VZ Berlina Common Faults

[vinda69]

G'day guys,

I'm helping my old man look for a new car and he's looking at an '05 Berlina VZ.
What are some of the common faults to look for in the engine and body wise, or anything else.

easy one mate, don,t buy a vz, they are easily the worst car Holden have ever made, historicly Holden cars have been on a decline since Holden employee's have had drug testing.

Radiator cap failing fuel filler cap failing engine full of sludge if not serviced every 7000km water pumps on the v6 depending on the km heater taps breaking that's across the vt-vz range

I've heard of regular problems with timing chains on these which are a costly fix ?

Thank god he didn't go for it.
The salesman was shit and couldn't answer any of my questions and said that he can't get minor scratches touched up.
Cheers for the help guys
