Two things, 1. when the sticky link for fault use to work, the problem with the seats moving back and forth was a washer that would wear and you had to replace it. 2. for the headlights, i got wet sanding paper all the way to 2000. took the lights out and wet sanded all the crap off. then i...

there is an iphone app called fuelly. when you fill up you give it odo, cost and ltrs. it works the rest out for you and tells you how your car is running. you can also manage multiple cars

i believe that with no vacuum the tap defaults to a flow state that directs water to the core.

i would try flushing the heater core. it could be blocked. start with low pressure and watch what comes out the other side. flush also in the opposite direction.

when you had the inlet gaskets done, did he change the paper gasket between the sc and the manifold? To do the job correctly the SC would need to be removed and so this gasket could be damaged. Also make sure that there isn't an intake leak at the back of the SC. there is a U bend and the...

i purchased an uncoded barrel and switch from holden. not very expensive and you get all the wafers to code it yourself.

do you have climate control or manual dials?

click on it and it will error then go to the top right and you will see 3 dots next to open click on the dots and you will see download that should let you download it

will put this up till later tonight so dropbox doesnt get smashed. https://www.dropbox.com/s/cy0j257zjocvxaf/89-Holden-Commodore-VX-Workshop-Manual.pdf?dl=0 If anyone wants to host the files for VT VX VY i can forward

i got 3 of them then the site told me thats all i could download ....

i got my vx manual from here ... http://www.workshopservicemanual.com/m006328-holden-commodore-calais-statesman.html

depending on the servo, my S1 l67 does the same but i can keep filling it. sometimes it can click 5 times and another 20 litres will go in. I think the breather for the pump is just tripping. I have had pumps that will trip after only 5 litres on an empty tank

So late last week i cleaned the MAF and throttle body. i put an injection cleaner into a half tank, then on thursday put another in and filler it up. Drove to Ballina from Penrith and then back on Monday. 1700 odd kms and she got 9.4l/100km. when i filled her on the way back i got a kms to empty...

all mine needed half a turn. When looking at the location of the nuts on the firewall drivers side, i can see where the clunk i felt came from :)

def remove the ignition switch as it makes putting the barrel back easier. then you can put the switch back. also will allow you to see if there is anything in the switch stopping it.

i can see one at the top of mine but not sure about second as i cant see the bottom of the neck without pulling the belt and pulley off. Where is the second one located that you see?

my mum has a VS that we couldnd lift the bonnet. I purchased 2 new bonnet struts only to find that the hinges has seized a bit. WD40 to penetrate and all is good.

What a change a little TLC can make. Last week my VX Calais got new O2 sensors (i believe i still had original set 372K kms old) , plugs, oil and filter, air and fuel filters. Brake fluid flush. Washed down the engine bay and underbody and fit all new idlers and belts inc the SC. While under...

the sc ribbed pulley is larger than the other one on the main belt. i just tossed that pulley and rubbish was collected this morning. If you were close to penrith i have my old belt as i just replaced all idlers and belts on mine

the removal of the cap is so you are able to check brake fluid. if you have ever topped it up, you will have to much fluid in the lines for the reservoir when you compress the pistons. I take the cap off and remove the old fluid with a syringe. then i wipe out the reservoir with a clean rag as...

i stand corrected .... please see below if it is the right side light only i would be looking for a plug/wire problem. there is no fuse just for one headlight

thanks for the names :)

Looking at a Mace memcal. I read on here that there are guys that do them also. I did a search but cant seem to find their names. Can anyone help please. Thanks Boris

adding onto what strgas said about oil. when you take the supercharger belt off, grab the pulley between your fingers. now rock it back and forth. if there is any play you would be advised to take the snout off and replacing the coupler. you will need to replace the oil when you do this. the oil...

i had all my actuators burn out and deadlock my car, VX calais. Put the key in the drivers door. Hold it as close to the lock as you can with your fingers and turn clockwise. Because you dont do this very often it will turn a bit and stop. Now keep turning it with a bit of force and it will...

Shaun, in point 6, are you saying you replaced the BCM and ECU from a working VT or only the key? if you haven't swapped, lout could be correct. find it and try pulling the connectors out. had problems with mine locking on its own, drivers door switch not working interior lights and auto lights...

If it is the actuator, put the key in the drivers door lock. then turn it to unlock it and keep going. My actuators locked, dead locked then kept driving themselves till the little motor burned (did all 4 doors). there is a mechanical override and the key should unlock the door so you can open...

when i did mine, L67, i removed both hoses from the block and put a hose joined into the small one. Fits like a glove and then i could connect my hose. Dont turn the water on too high as you could damage the core. also remember that you need to open the vacuum valve to get the water into core.

something has happened to the links ... i get the same ... even when i go to www.phoenixmechanical.com.au it redirects me to dvdboxseriesshop

why not do a few other things while you are there. You will need to remove the supercharger, so replace the gasket and o-rings for it. while it is off you have easy access to the thermostat. Also the fuel rail will need to be removed so injector o-rings and baskets are easy access. Check for...

I have a VX I and i don't have the T on that vacuum line. mine comes out through the one way valve and into the firewall Boris

Was reading a large post about it. So what you guys, Calais5l vc commodore are saying is that it should just bolt in? I am getting the frame, arms, Hubs and shafts. I will be using my diff and callipers. boris

Reading has indicated that the VX I is based on the VT, the VX II is like a VY. From what I am reading, I also need to replace the tail shaft.

I am keeping my diff. My car has330k on a SC Calais. I'm doing it to freshen up the suspension and it fixes the rear end camber problem of the VX I. No more chewing inside of rear tyres

hey guys, I have an opportunity to get a VY Series II real k frame (85k old) to update my VX series I. I have read that it will bolt directly in while still using my tail shaft. I am just looking at confirmation that this is correct? Thanks guys

the drain that drops to nil is because you have a relay that is powered for 30-60 mins after you lock or leave the car. This is the interior illumination relay, that will time out. it times out so that if you leave the glovebox, centre console or even an interior light on, it will power them off...
