you guys freakin' rock. I havent seen this kind of 'wave' since i used ride a motorbike. And its true about Logan, I have been pulled over more times in my bog stock old man VP that now i tell em, "you better be this efficient when my car gets stolen!"

confirmation from me! My box lasted for about 6months with no 3rd, but still would go into overdrive, then i lost that and only had 1st and second for about another 3 months, then i replaced it. Damn those boxes have a long second!

you can get some funny noises from a ****ty idler pulley, or maybe just get a block of soap and rub it (carefully obviously) on the belt and the pulleys...

dude hook up the relay to a switched bit, you know like the accessories, then it will only work when u want!. And yes the odo is always on, lol i read that in the gregorys so it must be true!

where do you live dude? You can buy brand new aftermarket radiators from the local wreckers here in brisbane southside. I know, cos i had a leak in the side tank where the fan attaches. Now 1 year later no problems. BUT LET ME WARN YOU. I see some aftermarket radiatiors that are almost 1cm less...

cant you just use a paper clip and read the flashing engine light for the codes like it says in the gregorys?

its true!!! i drove to loganholme tody, and bought a cog for $11 Colin

I changed my auto tranny over recently. Now the new (read second hand) one makes a tapping sound in first and second, only under load. The noise isnt apparent in 3rd or overdrive. A mate suggested some kind of piston in the tranny that can 'rattle'. It would sound like a big end noise, but its...

if the thermostat is stuck closed the car will overheat just idling in the drive, if the thermostat is taken out the car will overheat eventually because there is no restriction to the coolant flow, and the radiator cant transfer enough air unless your thermostat is correctly functioning. Also...

I can't pick up my auto tranny!! Seems this is another reason for a manual conversion!

how much for an ounce of whatever got u THERE?

oh and ur not just trying to break into commodores of course?

LMFAO, thats gold

maybe the airbags are loose?

wow its not just me, i thought the car runs better on BP ultimate

maybe he just takes longer breaths than you?

there is a speed sensor in the transmission, my vp did the same thing, first i tried tightening it, but in the end unscrewing the sender and replacing it was the answer. no idea on price i had a spare car to take bits from.

i take the evil spirits from you my brother, "HEAL HIM I SAY". or, come back to us annekin, you dont need to become vader.

will check the clips in the morning, but i have one in the spare vp, is calais different to exec for that bit?

Same here with my children and I, but this thread has just terrified me that all my nightmares are true. Does this make me having children a totally selfish act if there is no hope that 'good' and the 'right thing' will prevail. My most consistent critisism as a father to my children is that...

"what expendable mean......" maybe he goes to iraq and brings home the oil?

LMFAO i had to think about it for ages, stupid censorship, then i realised it was a co ckatoo! I hit a roo (750meters from my 200km destination according to TomTom), i got out of the car dreading the damage i was gonna see to my beloved VP, but all it did was break my wheel trim (you know the...

oops wrong thread

the VP manual shows another two fuses as additional pwr sources as well as pwr via starter relay, so was it a fuse?

woo hoo im not the only one with a randomly recurring oil light warning, after washing the engine. heheh

are you sure you're talking about reading the ecm fault codes?

$166 each mount for a VP, really?

is the link from the handle to the lock fitted?

i reckon its the linkage from the shifter to the box not adjusted correctly?

it seems when the computer learns to run **** again it would be injector related to me? Where are you, i have a cable and a laptop you can find out more clues that way.

not engine mounts sagged? (they rest on the bolt than runs thru them and it can make strange noises)

you bastard, i clicked on the thumbnails cause it looked like a sweet pic of a rollcage in a sleeper, but then i see the 'rollcage' is just reflections of the lights, and yucky poo how could someone do that to a VP. The same colour as mine too!

where ru knucklehead?

the immobilizer is the bit that the remote talks to

how do you pull out the headrests, mine stop at the end of the travel, whats the trick please?

my nick says it all really!

Have I missed the post for a standard V6 (VP) data output? I would really like to compare my apples with apples and not oranges!

Security was second to asthetics im afraid! (I think it looks good)

hows it all going, is the list getting smaller?
