    VT Calais right rear sits lower than left , any ideas ?

    Hi folks , right rear end of my Calais is sitting roughly about an inch lower than the left hand side . I replaced the stuffed shockers and got rid of the saggy old springs , put a set of Kings in , however the right side is still lower than the left . Any ideas what else would be causing this ?

    Another VT Calais Variatronic power steer prob/question

    Hey folks , been reading threads on variatronic steer probs but not quite my issue/question . A fair while back now I had my low speed p/steer disappear to a degree , then came back , then went again a few times before completely departing . Seems the car thinks I'm going fast all the time ...

    VTII Berlina Thermofans

    So going by that data should I be replacing the Coolant temp Sensor on my wifes VX , since the fan doesn't come on until the temp reaches 107c consistently when testing in the driveway , or might the result be effected by the fact her radiator seems to have a bit of a leak near the bottom hose...

    How to increase power and torque V6

    That sounds like a bargain , a little extra bottom end go for little cost , the Mace spacer has gotta be worth that alone ! I'd snap something like that up anytime .

    VT Commodore - Brown Sludge, in overflow tank reservoir.

    I got that after a mechanic at work told me to put the waxy pellet thing in after a cooling system flush - and flushing the system with mukowt didn't seem to get rid of it !

    VT Dual Fuel slowly loses power on petrol when warmed up

    Gee culprit might not of been a great word either as I dont think theres anything wrong with the chip and certainly wasn't havin a go at the Mace company , I think they do pretty good value bolt on mods for amateurs like me to learn and gain a little with !

    VT Dual Fuel slowly loses power on petrol when warmed up

    Ok dunno about the one off (hopefully) gas problem , but yesterday arbo I changed the o2 sensor on the left but didn't have time to test the car out properly . Anyway , sitting home last night I was thinking I tried swapping out the Mace Ecu chip and the standard one before I changed fuel pumps...

    VT Dual Fuel slowly loses power on petrol when warmed up

    Thanks again folks , my day off this arbo so I'm gonna try to change the o2 sensor on the left because of those errors to be sure . Funny enough tho after work yesterday it took me 3 or 4 mins to enter the Port River Expressway , running on gas , I accelerated toward the 90kph speed limit and...

    VT Dual Fuel slowly loses power on petrol when warmed up

    I'm with ya thinking about the 02 sensor as that apparently sets of the check engine light , however it only sets it off when running on gas . I'll have to try to clear the codes again (couldn't clear them for some reason or other last night , maybe the software doesn't like windows 8.1 entirely...

    VT Dual Fuel slowly loses power on petrol when warmed up

    Thanks for the replies , I cleaned the maf and in fact swapped it out with a couple of spares I have to try as well (no guarantees on the spares though) , haven't yet cleaned throttle body since I did the injectors . Never backfired on gas or petrol . I have an ALDL cable so I'll have to hook...

    EGR Valve install help

    Just listening in and tracking down some problems I'm experiencing , would this effect the cars performance hot and cold or more when hot ? And would it effect a dual fuel Vt V6 when running on gas and petrol (Im assuming yes) as my problem is only on gas !
