VB-VK Production Option Availability

VK V8 Engine Code

Hi guys,

I am looking at buying a VK and want to be able to confirm if it was originally a V8 when it left the factory.

It is now fitted with a rebuilt 8 from a different car.

What code should the Build or Compliance Plate have on it to show the car was born as a V8?

Thanks,

TEMPA

Either L31 or LV2, L31 means its a factory 308, LV2 means its a factory 304(mid 85 Vk onwards had these)

Hi there, I was talking to Juzza over MSN re the thread he started asking for VH production option codes. I told him that I have a Holden Parts Finder printout of all production availability options so he told me to post it up and he'd sticky it. Here goes...

vk calais codes

hey guys need some code help

my Calais model is VK8Vx19-323 (whats the 323 ?)
Trim 3036 - 73y
Paint 2F 014 - D

any help with the codes would be good

 

[SL/ENUT]

the 323 is the option pack, this one being a base VK Calais with EFi 202, M40 trimatic 3 speed auto and a 3.08:1(GU4) diff. Doesn't have electric windows or central locking.
Can't help with the paint and trim code.

But mine does have electric windows and central locking

found paint code holden calls it "copper"

 

[SL/ENUT]

Right the trim code would mean that it has Copper trim, might be leather.
Now the electric windows and central locking bit, it might be dealer fitted. My records state that a 323 pack doesn't have these at all.

yeah i guessed copper for the interior although it is velour.
unsure about why it has the locking and windows oh well
thanks for your help though

With thanks to my mate commodorenut, he's cleared up some of this for you:

3036 = Copper exterior paint
(2F-014-D is the Dulux code for the refinishing industry)

73Y = Coppertone interior trim
(Y = Velour in a VK)

Central locking was standard on a VK Calais.
Power windows were an extra cost option, but usually included.

my trim code is 3039 | 24x what colour is the interior trim standard supposed to be?
