That's a Killer effort mate, well done. I've got an old Ambo Adventra N i have ppl coming up n asking why their wagons dont have a window that opens. Lol. I thought they were just being suss n trying to see tools in the boot but it's happened a few times. I'm amazed it was never added as an...

I just turned round the Original Braket , and Used a V8 Cable. But i had to sit and file the Pivot ball down as it would not fit on the Cable! Hope u got deep pockets as you can now watch your fuel gauge go down with every press of the pedal! Lol.

Not sure why ppl hate on em so much, they wind out to like 9000 Rpm They have a Great shape I belted a fair few VR/VS VT/VY's in it. Perhaps. Being part German I can understand a bit more complex electrics and Suspension. (REEEE) The Headlight rear covers turn into Wheel Chocks. The Jack handle...

Does it do it only when the A/C is on? I had a coolant leak onto Mine about 10yrs ago and it Squealed like it had a dry bearing and was about to Explode. (Literally ppl stood away as it's that loud.) It was a slow leak on Block face with the water pump, took ages to find. Would only do it once...

My SS Has ESP and FE2. From factory. So they did option it, Although the Mechanic at Holdens was surprised to see it had it. Weird how so many ppl work at the places yet know so little, not like they're building a secret space ship. So, I'd say yes you can. Just use Correct FE2. The ESP may need...

Low battery Voltage Or Faulty o2 sensors. Old thread i know, just writing for ppl who have the same issue. You may notice rough Gear changes too. Limp Mode tries to save the Engine by destroying the Trans.

Go on some dirt try slide a little and feel the ESP do it's thing. Turn it off and then try slide it. Be careful though as you'll slide out real quick esp if you're used to the ESP and don't know it. It makes it real hard to lose control. Low speed on dirt best way to test it. My ss Has it and...

Yeah, Low battery Can throw up all kinds of codes. My VZ 6ltr Has Stability Control fitted, and an Exhaust sensor went and ''Trac Off'' Got stuck on, it went into ''Limp Mode'' Where it would slam into 2nd n 3rd. Only 4 spd but for ''Limp Mode'' It's almost like it's punishing the Trans n...

Out of interest did it have the threaded nut type on your thunder and push pin on the LS1?

Ignition plug on the 2005 or LS1 is a push pin type. My 06 L76 at least has the threaded nut type. I learned that the hard way, and am now stuck with a useless brand new Bosch $360 starter with the push pin. Lost the receipt, assholes at the local shop changed company names new cpu system so i...

Cheers fellas. Yeah gonna, have to get round to it. I prefer to disconnect the battery while it sits but I also like the piece of mind of having it dead locked. I want to keep the Original Key and Ignition, But i sure don't want two keys, nor do i wanna get locked out again! Certainly, was not a...

Cheers for the quick replies fellas! But probably 1000'th attempt, some Rolla door spray n the mrs touch n bam a *crunch* sound occurred I lifted the handle n I'll be damned it fkn opened! Didn't even think the Starter power Solanoid trick would actually power the key lock! (Handy to know.)...

HELP! Anyone? What I've done is deadlock the car manually, then disconnected the battery to leave the car sitting. Closed the bonnet covered car for storage. I've gone to unlock the car recently after a month or so to start her up n keep everything working etc. and the rolling lock feature is...

Yep absolute pain in the ass considering a VT VX can be done in around 20 Minutes. Just to cautionary note to anyone out there, NOT to do what I done! I Bought a starter a couple years ago (waiting for when mine does the inevitable) $320+ Bosch one it has a push/pin type blade for the ignition...

Changed the CAS Plug as the alloy bracket was broken and figured it may've got caught and yanked on the plug, matched all wires up. All leads are in right order. Fins on rear of balancer all ''looked'' fine. I've taken the **** off like 4 times now (Heaps fun). I'll try swap the MAP sensor if...

Yeah, that's what I done. Just spunout I can't find where it goes.

I'm sure the Trans vent hose was meant to go onto a line on the drivers side chassis but I can't find anywhere it could go.... So i'll need a good description or a pic of where it plugs up. I found 0 forums and no info in Gregs manual.

I'll keep it short as possible. I put an engine in from a VP. Changed timing cover put magnet in cam used VR Loom so cam sensor works. Ran fine for a few months and timing went wacko after hitting a bump. Scratched my head wiggled CAS and DFI Wiring and bam ran fine, few months hit driveway hard...

A lot of people give the Ex Cop cars **** 'muh they're not chipped' blah blah. Get in a stock commy and get in a Bt-1. you'll tell the difference in the first press of the accelerator. Not sure what it is, but they're hell of a lot pokier, lumpier and shift better than a stock commy. After all...

Mine's the same, but only when I take off quick or put it under load, I think it may be the LSD Kickin in n getting sloppy. Did you end up finding what it was?

G'day mate haven't logged in in awhile, the TRAC OFF issue was the O2 sensors on the exhaust.

G'day mate, i've also got a commy but a June29th 93' Vr Berlina that has GMH Engineering dept in the owners manual as the selling dealer and new owner, also Product Devolopment Area is stamped at the 20,000k mark in '94' and 40,000 in 95' they had mine for over 2 years and it moved between Adel...

Cool, thanks mate. I had o2 sensors changed and (TRAC OFF) problem gone for now, my mechanic got camera up exhaust n he found dodgy x-force exhaust has cats behind all o2 sensors? Wtf? Check powertrain has come back on when cruising longer. Also immobiliser fail comes up intermittently? Am...

Oh yeah i forgot to mention my idle changes as soon as trac off comes up it idles rough and stinks as if the mixture is changing. It has had an edit but it ran fine for about 2 years after the edit. Now it's pretty much constant trac off can just feel hard shifts ###n everything.

Yes i got a few codes Yeah i got a couple of codes holdens were being real ###wits put 3 P/s racks in before realising it's the high pressure hose the last rack they put in pulsated, had a big arguemunt with the bloke over them replacing it i was charged $70 for all the fluid they went thru...

G'day sorry for random post but i'm new here n dunno htf to make a new thread. But i've put a v8 (HD) diff in my VH 202 AUSSIE 4SPD but with the bigger V8 uni's it won't fit also the v8 one is longer/fatter. So i took it apart to put the 6 cyl front half onto the v8 rear but the v8 cv joint is...

Yeah this has happened to me off and on for the last few years (TRAC OFF) (CHECK POWERTRAIN) (NO HAZARDS) Now happens nearly all the time it's had previous work for same problem Pim>to>bcm. Anyone work out a sure fix for this problem? Holdens fobbed me off till the warranty ran out , now it...
