    vt interior lighting issues.

    Check all the fuses under the steering wheel for a blown fuse. Simplest way to find the fuse. Fuse order is listed in the vehicle manual and on the plastic swing door of the fuse compartment under the steering wheel. Also make sure you havn't unscrewed the earth in the main roof mount light...

    Well with a thread topic like yours and the paragraph you wrote I can't blame anyone for not answering you. It is a little hard to work out exactly what bolts you are talking about and as to what state it is stuck. Only advice I have for you is try freeze release in a can. Spray on threads of...

    [VT-VX] VS - VY Series 2 Inlet Manifold Gasket Replacement 6hr+ (Includes Pics)

    Well it's been three years since I did this. Still no issues, no leaks. Mace product is good quality. I see a few people are now doing this, must be the life span of the VT/VX/VY gaskets.

    The New Commodore VFII is Coming

    They are driver aids, not replacements. Plenty of other vehicles in the market have this technology, especially active cruise control (radar).

    VF Random chat thread

    Paddle shifts for VF SSV Redline from My 15 range and beyond. Also Craig Lowndes edition gets paddles too. Holden are keeping their best til last. Annoying for people in the market for new now.

    What deal did you get on a VF?

    Series 2 won't be here until end of 2015 at earliest or start of 2016. Can you wait a year at minimum?

    isszy's SV6 Manual

    Really nice combo on the SV6. The stripes on the side suit the colour and are just the right size. Wheels look great. Hopefully it didn't cost more then a SS.

    Bathurst 1000 9th October to 12 October live stream where?

    I must say this years Bathurst 1000 was the best I've seen in years if not the best. It had crashes galore, drama, a suspended race (only 3rd time in Bathurst history), records broken time and time again, a footy on the track and to top it off an action packed last lap with Whincup running outta...

    Holden 100hr Sale starts Sept 12

    I just went to the Holden website. There's a pop up. Enter your details for $1000 off a new SV6, off the best negotiated price. Seems a decent offer. Probably disappear before the 12th thou so it doesn't conflict with this other promotion.

    Hi all just found an online ad advertising a 100 hr sale for Holden beginning Sept 12. Includes: 5 yr warrant, 5 yr road side assist, 3 yr free service, huge factory bonus? Does anyone know what is the huge factory bonus? My guess is auto for manual price. Cheers.

    [VT-VX] VS - VY Series 2 Inlet Manifold Gasket Replacement 6hr+ (Includes Pics)

    It depends on how much of a clean job you want to do. If you want to do it all at once I would suggest this: - New plenum gasket which sits between the plenum lid and plenum (Rubber seal, costs about $30 genuine) - New rocker cover gasket (Rubber seal, costs about $19 a side genuine) - Inlet...

    Holden closing down Factory 2016 - 2018

    No Cookies | thetelegraph.com.au Looks like it's coming to an end. Government doesn't want to give anymore cash away, Holden GM saying they can't justify manufacturing without more cash.

    Kenwood DDX7039 DVD Player crached screen, Rockford Fosgate issues

    StoneX does this look repairable? I am thinking maybe not as part of the LCD screen is showing a black line. Kenwood want to see the unit before quotation. I am thinking maybe it's time for another HU. Pictures added to original posting.

    Kenwood DDX7039 DVD Player crached screen, Rockford Fosgate issues

    Thanks for that. I've already been to an audio store. They said needs to obviously be sent to Kenwood for repairs. They said $99 bucks to send it none refundable with no guarantee they would be able to fix it. Repair cost on top of the $99. Considering the unit is now 4 yrs old it's not worth it...

    2013 VF Redline vs 2013 BMW 335i Coupe

    Nice comments. If only the rest of Australia felt the same way, then Holden would be around a lot longer and still making cars into the distant future. Good to see the Holden stacked up against German Engineering.

    2001 Commodore VX Series II S

    Very good point. To do a lower job correctly you need shortened shocks front and back. I've got them on mine. Also you may wish to consider a camber kit for the rears to make them sit straighter. 2 or 4 point camber kit will do the job.

    2001 Commodore VX Series II S

    Mate in my opinion you wouldn't want to go any lower the SL. Even maybe just Lows. Sydney Roads are terrible, any lower and you will encounter problems like scrubbing of the tyres, hitting the bottom of the car on speed humps and badly designed drive ways etc.

The valleys were coolant runs through are never in contact with gasket maker silicon so no worries. It's how the...

    VX Blown Head Gasket or Inlet Manifold?

    The white smoke in tail pipe is concerning. I created a how to a while ago regarding inlet manifold gasket replacement.

    So the VF is this what the front and back look like ?

    Rear lights styled after the GM Malibu. Yuck. So who wants to know what it will look like. I am guessing this. 2014 Chevrolet SS (artist's rendering) photo

    Perhaps a radiator flush ASAP will be in order. Muddy water?? what do you mean?? Is there oil in the Radiator fluid?? Is it a orange tinge like Rust or Muddy like Oil and Water mixed??? If so you could have some problems with a inlet manifold gasket leak or worse, Trans fluid leaking into...

    As important as you want it to be. If you drop something into the engine and cant retrieve it very important. Better to be safe then sorry.

    Can't remove driver side rocker cover. And are they meant to be out of shape?

    From memory it will get caught against brake lines and coil leads.

    Can't remove driver side rocker cover. And are they meant to be out of shape?

    sometime the bolts will still grab on the thread. make sure u have undone all of them completely. Even when you think you have undone them they sometimes are still grabbing onto the thread. Also the rocker covers have a little lip on them which maybe grabbing onto the engine block. You can tilt...

    [VT-VX] How to fix broken fuel door.

    Nice right up. I think the more common problem with the fuel lids staying open is the little plastic tab that moves in and out that jams and stays in, not catching on the fuel lid. If you have a fix for this let us know.

Also check the ground screw that holds the dome to the roof it may have come loose as well. Also check the plug which sits on the floor near drivers side pillar...
