Hey all, Ive had a little accident in my VT Berlina and the driver and passenger air bags were deployed.... Can any one help me out on what needs to be replaced??
if it was my car i'd get new covers and tech2 write out the bags... i would imagine a proper bag replacement and whatever exceeds the value of your avg. VT
I'd guess airbags,airbag covers,at least drivers seatbelt buckle,the sensor box thingy under the drivers seat, tech 2 to clear the faults
I'm guessing that if the airbags went off, so did the seatbelt pretensioners, so they will need replacing too.

airbags, pretensioners, SRS module, front crash sensor/s.
thats it pretensioners,not bloody buckles,couldnt remember the name
might be cheaper to buy another commodore with a blown moter or something
Would cost him about $1,000 fitted if he goes second hand bags and dash top. but the rest new. Go to an auto electrician also.

Fitting them yourself is easy,just make sure battery is disconnected for awhile & leave it disconnected during install

I would hate to see what you call a big accident if airbags going off is a small one
ok new airbags installed and all damage fixed.... now i am getting code 23! can someone explain to me what this is??
thanks for all ur help guys
