    removing back bumper insert..

    I have not been able to work out how they choose which vehicles get a painted black rear insert. We have a redline, which has a painted insert, but have seen other redlines without it painted, and SV6's with painted ones too.

    Strange marks on wheels

    Looks like it may be filliform corrosion. Only occurs with coated aluminium I believe.

    New SS-V Redline rattle coming from under the car

    Don't accept them telling you that it is a "normal" sound. We have an April 2015 Redline sedan, and it does not, and has never had this noise. 15,000kms.

    Rapid marriage savers

    The washers go inbetween the rubber block and the car. I ended up taking the whole hanger off, as I couldn't just slip it out. Not sure if the calais have the same type of connection. The redline has a cone type connection, that is secured with one clamp.

    Rapid marriage savers

    Have a look at this thread that I started, https://forums.justcommodores.com.au/threads/rapid-exhaust-marriage-savers.247247. I ended up spacing the right hand side down by 8mm using washers. With the angle, this needs to be adjusted at the clamp connection. Best off having someone to stand...

    Hi Larry, They do still have a small amount of drone, but we have got used to it now. Speaking with the owner of Rapid Exhaust, he said that these can still be used with other exhausts, and cut out the drone on them. When I spoke with him about the light drone, he suggested to place a blanket...

    New SSV REDLINE fuel consumption?

    As per Senator01. We get around 11.5 around town, and have been down as low as 8.9 on the freeway. Don't pay any attention to the display figures. It is only an "indication". When the wife takes the kids to & from school when it raining (only around 1km), if that is the only driving she does...

    If you're just after some noise, what about Marriage Savers, or J Pipes.

    Thanks guys. We44pn, after seeing yours, thinking I should have blacked out the mirrors too. Oh well.

    Yet another SSV Redine - Heron White

    Well I picked up our MY15 VF SSV Redline back in April, upgrading from a VE SV6 Z Series, and have been meaning to put a few pics up since then. Been admiring some of the other rides, and thought it was about time to put a few of mine up. Ordered from the dealer with rear wing spoiler...

    Rapid Exhaust - Marriage Savers

    Tips are larger than the stock mufflers, and fill the cut out in the bumper a bit better, and stick out slightly further. Looks so much nicer.

    Rapid Exhaust - Marriage Savers

    $520, either from eBay, or direct through Rapid Exhaust. So easy to remove & replace with the clamp joint.

    Rapid Exhaust - Marriage Savers

    Yeah, I don't know exactly how it works either, but when I had the first muffler removed, I started the car up and it was way louder than with the Marriage Saver fitted.

    Rapid Exhaust - Marriage Savers

    Noticed that there had been talk on a few different threads regarding the J Pipes & Marriage Saver rear muffler replacements fabricated by Rapid Exhaust. There is a dedicated thread for the J Pipes, so thought I would start one for the Marriage Savers - keep it all in one place. The vehicle I...

    Rapid Exhaust J-pipe

    Links above not working for me. When I get back home on the weekend, I'll see if I can get a video done and post it up. We did a before & after with the car just sitting in the garage, and the difference is just amazing.

    Rapid Exhaust J-pipe

    I have fitted them to my Redline. The sound it gives is awesome. The only problem is that it drones when AFM kicks in. This was the reason I got the Marriage Savers, was to avoid the drone. Awaiting a response from Rapid Exhaust.

    Do the keyless-entry VF's link MyLink settings to the key?

    Be interested to hear other comments on this aswell. We had a similar thing happen to us, where items we had set, such as passive entry, door chime, etc, had changed after we set them. The only thing we could put it down to, was maybe we used the other key fob.

    VF Holden Commodore Issues and Faults

    Probably the auto headlights switching on. Try turning it off auto, and you should get full brightness until you physically turn on your lights.

    Opening boot with Rear Wing

    Well, we ordered the car with the rear wing, which was meant to be installed at the factory. To "get us into the car quicker", the dealer gave us the car that he had ordered for his wife - exactly the same as ours, but with a lip spoiler. When the other came in, the boot lids were swapped over...

    Opening boot with Rear Wing

    Thanks guys. Our boot lid does not move now that the wing spoiler is on. Will have to take it back to the dealers and get them to sort it out properly.

    Opening boot with Rear Wing

    We've just had the boot lid on our Redline replaced with one with a rear wing. With the lip spoiler, the boot lid would lift by itself once the button ws pushed. Now with the larger wing on, it has to be lifted manually. Just wondering if those that have a rear wing, have a lid that...

    Ve and vf the same ?

    Probably best off to give a windscreen replacement mob a call, I would think they would be the same. The bodies are still pretty much the same, just cosmetic changes AFAIK.

    Looking at buying VF SSV Redline

    Graphicgoose, who did the paint protection for you? I am considering getting the Modesta paint protection also. Yours looks amazing. Do you mind if I ask how much it cost.

    What deal did you get on a VF?

    After seeing the prices a few others got their redlines for on here, I'm not all that happy. However, went to 4 different dealers, and they were all pretty much the same. I think we got the best deal we could of locally. Just spewing that I didn't find this forum, and thread, until after we had...

    The Craig Lowndes Edition

    I agree with many of the other comments posted. When looking at a SSV Redline, had the Lowndes special beside the Redline. $60K for the Redline, and $65k for the Lowndes special. Apart from the signature on the dash, extra build plate, and some decals, we could not see any difference between...

    What deal did you get on a VF?

    Hmmm. Looks like we didn't get quite as good of a deal as what I thought we got. Ended getting a VF SSV Redline with a few extras for $60,380 - Driveaway. It was the best deal we could get in our area, and even on the commodore website, just a standard redline was coming in at $59,990...
