I just bought the missus a new Berlina international, leather seats and all the other crap. Got a sportwagon so came with reverse camera as well. great car so far. Traded in her old VY berlina wagon and the extras you get now days are miles ahead.

I have one in the greyish colour you are chasing, can out of my Berlina after about 15000k's has all the EQ settings and the likes. PM me with the price you are wanting to spend and we can see if we can sort something out.

Just poured my self a Turkey and coke.....bottoms up!

From the title I thought you ment a light that lets you know when your engine had reached a pre-determined RPM, that would be handy to know how to fit.

Like the saying goes, If it has tits or wheels.......

Why dont you whack the tyres from the 15x6's on to two of the 15x7's, or are all 4 of the new tyres good and you just want to use up the two good ones on the 6" rims first? in which case sticking em' on the front will be fine.

Um sorry mate you lost me?

I have fitted a set of VZ SV6 rims (17") to my VY berlina and have never felt this "tram lining" the car tracks as good as it did with the old rims, so I dodnt think any car should do this, never happened with my VS Calais either and that had 18's on it and was lowered, once again tracked dead...

Hey Guys, looked at the book in the glove box of my ..........(insert commodore or berlina here as you wish) and it only says Commodore, Calais so that is interesting, never took any notice of it before. As for the guy paying $54000 for it that would be about right depending on what options he...

This is what I thought, but it must be different in each state, if not there are definately going to be some shocked people out there if there insurance company does find out!

Definately sounds like bump steer, get your suspension checked and a good wheel alignment done as well, you dont have lowered suspension do you? if a wheel alignment wasnt done to well after the lowering job this will cause problems like this, if your wheel alignment has gone out or as mentioned...

Just had my first 8 weeks ago, im 32 and the missus is 28, tell ya what guys (an girls) if you can hold em out for a few years they go berserk when you tell them you are ready for kids! bloody hell I never though it would be me saying "not tonight honey im really tired!" ha, ha, one back for the...

Mate have you just jumped sides?, "If you know where cops are set up you wont speed or be stupid" didnt I just say they alert you to police radar, so like you said when it peeps you wont speed or be stupid. Thanks for helping me out on this one and good to see you had had a rethink about it...

Radar detectors are useful because they alert you to police radar. Do you know what a paragraph is? If so please feel free to point out the errors of my ways. I guess now its my turn to ask the questions. Have I struck a sore nerve with the whole rim thing?

Hows what? what have the usefullness and advantages got to do with encouraging stupidity or needing/not needing one, nothing? which argument or statement are you putting forward?. Radar detectors are legal in WA so concidering that the person who asked the question lives in WA they do come in...

Wow thats a big call, no one needs high HP engines or 19inch rims but people sill have them, and mates proberbly encourage more stupitity that most things so should we not drive with them either, I have been overtaken when doing the speed limit by more cars without radar detectors that with them.

Look on top of the std head unit that came out of the car, has all the colours and pin locations on a sticker (well it did on mine anyway)

You will need to remove the std cradle as well, then the plugs unclip off the back of that. Then all you need is a matching plug from your local stereo supplier, wire that to your new head unit then plug it back into the existing loom plug, this way you wont have to cut anything and if the need...

Exactly what StoneX said

I have a Berlina Wagon and love it, nice and subtle, Calais have a few extra things like full electric seats i.e. forward and back is electric (and seat memory for each key), duel zone climate control, better stereo (which is still crap IMO) and a few other tweaks in the cabin. Neither come with...

I cant say I have ever noticed my rear wheels getting any hotter that usual and I have towed both little 6x4 trailers, furniture trailers and car trailers, so not sure what is going on there? They did get hotter in stop start traffic with the furniture trailer on and the day temp was in the high...

Bottom part it held in by three (might be 2) plastic prongs which are part of the grill, you will have to manipulate them with a small bladed screw driver to release them while pulling up on the grill at the same time.

I borrowed my Father in laws SV6 to drive over to the Summernats and back, only had 2500 ks on it when I set off, great car to drive and handled the road really well, returned an average of 8.8 L/100ks for the whole trip and was using 8.1 L/100 ks at 110 km/h, it is an 05 model with the 5 speed...

G'Day Guys I have a VY Berlina Wagon and I recently did some upgrades to the stereo. I was allready running a pioneer headunit (DEH 9450) with pioneer splits replacing the front stock speakers, pioneer 2-ways replacing the rear door speakers and a pioneer GM3000T amp powering a 10 inch...

Great news on the option menu still working, My VY still has all the menu functionality (except anything to do with the stereo obviously) but as you mentioned it is slower to scroll through it all, you have to hold the buttons in for a tad bit longer that usual to go to the next function, once...

I have had those brackets and also had nudge bars with big hella ralle 4000 spotties and have had no problems with engine heat or rising in temps.

stew7700 What I call a 1/2 sweep in the SV6 is the speedo only sits horizontaly at 0 and goes to about "3 o'clock" for 260 km/h (or what ever the top speed is) where as My Berlina has 0 km/h at about "7 o'clock" and goes arount to about "4 o'clock" this is the same for the tacho. Does this help...

I can vouch for 237 km/h out of a VZ SV6, that is if you believe the big digital speedo.....buggered if I was going to squint at the dash trying to read the 1/2 sweep speedo...one of the dumbest things holden has done to a dash!. And it either has a limiter at that speed or its out of legs take...

No tork screws on a VY that was the VX like hsv_punk said you need to use a flat blade screw driver, there are 4 slots in the rear of the wheel which you can see if you jam you head around there, insert the screw driver vertically and twist (can remember which way and pull on that corner of the...

G'Day All I am wanting to build a false floor in the back of my VY wagon to mount 2 amps under, 1 x 4ch for the door speakers and 1 x mono for 1 (or 2 depending on room) 10 inch sub/s. My question is how much airflow is needed to keep amps from over heating? I only want to make the floor high...

WTF ??????????????

Cameron, yea my car would be noticably different to yours I have 3 extra seats and my cargo area is covered.... I have a VY Berlina wagon but apart from that everything is the same with the interior (I think your stereo might be black instead of the grey which I have), when you get your stereo...

When you open the glove box look up the top on each of the sides near the front and you will see two (one on each side) rubber tangs, which stop the glove box falling down any further, pull these in towards each other and then the glove box will drop down even more, then you just pull the glove...

Cameron, they do make a plug, although you cant get one that plugs straight into your head unit and then into the cars wiring loom, it is a male plug for the main wiring loom and you have to solder the ends of your stereo to it then it plugs in, so there is no cutting of the original wiring...

Its easy mate, get the VY adapter (it is the same plug on VY's and VZ's and check to see if the wires are the same when you plug it in, if not you will have to work off the colours in the main loom plug not the one you just bought, the colours for which wire does what are on the top of the...

G'Day Frandy, from memory the gauges (which are autometer sport comp not the HSV ones as I wanted black to match my dash cluster) were about $100 each from American Autos, the binnicle I got from holden $140 (bit exy) and I bought the HSV adapter for the oil pressure sender unit to fit to the...

Sorry guys dont know what happened to the other pic but hopefully this one works !.

Are you planning on getting another Gen III if so you can only get wagon's with V8's in berlina or SS so that will bump the price up and you can buy a lot of fuel for the extra 10k it would cost you to upgrade, I have a Berlina VY and love it, got most of the bells and whistles in it, with...

Stock head units sound good untill you have them replaced and hear the difference, I have a pioneer deh-9450 in my vy, in the pic the plastic panel around it is black and textured, but I have at the moment taken it out, given it a coat of hi-fill and am in the process of colour matching it to...
