    Remove & Replace VE Omega Bootlid - Process?

    Yup, it is really that simple. Don't even think from memory the boot struts need to be removed as they are connected to the hinge?

    2011 series 2 ve sv6 head unit

    So, just so I have this straight, all I would need is the above trim pieces, an Aerpro (or similar facia kit) and Bobs my uncle, I can whack any noise-make-it-happener in that I like? Sounds to simple to be true .....

    HELP!! How to clear "SERVICE VEHICLE SOON" on VE Commodore

    For anyone else having the "Service Vehicle Soon" message coming up on the display, here's how you potentially fix it. Step 1 : Press the Outside Temp button on your IQ system. Step 2 : If it displays -- or some other random garbage, your OAT (Outside Air Temperature) sensor is faulty. Step 3...

    Brake Light Switch

    Hi, I need to replace the brake light switch in the wife's VX wagon but after removing the fuse panel flap under the column, there is an aircon tube in the way. How do you remove this to allow access to the brake light switch or alternatively, how do I get to the switch if removing this part...

    Posting in Trading Post Section

    Any idea on when they "approve" messages as the parts I am chasing I am rather desperate for. The sooner I get word out, the sooner I might get them.

    Posting in Trading Post Section

    Okay, I have been a member for over 4 years. I have over 400 posts. Why can't I post a thread wanting to buy car parts? I posted in the right section then it tells me that a moderator has to approve my message? before it will get posted. WTF?

    Neutral Safety Switch Location

    You sir, a a f^*&ing legend! ...... lol I was almost tearing my hair out. I bridged the starter relay to determine if it was starter motor side or computer side and worked out the problem lay with the starter. Read your post, grabbed my jack handle and hit the solenoid a couple times, hit the...

    Neutral Safety Switch Location

    Yeah mate, security light goes off when I turn the key. Both key fobs lock and unlock the doors too. It's got me stumped, that's what is leading me to believe that I might have accidentally unplugged or bumped a secondary neutral safety switch either on the side or INSIDE the pan on the...

    Neutral Safety Switch Location

    Yeah, done that. I replaced it with the horn relay. Still no dice.

    Shagged box

    Give it a service. Mine was doing the same but after a filter change it works beautifully.

    Neutral Safety Switch Location

    Ok, this might be a bit long winded, so I apologise in advance but I need everyone to know the full details so they can make an accurate assessment of my dilemma and offer advice accordingly. Rewind 3 weeks ago. I did a transmission service and it all went off without a hitch. Had a slight...

    Neutral Safety Switch Location

    Hi all, Can anyone tell me where the neutral safety switch is located in a VR SS? I know there is one on the console near the shifter, but is there another on the gearbox itself, and if so, where is it? Cheers

    Transmission Question

    Cheers, but I am still stumped. I have poured 6 and 3/4 litres into it and it's still not registering on the dipstick. Surely the stock standard trans cooler incorporated in the side of the radiator doesn't hold 2 litres of fluid?
  25. ElDubya

    Transmission Question

    Doesn't anyone have a 5 litre 4L60E manaul that specifically says how much fluid is required after a filter change? I really don't want to overfill it.

    Coil location?

    Cheers. I bet it's an absolute bitch to get to as well :(
  27. ElDubya

    Transmission Question

    No, all I did was a filter change and emptied the trans cooler on the side of the radiator. It's in a late 93 VR SS if that makes any difference?

    Coil location?

    Where is the coil located on a 5 litre? My car refuses to start when hot, and a mechanic suggested the coil may be rooted. What is the best type of coil to replace it with and where would be the best place to mount it? Cheers [EDIT : Speeeeeling]
  29. ElDubya

    Transmission Question

    Hi, Can someone with a workshop manual help me out here? I have been trawling through pages and pages of threads about the 4L60E but every answer I have found all concerns the 6 cylinder model, not the 5 litre. I serviced my trans on the weekend and after putting it all back together, I...

    Hard to start?

    Thanks Hako. No recent mods, but I have noticed nearly all VR-VS I get in, the problem is evident in almost all of them to a certain degree. Some take a split second to start turning over, and some like mine can sometimes take up to 5 seconds. I am thinking of replacing the relay for the...

    Hard to start?

    Hi all, Lately, my VR SS has become hard to start. I can turn the key to the start position, and sometimes it can take 5 seconds for it to start winding over. More often that not though, it only takes around 2 seconds. How can I fix this?
