    Some issues on my 2013 SV6 VF Commodore

    The sub frame would probably only have surface rust. Easy to rub off and spray some black paint over it.

    Wireless CarPlay / android auto

    You can hold down the phone button the steering wheel for more than 4 seconds to activate siri too. The issue with the car play is when it first reads out the message the car does not pick up the bluetooth audio until usually when you touch re-read message which is a pain. Also no audio...

    VF AC cutting in/out when braking

    I have noticed this too on recirculate. Also the sun sensor can determine if you are inside a tunnel and switch the ac on and recirculate even tho the lights are not on both options.

    Wireless CarPlay / android auto

    I tried to watch a media file but because I have a series two and no AUX, there is no sound from the media file playing to Mylink. I actually prefer the bluetooth for the phone as I can still use my USB music I have through the USB port without having to switch the sound for the phone to AUX...

    Wireless CarPlay / android auto

    Without a phone there is no point having carplay/android auto as the module doesn't really do anything without it

    VF calais seat cover / base fix

    I saw the fix they did to my Calais V back then I thought is was very brutal as the original seat hold down did not attach to the leather trims.

    Rough idle -Spark Plugs?

    I just realized the plugs for the V8 don't get changed until 150K kms. The VB6 is at 120k kms. I can feel the difference with new plugs in my car. It seems to be more responsive low down. I think now both cars feel the same as I always thought my Director had a little more kick.

    Should it use bluetooth audio from the carplay unit or from the mylink?

    Wireless CarPlay / android auto

    I haven't enabled anything and the sensors still worked. I'll check to see if the car comes up for the front sensors. I think they did because my son walked in front of the car. The rear camera works.

    Wireless CarPlay / android auto

    I installed Apple car play unit which is mentioned today on my SS. The issue I have is it uses Blue tooth audio which I thought would switch over to Wifi. Other than that, It works fine. Just need to fine tune it and find a place to the box that will sit under the passenger side of the...

    No fuel gauge with check engine light

    Looks like they didn't tighten exhaust flange tight enough. Watch out it hasn't taken the paint off the bumper.

    Rough idle -Spark Plugs?

    I just changed my plugs at 120k Kms on the SS and now it idles a bit smoother. The plugs didn't look too bad once out. Is your engine V6 or V8?

    Wireless CarPlay / android auto

    Another question if I may ask, are you able to post the instruction manual for the install? I assume all that happens with this unit is the Wiring assembly that goes from Radio to touch screen loops through this additional unit that runs the Apple Car play.

    2013 VF Calaisv has no centre console light?

    I only use one key and the other key is a fair distance from the garage. The random song used to drive me crazy in the Calais V. The SS only appears to happen sometimes when I open the boot first with the remote instead of opening the drivers door first.

    2013 VF Calaisv has no centre console light?

    Same as mine. Although out of the 2 cars I own, the SS always remembers the same song I played last. The Calais V and the Director sometimes plays a different song that was played in a previous drive and hen the next start goes back to the song I had in the other drive. SS only does this in a...

    2013 VF Calaisv has no centre console light?

    My 2008 VE did not. There was only a blank plate in mine.

    2013 VF Calaisv has no centre console light?

    No I don't think the Caprice had one. The console light was removed in the VF during 2008 probably to save a few dollars per car. The glove box light did make a return to the VF as I think I added one to my VE back in the day.

    ZB Commodore Remote Start didn’t work why??

    I've heard if the battery is not fully charged it will not remote start. The stop/start functionality at the traffic lights also stops functioning with a ow battery.

    The steering is still mechanical. If the wheels are not aligned correctly, the steering will not be straight. I have just rotated my front tyres and also placed two of my other wheels on the back and now the steering wheel is off centered. The car still goes straight although the steering is not...

    Mylink loss of text messaging with iPhone

    I guess it won't work in Holden Cruze and also the Holden Cascada as they had the same Mylink version installed. the laser version of Mylink in Colorado, ZB Commodore, Astra, Equinox and Acadia all had Apple Car Play. Maybe Apple stopped the text messaging when a device is connected Blue Tooth...

    Mylink loss of text messaging with iPhone

    Do you think Apple were sending out multiple version of messaging for text messages? My Fitbit Watch still works with a prompt for text messages. This is a pain without text in the cars now. It was awesome when I first got my VF in 2013 with this functionality. If you hold down the phone button...

    2016 vf2 steering colum lock

    Steering lock is the electronic lock once the vehicle is turned off and the drivers door is opened. Mine pops up and I think it's got to do with the drivers door lock switch having a slow responses talking back to BCM. Notice it happens more in the warmer weather.
