    Ve Series 2 Omega climate control blower resistor

    No resistor, VE has a controller. Might want a second opinion or just swap it out with second hand one, still pretty cheap. Or test the blower motor, all simple stuff in a VE. Will take long to pop glovebox out that either of those two jobs.

    V8 thermo fans

    They just clip on the back of the radiator. One plug with four wires. Remove airbox or otr. It couldn't be easier.

    Internal rear view mirror fix?

    They have a spring loaded clip. Really gentle with loads of force with the right screwdriver in the slot. I replaced mine with an auto dimming model, even with ambo tint it works fine.

    Narva LED Headlight Surefit H7 12/24V

    I have the projector version and they are pretty good, I don't use the car often at night as the window tint is a tad dark to reverse without dropping the front windows and using the camera for distance. I fitted the high beam version as well, used the car new years eve, fantastic throw, without...

    How many kms will my 2006 VE SSV get out of one tank ? Highway travelling?

    Qld's straight roads easy under 9-10l/100 in the manual SS The company 3.0 auto was under 7l/100, Brisbane to Bundy and back. Absolutely zero fun at any time. No tickets either.

    VE Maloo won't start

    Read stored codes, charge the battery. Check obvious things like oil level. Manual check of fuel prime and pressure. The LS is a very simple beast. The ECU may shutdown the fuel pump if flagged from sensor feedback, could be anything. I know I'm not helping but you need to start simple and...

    Clunk sound in front when cornering.

    Take it to a suspension mob, get a quote. That's your shopping list if capable. Could be strut tops combined with worn bushes. Unless someone gets under it, it's all guesswork.

    Losh's Series I SS Ute (AKA Black Thunder).

    One of the best things i did was new super pro arms, both sway bars, links and the blood I left in the front end. I had done the struts, spring and top mounts previously. Just thinking a Ute with tight sways might not be flash. But if you carry 6 -8 bags of rapid set at all times, it could...

    I don't know?.

    Keep the new battery on a maintenance charger while you are dicking around. You might be leaving boot, doors, radio etc on and the new battery maybe low.

    Commodore Calais 2008 auto

    Lost a linkage? What does the ECU see when you change gear? That trans has a dipstick from memory, what's the fluid level? Got reverse? Nobody flogged the tailshaft?

    Overheating only when idling

    Have to check with a V6 bloke, but pretty sure at that temp both fans should run, I would hit the ac button and that should run both fans at rest. At that point check power to fans . Could be a dead relay or fan

    Car electrics turning off while driving

    Probably just enough volts to run. Test the battery and alternator. Then earth points.

    Car electrics turning off while driving

    Start simple. Volts. Battery and alternator. Earth points. Battery clamps. You have many issues, so it's probably one fairly generic one.

    Losh's Series I SS Ute (AKA Black Thunder).

    I have 3.7 manual, you guys have spoiled my enjoyment of the car. I drove it this morning and watched the rpm of takeoff and what gears I actually use. I was talked down from the 4.11 to keep the cars road manners. So second vote for 3.7-3.9
