    WARNING LS3 Recall about to happen

    I had the HVAC seal done on mine today.

    motorsport the name

    304kw was the only tune that was Euro 5 compatible. Oh, so that was the reason why for that lowish figure from the LS3. :(

    How difficult is it to put Cruise control and Power boot release into a VR Exec?

    Hi everyone, Just wondering what's the go with putting Cruise control into a VR that's not equipped with it? And also putting the power boot release in. Currently the car has the manual lever next to the drivers seat to open the boot. I recently got a new key for the car and it has a Boot...

    Have the cake but can't eat it?

    I overtook one of these sort of people the other day. And he gave me the finger as I went past. It was like - How dare you overtake me!!! He was in a Holden Cruze too

The 90 k Numpties. :D Ill have to think of a name for the worse ones that do 80. :rolleyes: Its starting to become a real problem on the regional highways here. There ends up being a buildup of about...

    VF SS Ute sailplane brake light

    Ok, Thanks fellas. Thay said at the dealership it was a finicky job to do. Just didn't understand why they wanted the car for the whole day. And if it was simple enough, Id reconnect it myself.

    VF SS Ute sailplane brake light

    Hi everyone, Where about's does the brake light plug into? I had my new SSV redline ute in for its 1 month checkup and I was told that the sailplane brake light wasnt working. Id say the reason being that I had the sportsbar removed which has its own high mount light on it. They have not...

    The same thing has happened to mine. Id say the dealership did it to mine with a pre delivery clean as there were waterspots on the plastic parts as well

    Chrome / alloy/ polished alloy wheels are the original and best look. I really don't like this current trend of blacking out everything. :(

    I didn't try getting a hardlid. I just settled for the standard soft tonneau cover. Which I had to get, because the original one had clearance holes in it for the sportsbar

    I just had the sportsbar taken off by the dealer. I got to keep the bar, and the matching tonneau cover but I doubt ill ever refit it. Same with the original black wheels. I got those back as well. The wheels I got on it are the same type fitted to the VE Series 2 redline and the early VF...

    Yep, I wouldn't have it any other way. Took a bit of my own work and extra money to get it that way. Had to buy the new wheels, and chrome bits and get the dealers to fit them up

    For those interested, My Black beauty has arrived at the dealership. But cant take her home yet, as there has been a "bungle" with the wheels I ordered for it. Only 3 wheels of the 4 turned up. The 4th wheel has to come up from Melbourne meaning another few days delay. :(

    MY17 Specs and Release Date

    No, Unfortunately not...... :( So looks like next week Which is probably better anyway as that's when all the accessories I got for it turn up. Got a different set of wheels to go on it, and a few other things.

    The call is immanent for me as well Steve. Dealer was saying it should be there this week. Only 1 day of this week left, and hasn't turned up yet.

    Well, getting closer. Mine was supposed to start its journey down the 'line on the 5th. Does the Elizabeth factory only work Mon to Fri. Or do they keep working through to Saturday?

    How Long does the Elizabeth plant take to manufacture a single VF from start to finish?

    Hi all, With the start of my Ute build getting closer (5th July) Was just wondering approximately how long it takes for a VF Commodore to be made. From the very beginning, to the very end. And driven off line and out of the factory.

    Well, Its one month to go from today before I get to see my Black beauty. And 17 days till she's "conceived" and starts its journey down the production line. :D

    Thanks guys. I don't really want the sports bar on mine, and was just hoping it wasnt too much trouble to remove it in regard to the brake light.
  29. VL Executive

    MY17 Specs and Release Date

    Just a quick question all. Do the utes with the sports bar fitted, still have the brake light in the sailplane? In other words, if you take the bar off. Will you be left without a brake light?

    To Drive or Not to Drive????

    I've got a 100 km drive to home when I get mine. Which will mostly be highway, and a couple of twisty rural roads. Depending if the roadworks that are happening up here at the moment are still going in 2 months. Don't want road stabiliser (wet cement powder) on the new car. To avoid that, the...

    Bugger :( Is it absolutely necessary to have staggered wheels. I'm not going to be doing track days, racing, or anything in it. Just normal driving. Non Redline SS doesn't have them and they have the same performance level?.

    Walfers62 - I'm hoping that I can get the silver / machine finished ones for my car. Ill have to have further discussions with the dealer. But unfortunately it sounds like the machine finish ones arnt available in staggered. :( Wish Holden gave a choice here - Not everyone likes the Black wheels

    I'm the same, don't like the all the blackout gear on them. I've already asked for the chrome to be put back on, which is supposed to be a no cost option to be changed over. And I'm also thinking of these Machine finished HF20s in lieu of the Black wheels. I'm only 34, and I prefer the shiny...

    Anyone know if you can get any other wheel options other than the Black 19's standard on the redline? I don't really like the current black wheel trend. I want shiny alloy wheels / polished alloy. Like VF Series 1 SSV redline

    Update Got the excellent news today that my local dealer has secured me an SSV Redline ute. Another dealer agreed to do an exchange!!!! So I'm now getting a 5th July build Manual 6 speed SSV Redline utility in black. They are expecting it at the dealership several days after its built.

    VR - VS Speedometers interchange?

    All good, was the printed circuit that was the trouble not the speedometer.
