    Using to much petrol

    I take it you have replaced the 02 sensors? Old means they are worn and because you are not seeing codes does not mean that they are working properly.

    Vr v6 not changing gear

    Check your connections to the trans and make sure you have right trans for your VR. Code list here Just Commodores - For All Your Holden Commodore Needs

    What would you pay for my 1995 VS?

    It only got one bidder, but sadly they think it is funny to do a fake bid. Does this fool think I cannot track them down?

    vs starter issue?

    Mine was like that. Which turned out to be the connection on the starter was bad and could not be fixed so I got another starter motor.

    Knock sensors?

    What would you pay for my 1995 VS?

    They came off another car that I sold, but I would take them off if I had the room to store them. The car can look like **** and still pass rego providing it was roadworthy lol I try my best to take care of my cars, The dents were not done by me :) I am only selling it because of fuel...

    What would you pay for my 1995 VS?

    I am not selling here. I am just wondering what it could fetch on eBay? I was offered $500 but I think it is a bit low. Holden VS Commodore Acclaim 1995 4D Sedan 4 SP Automatic | eBay

    VS V6 high idle.

    Better to compare it with another VS. Have you cleaned the MAF yet.

    VS V6 high idle.

    Seems normal to me. When it first start it is higher then drops down = Normal

    Magnefine Filters - Beware they do explode!

    Did you put it before the radiator (cooler) or after? It is meant to go after it, that way the fluid has been cooled down a bit.
  12. James39

    vs trouble trouble, drama galor

    You will get bubbles from a radiator that has been running for a bit then adding cold water to it. So that does not mean it has a blown head gasket. It is a reaction from cold water going into a hot system.

    For anyone who turns ignition on, car won't start but radiator fan goes

    Keep to the thread you started lol Check your fuel pump, since the car has been sitting for 12 months.

    VS V6 new ignition barrel fitted, turns but won't kick over.

    It would not crank if that was the case. If still using the original key head that will not be the problem. When the immobiliser disarms the flashing red light will stop flashing. Since the car has been sitting for 12 months I would be checking the fuel pump.

    idle issue attention

    No, not at all.

    car keeps stalling when put into drive

    Clean the IAC or replace if need be, check the TPS and fuel pump and fuel regulator. You may even have error codes so check for errors (After all that what it is there for)

    Vr v6 has no spark

    I am ignoring your other thread you started since it is same as this one you originally started. Anyway have you checked the crank angle sensor (CAS) or the computer (ECU) or the Body control module (BCM)? If the bracket is the one that the DFI is bolted to then you should remove the paint...

    Settle this for me... Coolant?

    The person you replied to posted on the 27-06-2009, I am sure the person has fixed it by now. This is one example why old threads should be locked, which would avoid confusion and those who do not check the dates on the posts made here.

    Vs Ecotech 3.08

    Mine fires up almost instant from cold. Been using 98 for over a year in this VS now. Will never go back to lower ****.
  25. James39

    VS went 1500 km then died at destination. Low idle / ticking / white smoke

    Well if it makes sense then change that sensor, since the car has no idea what the temp is it runs at a default setting and will explain why the idle is rough. The tick noise seems to be a leak in the exhaust so check the system for the leak and repair. Smoke in the engine bay will mean you...

    Replaced TCC PWM solenoid but still code 83

    I need help on how much trans oil my vs takes.

    While engine is running and up to temp.

    i assuming bad?

    Yes it means you need new gaskets. Clean up the mess and install new gaskets.

    VS auto problem after service

    Mine was like that and when I did a service I found that the filter had fallen in the pan. If the seal was not replaced there would be a chance it has done the same thing.

    Vs commodore auto trans problems...

    Yes and you could have a blocked filter and the pan will be dirty so it would be good to give it a proper service.

    Do a proper fluid change and replace the filter.

    worth it or not?

    Not sure how sorry, I am sure someone here will know. If it has been in the car since new I would replace it anyway. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Coolant-Water-temp-sensor-VS-V6-to-VY-V6-/230902170322?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item35c2d782d2
  37. James39

    worth it or not?

    Your temp might be fine, but the temp sensor for the ECU (There is two sensors) might not be right and as a result will cause it run badly when cold. So his information is not irrelevant.
