    Default SV6 gone into Holden Dealer for warranty work

    Well, after reading about all other people's issues, my SV6 developed the following awesome faults:

    IQ - Lost HVAC controls / clock when turning on the car (in hotter weather)
    IQ / steering wheel controls - happened recently - hit the trip button (from speedo to x) and launches into NAV and stays that way.
    ABS / front wheel - Feels like ABS engaging when going in reverse (only happens when on my drive way though)
    Drivers seat: mid seat making funny noises and moving/creaking
    Air vent: found that the backing bit that lets you lift and move the vents is not connected.

    Happy times dropped off car this morning, hopefully gets all fixed soon!

    Darks,

    All that should be straight forward for a decent dealer to sort out. I heard from a friend (who's a little involved with dealers) that they are getting much better at diagnosing the iQ problems and their fix % is quiet good now. Sometimes means a new component to be installed (German reliability & quality control) but them's the breaks. Its a pain having to drop the car off though...

    Let us know how ya go?

    Well after leaving th car all day the result? No fix for the iq as it's current firmware, so they reset it and told me to video or take a picture when it happens again. Fixed the seat by lubing and dislodging and refitting. Vent got taken apart. Fixed and the abs????? Next scheduled service will be leaving overnight to recreate the problem.
