Would a 2.5" work alright? Tends to be a common size. I was looking at the systems with the straight rear pipe. Might a rear muffler be better?

Thanks heaps. That's what I needed to know.

Hi everyone, I've got a V6 VU ute and in need of a new exhaust. I was wondering if anyone knows if I went V6 headers will V8 cats and catback fit? I thought it would be good to eliminate the V6 y-piece and having a full duel system but if it doesn't work I'll probably just look at simply...

When I had my VY I had the same problem. I removed the throttle body and pulled it apart and socked it in degreaser. While its soaking spray throttle body cleaner down the relevant hoses which connect to the inlet. Once all clean put it all back together and it'll be like having a brand new...

Hi everyone, Wanting to lower my VU ute but unsure how low I want to go. Post pics of your lowered utes stating what suspension you have. I need ideas on what it'll look like before I make my final decision. Cheers

Ended up finding out that the radio was still working and I was controlling it on the steering wheel buttons. It was the screen which stopped working. Still had the problem with the left side speakers not working though. Ended up selling the car anyway so it's not my problem anymore.

Hi Everyone, My VY has had this issue where only the right hand speakers are working and the left only work ever so slightly. I decided to remove the head unit and have a look to see if I could find anything that could be causing the issue. I couldn't find anything so put it all back. Now my...

Hi everyone, Yesterday my VY stopped running on LPG completely. I drove it home on gas where the idle wasn't great and it had a little bit of a miss on acceleration. I decided to remove the throttle body where I soaked it in degreaser along with the idle control valve removed. I washed them...

Thanks mate, will check all vacuum lines as well

How many O2 Sensors should a VT have? Its just a standard 3.8L if that makes any difference. Thanks for all the assistance everyone, should be able to get around to giving those things a go Friday. Will hopefully let you all know how it goes.

So far recommendation have been.... - Clean Throttle Body - Clean Idle Air Control - Clean Air Flow Meter - Replace Spark Plug Leads (If not done during service) - Replace Fuel Filter (If not done during Service) - Replace O2 Sensor (If problem persists) Is there anything else I should add to...

Cheers, will give the throttle body a clean and look at changing the O2 sensor. What else would be worth looking at? Wanting this car to purr like a kitten when idling.

Hi all, my brother bought a VT recently which has factory gas. He got it reasonably cheap due to it not running perfectly. It runs fine when driving and is actually very smooth however it idles very poorly. Thought it was a easy fix but after doing a full service and running the car on just...

With the ECU I replaced the entire thing thinking that maybe the one in the car had been chiped or something so that should be ok. When the box was replaced we also did the torque converter. The reason we changed the box in the firt place was because we suspected maybe a higher reving torque...

I havn't checked the throttle position sensor but I have checked for fault codes and it said everything is ok. If there wasn't any fault code wouldn't that mean my throttle position senser should be ok?

Whats the chance of having 2 boxes which are as rooted as reach other? But when I mannually shift up it will still hold the gear untill its ready to select the gear I have gone up to. It doesnt really hold for to long just revs high, when it hits the rev it wants it changes. It's only that...

No its unleaded and I just put in the standard stuff in from the pump This has really baffled me

Before I changed the box it was sitting on about 1800rpm at about 110km/h but this new box sits on over 2000rpm at the same speed but when I mentioned that to the machanic they said that could just be a slipping tourqe converter but shouldnt be coursing the high gear changes. both boxes idle...

Hello all, I have a Series 2 VS Commodore and its reving high before changing gears around 2500rpm sometimes to 3000rpm. I have checked the fluid and its all good, I have replaced the entire gearbox which didnt do much (7HDD was replaced with a 6HDD), changed the ECU which changed nothing...

The coolent levels are all good and the plug should be all good also. Haven't done a error check yet, how do I go bout doing one? Also is there any chance that maybe the computers have been messed around with or even replaced?

I have a VS Commodore and it seemed to be changing gears at a higher rev than normal. It was suspected that maybe the torque converter had been changed. The entire gearbox was replaced and the 7HDD box was replaced with a 6HDD box. Now it revs even higher than before. I'm not sure what the...
