ahkay yeah i can do it in my vx havent tried in the vz yet. cheers man :)

I think he means mode setting but yeah ill give it a try but I will drive it turn it off, turn it on empty....

Hey guys so when I bought my car a couple of weeks ago the fuel gauge always comes up saying empty and 65km left till empty, or if fully filled it wont go past 80% full. I had a mechanic have a look at it but his tech 2 couldnt fix it... I had a fuel injected gas system put in. could that of...

i paid 700 undrilled with tyres then bob jane charged 600 for all new tyres pre drill and balanced so not too bad.

I have had my SSV's for a while now but just bought my calais and the only other wheels i would have apart from them would be VE gts rims. SSV's are clean, simple and sexy.

Is it revving fairly high to get to 40? could be an ignition lead issue. happened to me, my 3rd ignition lead fell off and I wasnt going anywhere fast.

I've never tried it but I want to clean mine aswell. I heard you can just use a gerni or karcher (high pressure hose) on them and just avoid wetting the electrics or even take the battery out to do so. But wouldnt mind knowing exactly how to do so myself.

With the paddle shifts, if you have an exhaust would changing down gear give it that drone noise? It did a bit in my vx with the 1,2 and 3 when I used it on hills.

lol, yeah I dont plan on loosing any points anytime soon. Im keen to try an exhaust out though. cheers man

yup! thanks heaps man! life savor! so happy it was that instead. never been so releaved in my life lol. just saved a potential 680 bucks and a loss of my car for 3 days plus the missus off my back :D

Victoria is worse. dont get P's till 18 no turbos no supercharges or 8's and ur not on your full licence till 22 and thats if you haven't lost you 5 points. And your saying Q/L is bad. lol

spray some wd-40 on a rag and whipe it on ur window then wind it up and down a few times. thats what I would do.

here how you get them "black lights" buddy http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/general/150439-vht-night-shade-how.html

probably the only good looking green car out.

Thanks for that mate good input. It sits flush with the tyres so I sort of like it and plus my vx was sacked and it was unconformable and worrying to drive because I didnt want to get defected. Yeah I hate most of the v6 exhausts but because its the 190kw I was sort of hoping it would sound a...

Awesome calais man :) same colour as mine but yours is a v8 :( loving it though :D

thanks mate, I might lower it later down the track, not too fussed at the moment I just want to get an exhaust and air induction :)

in.............LOVE!

thanks mate, well I was going to get a turismo blue sv6 for 11,500 with 100thousand k but the guy sold it the day I wanted to actually buy it. Does anyone know what good exhuast to get? I have had exhausts on my 2 previous holdens but they where a vt and vx. I was looking at... TWIN 2.5" CAT...

Yeah there a fantastic design, same with the VE's Olivers hill. Frankston foreshore. :)

Ummm not sure how I can find out for you mate, I can ask my mate from holden but Id just go with piano black. cant go wrong with piano black ha :) hope that helps mate

hey guys thanks heaps for all the advice. me and a mate from work put her up on ramps today to have a better look and the leak is coming out of the heater tap and the back drivers sider corner. It was staring at me the whole time I just didnt think it could of been that but coolant is pouring...

haha cheers guys :) sorry about the giant pics :P yeah I love her to bits apart from the bad start we have had. (over heating issues) but we should be all fixed before the end of the week and start again :D The vz Calais is such a smooth design and they have all the interior parts spot on...

thanks mate :) Wouldnt mind having a 5.7 ltr though! I love yours, looks smooth

Looks great man. them supersports really suit it.

Hey guys I decided to buy a new car and was odding up between a SV6 or Calais and the Calais obviously won. Now trying to sell my VX, took the SSV's off her and put it on the cali, really like the silver on silver. Hit me up with what you think of her and if you have any ideas about making...

Yeah rich theres coolent stains all undr the bottom on the transmission and bits on the cats ect. I guess it's the thermostat. F*cking annoying though because I just paid 300 to get it fixed and he said the thermostat was fine. so annoyed as all my pay has gone onto the car.

I changed the radiator cap on wednesday and the mechanic changed the water pump as well and i have the red coolant. The mechanic said the thermostat looked in good condition but I dont know :\ I would like to think its just a hose. I will have a look now, take it for a drive and put the heater...

Just had a quick look and it looks like the radiator has a leak in it. I just bled the radiator and took it for a 20 minutes drive, ran great, no computer faults came up or overheating, nothing. got home and coolent was coming out from the back of the engine. (thermostat)????

Hey guys So on Wednesday my car overheated and said "check powertrain" then lost all power to her, RACV came and it got toad home. I took it to the mechanic and he said it could be the thermostat, but thankfully it was the water pump and he replaced it and the next day was great. Last night I...

Hey guys just a quick update. Got bored Saturday morning so I decided to put suede in!!! heres how it looks :) Just ask if you want a write up. easy process :)

No. Depending on the defect and how major it is they can fine you what ever you want. and I was actually really nice to him like am to all police men It was just unfortunate that I had him to pick me up on it, I know policemen and they said my cars tyres where drivable but probebly not road...
