    VF SSVR windscreen rattle/squeaks

    Yep spot on. I found the noise very difficult to pinpoint. Initially thought it was coming from bottom of windscreen/dash area. However pushing with pressure on top drivers side screen from the inside would also create the creaking noise. No noise when wet either. Definitely sounds like you...

    Vf series 2 moulded boot liner

    I owned a Jul 2013 VF sv6 sedan and now a Feb 2017 VF2 Redline sedan and neither vehicle had any tie down points on the floor.

    [Safety Recall] Electric Power Steering — MY2014 to MY2016 Holden & HSV, VF Commodore & WN Caprice

    It would be worthwhile cross checking your VIN against both the VIN list.xlsx and the myGM.com website if your car is not on the VIN list file. I just searched for a MY14 commodore I previously owned on both (copy and pasted to make sure the numbers were exactly the same) and the GM site...

    VFII Bimodal Exhaust maintenance

    Yes. I believe it is more a case of the flaps defaulting to open when the engine is turned off/no battery power and then having to shut again as the engine is started. There is a brief period when the flaps are still open when the car starts.

    VFII Bimodal Exhaust maintenance

    I am pretty sure that the bimodel system works in a similar manner in both normal and sport modes (eg closed under 3000 rpm/light throttle application). It is just the transmission that works differently.

    VFII Bimodal Exhaust maintenance

    Turning the bimodal off in settings will keep the flap closed at all times while driving whereas pulling the fuse will leave the flap open at all times.

    whats the best wheel cleaner

    +1 for Bowden’s Own Wheely Clean. Best I have used on my redline wheels and brembo calipers. I believe there were some issues with certain calipers being affected. From what I have read the problem seemed to relate to calipers without clear coat applied (eg certain HSV calipers) and/or...

    VF SSVR windscreen rattle/squeaks

    Mine started basically the same way. First noticed the sound after the car had been left outside in the sun. There was no noise if the car had been parked out of the sun but eventually the noise wes there continuously regardless of sun or shade. Rain/water on the windscreen stopped the noise...

    VF SSVR windscreen rattle/squeaks

    Mine was fixed by Robina Holden on the Gold Coast. I know they had a number of other vehicles they were looking at with the same issue when I took mine in. Not in VIC but at least they should be able to make contact with this dealer to confirm the fix. Although with dealer service like that I...

    VF SSVR windscreen rattle/squeaks

    I think WalshySSVR had some info that could help. There is a copy of the invoice attached to that reply earlier in the thread.

    VF SSVR windscreen rattle/squeaks

    Mine sounded like two pieces of plastic slightly rubbing back and forth against each other as you drove along pretty much any type of uneven road, particularly at speeds below 60kmph. It was difficult to pinpoint where the sound was coming from exactly (basically sounded to me like is was...

    VF SSVR windscreen rattle/squeaks

    No further update from the dealer to date. To be honest the silicon seems to have completely fixed this issue on my car (see my recent post above) so I haven’t had a need to follow up at this point. I will see if the dealer has any further info the next time I take the car in, however looking...

    VF SSVR windscreen rattle/squeaks

    I had the same issue and could create the flex/creaking noise by pushing on both the top inside and outside of the windscreen (needed to be a solid push). Holden had the windscreen removed and resealed, however this only fixed the issue by around 50%. The silicon fix noted earlier appears to...

    VF SSVR windscreen rattle/squeaks

    Glad to hear your fix is still ok. I know how annoying this noise can be, especially on a new car. Interesting that the dealer gave me the impression the issue was a plastic seal that was completely separate from the top rubber seal of the windscreen. I might try the silicon option myself...

    VF SSVR windscreen rattle/squeaks

    Hi All First time poster here. I had the exact same problem with a windscreen rattle that started around 7,000 kms in my Feb 2017 Redline. I could also recreate the noise by pushing on the top inside or outside of the windscreen. I had it looked at recently during the 15k service. The dealer...
