v8 5.7l

Hey hoping someone can give me a hand my vy ss electricals cut out when at high rpm for example my Speedo\rpms stop working for a couple seconds abs and battery light turn on and traction kicks in but it only all cuts out for a couple of seconds after the rpm’s get to high I was thinking a...

Doing a bit of hunting on the shed ornament. Chasing a leak either sump gasket or rear main. I’ve attached a YouTube vid of what I recorded. Around 40-50secs oil can be seen seeping slowly from sump bolt before the bolts that holds sump to rear main seal plate. Towards the end of the vid, the...

Hey all can’t seem to find a way to check for fault codes on an LS1. It’s a 2002 VX Calais. I bridged pins 5 and 6 but looks like that only works for the V6 and 304 engines. Do I bridge different pins or that method is out of the question for the VX LS1s. Cheers

Was wondering which factory clusters are in a phantom mica 2000 VT SS 6spd?pics would be sweet I have posted mine up if anyone could clarify it’s correct much appreciated Cheers

Alright lads and lasses, I've had a partially built LS1 sitting in my shed for ages now and am finally in a position to be able to drop it into my Calais. Now I know it's obviously much cheaper to just go buy an SS but where is the fun and sense of achievement in that! As far as I know, I can...

Hey there, Just seeing if i could swap my v8 maf sensor with a V6 as my one in my V8 is buggered and i have a v6 at home that is being wrecked. Cheers in advance.

Before everyone jumps to tell me "Don't do it, It's cheaper to buy a full VZ SS blah blah blah" I know. I know it's cheaper, but my VZ SS Ute was written off the other day (Smashed in the entire rear end courtesy of rain and a telegraph pole...) I am curious as to how hard it is to just throw...

Hey guys just wondering I have some front end damage to my car, the front metal frame of the car is a bit pushed down than normal so I'm just wondering on how I would go on to remove the front frame of the Commodore not too sure what it's called but it's where the bonnet latch goes into and also...

Hi all My VZ Calais is going strong with 280k on the clock, driving around 500 highway kilometres a week. In the past few months, when the engine is cold (weather isn't cold up in Central Queensland) and parked on the flat, there is a noise for the first few seconds on start up. The noise...

Hey guys Does anyone know or has anyone tried to have a trip computer (distance travelled since reset) via the OBD2? I'm officialling at a rally and want to make it easy for the co driver to see the distance we're into the stage (this isn't essential but would be nice) without having to buy a...

In my v8 VX 2000 Commodore which is converted to LPG, I almost always have a check engine light on when driving on LPG. My OBD 2 gives me the code P152 - 02 Sensor 1 Bank 2 High Circuit Voltage. When viewing live data O2 sensor 1 Bank 1 will be running as normal, perhaps on the low voltage side...
