I've has this problem in the workshop before same senerio car sitting and not being used for a while. While people have a good point regarding the fuel going off you can check a simple thing which I think you will find is the problem. The problem is more apparent when the vehicle tank is under...

I'm impressed

I don't see the issue if this is the case. Sounds like you haven't had a problem because you have passed the attitude test LOL. If the brightness of the lights have not changed there isn't going to be an issue. I know everyone reading this page wants the driver behind us to see our brake lights...

The wheels you have under the hub caps are standard steel rims. The rims you are thinking of are 'Chaser rims' and are actually 1 inch wider than standard rims. Most Chaser rims are silver in colour however spraying them black with chrome dress rims is a cheap eye catching way of making the rims...

I had a bit of a laugh when I saw your post as it is typical of the cars to have his problem. I removed mine (Ripped it off) and went to Holden to get another one.......They don't stock them anymore. I did the usual and went to 'Pick and payless' and found four still intact on the dash of the...

I'm sitting tight waiting for you to finish the job.......I'm feeling a bit concerned with the replies. It sounds like your having a real **** of a time !

Gents, if the Police feel your lights are unroadworthy it comes down to attitude on the majority of occasions, well it does when I speak with people. Be careful when modifying lights (tail lights/brake lights) I'll give you a senerio. Your come to a stop and a driver runs up your 'bum'. Driver...

Graphite powder is the go. About 10 bucks from a spare parts shop. Wind the window down and puff the poweder into the channels. The window will glide with ease. Remember it will only work if you haven't got a problem with channels falling out or swelling etc. Give it a go before you pull the...

Hey guys, Had a problem with the fan and found the problem was a burnt connection onto the actual fan. The connection had melted into the fan itself. So just to make sure there was no other problems I checked the wire to the fan and I have power. I went down to Pick and payless and removed a...

JA@Z that's tops looking forward to seeing how you did everything:dance:

O.K got it repaired. I couldn't find the fault for the auto electrician did the job for $130. Problem was when I purchased the car the radio didn't work so I re wired the stereo. Problem is I wired the stereo the wrong way and it blow the lights for the instrucments every time I replaced the...

Copper grease on the corners of the pads and backing will rectify the issue, just a very small amount.

I don't want to seem negative.......but don't buy an ex police vehicle. They have been driven hard from cold start up, they have holes all over the dash from radio, cradles, warning devices, ICV...etc...etc. They have been rammed, smashed and driven hard. Look under the vehicle before you...

No issues with anyb oil conditions you place in you steering, engine and transmission. It's good for the car. I'm happy it has worked for you and you saved money. Now you can spend the money on more beer :-)

Windscreen has a dirt big crack and needs replacement. I'm allowed a windscreen per year with the insurance company i'm with. Anyone happy or unhappy with repairers in the Western Sydney area ? Wo do you recommend boys ?

No replies anyone help..............................................

If it's a standard 3 1/2 inch it should go on. Take the pipe off with the maf and put the pod on the ground. Then try and put the pod on by pushing down on the pipe and maf. That's how I put mine on last week. I tried when it was in the car and couldn't so I took it off and placed it on the ground.

G'Day boys.....the Fan speed resistor in the VS does anyone have an idea how much for new and how much for old spare part for repalement ?

Cooler lines leak on most cars after a few years. It's simple replace the short piece of hose on both lines and replace with new clamps. Transmission fluid levels need to be spot on all the time as the last thing you wish to do is go low on trans oil and damage the box when it starts slipping...

If your going to call out the NRMA and your not a member make sure you join first down at the shopping centre....because if you join when you call them out without being a member they will charge you heaps more to join on the side of the road/home. It's all about money $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$...

Funny you should say this....get your head around this boys ! NSW Holden and Ford Highway Patrol vehicles use E10 fuel ! If you try and fuel the vehicles with any other fuel the petrol cards will not except payment. How do I know this ???? You work it out:cops:

I'm down in Sydney and VDU in Silverwater re cal's all the Police vehicles for speed checks. If you contact VDU in Queensland they will have someone that does the Highway patrol car up their. If they Calibrate your speedo it comes with a certificate of calibration. best of luck.

Clubby you. ..I haven't heard that before. What do you think of a small bit of copper grease. I just don't like the idea of leaving them dry.

The crank weather it's and auto or manual are the same. Tap the bush in with the correct tool if you have one for bushes. If not gently do it with an extension bar. A bit of locktight can be rubbed on the outside of the bush for piece of mind but is not really necessary. I small dob of grease on...

I'll give it ago !

Cander24 thanks that helps alot. Ja2z I haven't ordered the stuff yet but will on pay day. Did you buy yours off ebay from the bloke in Queensland or from somewhere else...What did you pay ????. I'll wait for your reply after having a go at it when your parts come in. Best of luck send a pic...

Hi folks, Start the car drive car warms up and tempture gauge float between quarter and half depending on the weather and traffic. My problem is the next day I start the car and the temp gauge doesn't work at all and sits on cold like it's broken. Park the car walk into the shops for a...

I want to change the background on a level 2 Cluster off my VS. I was going to go from standard to white. I know how to get the unit out of the dash but is there any trick to changing the background. I'm concerned about taking off the plastic screen and are the speedo needle and temp needle/fuel...

2 Furious.......AirStrike states ....... 'YOUR FIRED'.

I say we go over to Thailand with our Army....blow the **** out of the gaol and break her out. Come back to Auz with her. Make her a Parramatta NRL cheerleader and ask Matty Johns to interview her when he is eventually re-instated by channel nine !

Athletes LOL

Good 1 Kev

If your going to start welding spanners onto rounded bolts be careful not to damage the computer....remember the insulation in that area can also be flamable. The easier way if you can try it first is I'm guessing you used a standardard socket on an extention bar to attempt to take the bellhouse...

What would have happened if it was an NRL player who stole the mat ??????????????

I've been look on ebay over the last few days for the same reasons......There is the chrome lights......the lights with the black background....... or completely clear lights which I think look crap. The price range appears to be $180 to $200......If anyone know anywhere else they are cheaper...

Hi guys, I want to change the colour of my Cluster face from standard to white on my VS. The temp control and transmission selector are easy enough. I've read some posts on removing the dash but once out is there a trick to changing the face. My concerns are how do I open the unit up. Is...

The plain car looks neat. No body kits, spoiler....just straight and simple' lowered with a nice set of rims. . One of the main problems I see with the spoiler is: 1. The clear peels off from them and they look cheap. 2. It makes the rear of the car look higher than normal. What...

Heard rumors that superlow 'King's are a hard ride compared to the Lovell's.....haven't experienced a ride on either springs....like you I am waiting for some advise (what does everyone else think). Went down to Autobarn yesterday and got a 3.5 inch pod filter, disconnected the original filter...

If your door is opening with a 'cracking' noise it's because the pins are worn. While you have the pins out replace them. After a few years expecially the drivers side door pin wears and creates a gap of about 0.5mm on either side of the pin. Some people lube the doors and use graphite power...

yeah, the A/C light comes on when pushed in only when the fan is positioned on fan speed 1, 2 etc..... if you turn the fan speed off and the A/C light is on, the A/C light turns off. I sat in the car and pushed the A/C button to the on position.....waited and turned the fan speed to position 1...
