Gday,
My VS Series I Calais V6 starts with a bit of a jerk, but once it starts it runs fine without a problem. Could this possibly be an engine mount causing the problem. Also it need a few more turns of the starter to start when its warm. Has had quite a few things replaced on it, eg computer, o2 sensors, coil pack, injectors before I got it - but I guess one of the above could still possibly be a problem. I've cleaned the IAC and thats fixed the idling problem it used to have (but its always started harshly since I've had it).
Also it seems to be using a shitload more fuel than my VP V6 Calais - about 10L/100km on the freeway instead of the VPs 7L/100. Brakes arent binding and seems to roll alright. Is there anyway to test the lock up torque converter?
any help would be great!
