    The fact is the quote you get from the opposing service provider has to list all the items that are currently on the GMH service coupon and must quote genuine GMH parts where appropriate..to obtain the genuine item would be a problem here as their is only Repco and to use a Repco filter it would...

    A friend of mine who owns a taxi in my town....put clear vinyl on the sill plates of his taxi to stop scuff marks....after a few months the clear vinyl turned yellow...he has a white taxi....you could try it....but that is what happened and maybe the heat from the globes would be a problem...

    Headlight / Bonnet Protectors, Mudflaps and Sports Armour

    Spare wheel VF ute

    The vf ute is the same as the ve ute from the back window to the tail gate...now if you replace the spare with a full size alloy wheel....you have to install it with shiny face pointing to the ground....as it has a safety lock on it to stop it being dislodged and becoming a road hazard....bugger...

    Electronic steering

    I remember seeing it was a serpentine belt....so that it did not dislodge...or maybe a v-belt...I cannot remember....anyway I would not play around with this type of arrangement...obviously it is tied in with the steering wheel mechanically and power assist electronically.

    Electronic steering

    There is a small serpentine belt inside the electric motor that operates the rack and pinion and is bolted to it...replacement I guess is to remove the whole assembly....there is definetly no power steering fluid....gone, dead and buried....there is probably grease sealed in the rack and pinion...

    Burning Question ?? Mix and Match !!

    Just wondering when they say petrol prices are going down are they quoting E85, E10,96 Octane or 98 Octane...and do the higher priced brands of petrol follow suit????.... I do not think so! How do we not know that E85 can be mixed with E10, E10 mixed with 96 and 98 Octane...the attendant behind...

    I had a similar nudge bar on my VU SV6 Ute with 2 driving lights....very easy to attach....the VE nudge bar is more difficult as you have to cut 2 square holes in the front bumper and bolt directly to the 2 chassis rails....all the instructions come with the unit....and there are 2 LED lights...

    Low beams not working all of a sudden - high and park fine

    Make sure the long stalk is seated correctly.....as it requires both + and - contact as it is seated in the slot...there is no leads for the parking lights....they are tricky at times as they must be seated correctly to operate. !!!!!!
