometimes cheaper than trade plus the ebay plus discount and free pick up and BAM...

Looks similar to my Calais V.

this all sounds very bizzare and strange, I hate to say it but I think your dealer has no clue. In th emylink you can go to softwar eversion son the screen and see which one you have loaded. there is a thread about updating mylink software and that will list the latest version you should have...

shouldnt need the screen replaced, you either get it reflashed with latest software or do a force reset as Anthony mentioned above. Silly question but is your battery, ok? this has caused issues in the past when batteries start to die and on their way out. You be surprised how much tech there...

this is what you need, just make sure its for the right type of body sedan/wagon/ute/LWB and make sure has correct fitting flange as VF1 is different to VF2 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/325768919842?hash=item4bd9573b22:g:BBsAAOSwmo5iguPm

yes these no good, way too much drone. I had them all for about 1 week. what you need is marriage savers, i think its straight pipes with hotdogs either side, have a look at rapid exhausts, I think its called. Thats where I got mine from.

ok thanks, i'll try take covers off and inspect what the issue is and see if i can still buy the part new from spare parts

Thanks. Is this accessible from the front removing the lower plenum chamber plastic cover?

Is that on the knob that the arm pushes onto or is there somewhere else I need to be looking?

There seems to be abit of play in the drivers arm, my other VF have some play as well but not as much as the Sportwagon.

MY16 Sportwagon my drivers arm has decided to park itself in different positions and not always the same spot as my two other VF, it’s kinda annoying. I have taken off wiper arm and repositioned but that hasn’t seem to have worked. It almost seems when traveling at high speed say 80km/h and...

ok thanks. My drivers calais door is damaged from previous owner and i cant fix the scratches and scuffs. I thought about buying a SV6 door trim (as they are only still available from Holden) and then swapping all my bits over, but then i saw it all plastic welded and thought how will i go about...

Can I ask did you replace the whole door trim or just that section? I looked at the back of my door trim and they seem to be sonic welded in and cant be removed?

My Calais V in Slipstream Blue. According to the person at Holden Customer Care only 1 of 90 made in this colour in Calais V spec for VF2. I love it. Just wish it has Bose, better brakes and sunroof.
