meh i don't care i can just make another account... actually you know what that's what i'll do

sorry man, i just happen to have a short fuse, and when you've got a couple of beers in ya, it's even shorter. the whole point of this thread was to get me to 100 posts (sad) and i've achieved it now. so for all i care, someone can delete this thread now. but i guess i learnt a bit from it...

you started it in the first place. i would have been fine if you wouldn't have said: ah. another uneducated kid that doesnt have his licence yet. this thread will be closed soon. i'm sure there was something else in there, you edited that post too.

you have 700 posts in the same amount of time i've got 100, and you're calling me a post whore? that was my goal beacuse i happened to glance at it, and it was like 90.

oh and by the way stocky your car better be on gas, otherwise go get a life. i mean you have like 723 posts, you play half life... i don't care anymore because i've got to 100 posts.

so you get the exact same milage around town than you would on the highway... how does that work?

oh ok... i didn't really know there was a dual option, i'm just thinking of the really **** fords around, and some mitsubishi vans aswell. i'm just gonna ignore what stocky said... totally uncalled for. i don't even know why you bothered posting. i personally did it because i wanna get to 100...

yea mines doing exactly the same thing, i got a vs berlina. i went to check the trans fluid the other day and it was like below the cold low... so i went and got some fluid, gasket, filter etc.. and i'll service it on the weekend. hopefully it should come good...

well why doesn't holden release cars on gas? why are people still going for petrol commodores if theres nothing wrong with gas?

oh well last time i checked gas was about 69c/L which would have been about a month ago... and so like i said before if there's nothing wrong with it... why isn't every car on gas?

Your tacho is actually out of a vn berlina. there's a bit of a difference between that tacho and the ones in vr's (trust me i've been looking at one for 12 years), so the question still remains...

and if that's the case, why isn't every car on f***ing gas

oh and by the way... you said you're saving yourself $50 a fill... so it's costing you a whole $20 to fill the car when it costs me $70 to fill mine (i don't think so). gas is still very dangerous, and it can blow up easily.

oh and another thing i feel like having a bag at... i think people who drive under the speed limit are the worse cause of road rage. we have alot of victorian plated cars up here and most of them are hire cars, because rego is much cheaper in victoria. so therefore, you find alot of tourists...

well that's nice... but it doesn't change anything i still hate cars on gas... come on where's an opinion from someone whose car ISN'T on gas... and by the way it isn't better for the engine than petrol

hey, you gotta hate cars on lp gas, and do you think it's really worth it? do you really save that much on fuel, and is it worth the loss of power and the damage it does to the engine? and besides they're so dangerous, that stuff blows up easily. you usually see cars on gas that are in really...

check the dip stick for the oil. if it's low, all the oil is prolly going to the front of the sump when you brake. Peter.

drewins, can you post up a pic of your car with those mags. i was contemplating getting those a few months ago, but i wasn't sure cos i'd never seen them on an older commodore before (the vz ssz ones). i can gather they look alright from your avatar but that's like a 100 x 100px image. if you...

hey i got a vs berlina, and since i've had it you can hear the electric aerial going up and down as you turn the car on/off. problem is, the aerial itself doesn't actually move at all, but you can hear the motor going. what do you think i'm up for... i had a look at a website and i found this...

geez, that's a bit sus. so all that time before you found out how to get the digital speedo you trusted the analog one? what about when you were following people on the highway, wouldn't you have been doing something like 110 when everyone else was doing 100. personally, i get so pissed when...

yea got fluid from big w and gasket/filter from repco. what's this bizzo about having to pump it down the dip stick pipe? and how long do you think it's gonna take? Peter.

you know 270,000 k's is alot. that's around 24,500 every year, and the average is 15 - 20k a year. that means alot of wear and tear, but it sorta depends on your service history, and where you are (metro/rural). Peter.

hey, i bought a vs berlina not too long ago, and i don't usually use the climate control, (windows are the best) anyho, it only wants to work when the fan setting is on 3, and it works even better on circulation. when it's been on for like 5 minutes, the area behind it gets really hot (the...

that's really strange, because i've heard of it happening in several cases where thet immobiliser (which runs through the head unit) is not deactivated properley when you press the unlock key. so when you go to start it, the engine doesn't crank becuase the immobiliser is still active. so i have...

that's really weird, it almost sounds like it's flooding...

do you have the original head units? i'm pretty sure it has something to do with the immobiliser.

right, so does anyone know the best place to get the fluid and gasket? holden would prolly be a bit expensive, but then again i have no idea. Peter.

actually i bought a vs berlina (like i said before), those pics were just for show. the car looks mad? it's more like completely original, in really good cond, that's about it lol.

vr pics well, like i said, here's some pics of the vr before we sell it. Peter.

yea i know i was like shotgun that chip, it was sweet. i think it was like a vp clubsport or seomthing, he had a set of VYSS rims on it so it looked alright too.

but if you don't mind how much did you end up paying for the calais? it would be good to know just to use as a comparison. how many clicks has it done? and was it private or dealer? don't mean to flood you with questions but thanks. Peter.

berlinas have a level 3 dash, where the over speed is integrated with everything else. on the executive based models, theres a seperate speed alert, where the controls for the trip computer would be on the berlina. everyone here is talking about the seperate speed alert on executives.

yea i've definitely seen it done before, a guy came and parked beside me in a shopping centre, left his car and when he pressed the lock button on the key, the windows went up. about 5 minutes later, the car starts itself up with the indicators flashing, 30 seconds later he walked across...

holy s**t, they're arseh**es. i'd be so pissed if i was you. did you even notice the power steering was leaking in the first place, or is he just trying to get some extra cash out of your pocket?

nah nah, i just need new oil. but i don't really know how to do it.

as the title says. basically, the auto transmission oil is really low (below cold low), and the colour aint that flash either, so i thought i could bleed it and refill it with new stuff. i know how to do an oil change, water flush etc. if that's any help, but as far as i know you've gotta get...

meh, it's a one owner vehicle, so that would never have been recorded anywhere before. we don't get holden to service it either, dad services it himself. so i'm not worried the least about that. how much did you say it cost you, something like $40?

um well yea, the funny thing is that i went to lock it this arve, and it worked. the previous owner mentioned that it was an intermittent problem, so it's just gone away now. i don't know what to make of it, all i did was push the passenger side doors down and press the lock button (that's the...

nice, how many clicks has it done. and how much did your CAI set you back, and is it genuine?

my car sorta dies down a bit when you change gears (reverse to drive, etc.) like what Blakie said. the transmission oil is really low in the dip stick, needs an auto service, but i need a kit to bleed it and all. hows your transmission oil level Blakie?
