I would check out the homepage too

http://au.geocities.com/commodoretech/

it has a lot of info on the cars different systems, not specific to the VR's

It goes right through to the VZ range too.

Great links Juzza. Because of them i now know that its a common model fault for the right hand radiator side tank to crack (happened to me the other day), and I now also know why my car shudders during takeoff. GW.

I just bought a VR 5Litre and one day after getting it, the engine light came on ... at the same time, the engine was running, but seemed to be completely un-responsive.

Out of gear, no rev's. I've checked the temp, but that is next to nothing.

A Quick fix was to put it in neutral, turn the ingit off and start again. I'm thinking this is not a mechanical fault .. for the moment ......

My recommendation to anyone who's V6 isn't getting warm fast, seems to run cold or doesn't hold a fairly steady temperature, or uses too much fuel, CHANGE THE THERMOSTAT NOW, before it leads to more trouble. :thumbsup:
