    VF Calais suspension differences

    I paid $51 each but the RRP was $74 around the end of 2020. Some prices you scratch your head but I thought that was a reasonable price. They were purchased through a Holden dealer.

    VF Calais suspension differences

    A while back, I purchased the rear subframe bushes that were VIN locked(dealer parts system) for a Motorsport. Part numbers are 92457827 for the 2 fronts and 92457826 for the 2 rears. They also use these on the Chev SS however, from memory, they were different P/N's to the standard Redline. I...

    Genuine VF HSV wheels at dealer/cost price

    Ordered one wheel( as a spare) almost a month ago now. Has not arrived and it is unlikely it ever will. The tracking number provided with the order confirmation does not work and they have not replied to the 3 emails sent over the last few weeks. I actually phoned HSV/Walkinshaw and left a...

    GM Magnetic Ride Control - Is it any good?

    Allow approx 1500 to 2k rrp (dealer dependant) for each front and approx 700 for each rear. May get better deal if your parts guy likes you. Fairly sure this is dampner only not the complete strut/ shock assembly and would need to confirm but I believe same p/n as chev ss. Be interesting to know...

    Holden Commodore Limited Edition models

    Nice!! Should make it an annual event. Anyway, was great to see these cars being driven as you don't see too many too often and they do stand out on the road, especially en-masse.

    Holden Commodore Limited Edition models

    Couldn't help but notice about 15 LE's on my way to the Moto GP at the Island. They all looked sweet driving along collectively. A few Directors, mostly Motorsports and a few Magnums. I assumed they were headed to the Island. What was the occasion at Lang Lang?

    Holden halts production of Commodore and Equinox

    Off topic a bit but I think Stooge was referring to Macaques. I read somewhere that VW initially wanted to stick humans in a room and make them suck in diesel fumes to prove how harmless their emissions were (we all know the rest of the story) all for marketing purposes. Then someone in VW...

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    All LE's get the box with plate keys etc....Motorsport only gets the Biante model. 62K DA (from a dealer) best I have heard of so far, were a few advertised @ sub 65 DA in the last month or two but not advertised for very long.

    Motorsport rear lip spoiler removal

    Looked into this out of curiosity a while ago. The RRP ex GST price is around 600. Think you need to upgrade gas strut (due to weight addition?).The spoiler kit P/N is 92457817, not seen one out of the box but..... you would be lucky if they came all black and shiny in the box so perhaps up for...

    Hi Tabac, Be interested to know if your car has failed again in the same mode that they applied the fix for in 2015 or weather this is a new failure mode. Please keep us updated. Rgds,

    Holden Commodore Limited Edition models

    Ha Ha I hear you!! I have the same problem with the MSE. I'm making the most of it literally while the sun shines. Over winter it can stay in garage under cover. Just hope I still have a licence by then.:)

    Holden Commodore Limited Edition models

    Yes DD fees.....the most expensive car wash in the world(ok I know that's not all they do). That's great you were in a position to renegotiate the contract and gained a bit extra out of the deal . Unfortunately, I had no leverage as I had already taken vehicle delivery right on the cusp of when...

    Holden Commodore Limited Edition models

    Was not really sure about Spitfire in the MSE (its loud) however, having seen two up close I'm beginning to like it. The red rim band is a nice subtle touch with all the MSE's and although they say red and green should never be seen, in this case it complements (MO). Going back in time, the lime...

    What mods need to be done put a 6l90e into a Vf

    If your referring to the RHD Mustang cash cow then it's not producing like it used to thanks to an ANCAP 2 star rating. Its now a 3 after adding some safety gear (which I read elsewhere they stripped from it for the Aussie market but kept for others) but still had some inherent design issues...

    Holden Commodore Limited Edition models

    At last it appears reality is setting in. At least these guys are smart enough to "meet the market" unlike some of the other dealers still asking 75K plus for the LE's. They clearly don't look on carsales or perhaps they do and are experiencing cogitative dissonance. The specuvesters looking to...

    VF Commodore/Calais Chrome Door Lock Knobs and Handles

    No problem recently purchasing them (those numbers are straight off the packet). If you had no luck with one dealer then suggest try another and then another until you get what you need. Some parts people know their way round the parts system very well and are extremely helpful then others may...

    vf2 cheap factory painted guards

    They were mudguards when I was growing up too. But.....Mudguard is also a nickname for a not too bright bald bloke i.e shinny on top and full of s**t underneath.

    VF Commodore/Calais Chrome Door Lock Knobs and Handles

    "I've checked with Holden spare parts and they don't have a listing for chrome lock knobs/buttons." The chrome knobs are not listed as a separate part number but part of an assembly which includes a rod (which I presume goes to a lock actuator of some sort), Try these part numbers: 92282443...
