You would say or you have actually fitted a tyre that wide on one?

Bump!!!!........

Sounds like a slipping gearbox, take it to a gearbox specialist to have a look at it.

Still have both if your interested.

Quit November 2008, haven't had one since, good luck all who try! Went cold turkey too, quitting smoking was a cake walk compared to some things in life.

Hills area, near parramatta

****Sold pls close****

Before you start the car, put the ignition on just before you turn it over and listen to hear if the pump starts up, you might need to put a window down or get someone else to do it and listen near the fuel tank. If thats the sound and its on fairly loud while driving, then you might be up for...

Yep VT-VX as per the link, cheers....

See what kind of box I can find for it, its pretty large, so I would imagine postage would be decent, but it could always be couried as well. whathappend what is your postcode ?

Common mis nomer regarding the early vt 5.7ltr ls1's. all of the ones with piston slap have been fixed as you would be extremely lucky to find with with below 30,000km where the issues arose around. In anycase go the v8, you will love the sound and power :beer chug:

Rear main seal leaks, leaks from the heads, gearbox leaks....list goes on, mainly the same issues with most commodores =)

Weekly? Get the **** out of dodge Come on, how are we suppose to take your seriously when you exagerate like this!!

Lol, the total work might cost $500-600 including gaskets and labour, but no way $1000 just for the gaskets, they are the cheapest part of the whole debacle. If the car is in good condition other then the engine its a good deal, but after the work you will put into it will it be worth a...

Presumably it would be a similiar setup to the power windows, one of the arms could have possibly failed and collapsed or one of the arms fallen off a rail. You might need to pull off the opposite doors trim to see the correct positioning or you may be up for a new mechanism. Although I...

Sent you a p/m

Reminds me of this lookout that is up above Emu Plains, there is soooo many cars that were at the bottom of this cliff. Somewhere around here >>> I think its a stop somewhere along mitchells pass, havent been there in agesss tho. emu plains - Google Maps

lol, i dont think he would find anything searching for modual. Try Module. Piece of piss changing the module over, biggest effort would be some of the screws which are a touch awkward to get at, but other then that its fairly straight forward. Had the same problem with mine some time ago...

Unless you are planning on buying one of the later 97+ models (which fetch a pretty penny) I wouldnt bother, most are quite old and are like buying a vr commodore(ok not as crap, but still just as old) electronics failing, suspension worn, high kms on the engine etc.

I agree with what Greenfoam has said, mine failed in my old VR, worst sound ever once the rubber had rotted away on the balancer. Its not the most expensive fix, but ideally you need a hoist to get the nut off the front of it.

Just what I have read on the news websites, that link provides some information, but typically nothing decent.

Well considering that lady who killed someone for the second time only got a suspended jail sentence and 18 months disqualification, this guy should be sweet with maybe 6months licence suspension? 'Incompetent' woman caused two fatal crashes at same spot | National Breaking News |...

You could probably easily get a 100hp nos kit for around $1000, that will liven things up :beer chug:

Pretty much every otr for vt-vy needs some sort of modification to the radiator cover and the plastic that is on top of the radiator core.

just lol, seriously.

From what my VT has, it comes on when the level drops in the reservoir bottle. There is a sensor in the base of it. You could assume this is carried on until the VZ's when they did away with the reservoir. *edit* Just to lead on from this, if you have noticed a drop in your levels, check...

lol, man it must have been on there a looong time to get to such bad condtion that it would fail like that. Either that or your aircon pulley seized and some how caught it and it frayed. Either way just buy a newone, easy as to refit.

lol at thread, I often wonder does anyone own a v8 on this forum....

Would be wondering about this as well, they seem cheap enough, but everyone seems to think any of the OTR's below $500 are ****.

Yeah thats the same article I just read, although I figured as the above post, the majority of stolen cars have decent alarms/security features, its just that they were towed away which you cant stop.

Hi, I have a vt exec, I was wondering, what if anything in regards to an alarm or a immobiliser they came with standard ? Cheers

Really, you reckon its the tyres ? Its quite an annoying sound Maybe ill try rotating them, hope that might make a difference. Be a waste to change the tyres, they are brand new, damn Falkens ! lol

Hey, Just wondering if anyone has the same weird sound my car makes at low speed. Basically in car parks and places where the sound can bounce off, at low speed it sounds like a whooshing noise coming from the front wheels. Would this be the rotors or from the actual wheel design...

Killed a few animals over the years. -Bird flew into my windscreen -Hit a kangaroo on old pac, smashed the passenger light in/guard bent then he went under the tyre and out the back, was fur all over the place. -Use to regulary kill rabbits coming home from an ex-gf's place out in Kellyville...
