Mine just did the same … scanner flagged front left wheel sensor … unplugged and plugged connector at wheel a few times … alarm went away didn’t return

You would think ….but they don’t do that one … same seal/ trim fits vn-Vs wagons… mine has shrunk from all those years in the sun and the gap ruins the look … I’d probably just cut the seal and glue it to the original one if I find one so it fits up flush and there’s no gap

Hi I was wondering if anyone has come across this rubber seal that sits in the valley between glass and panel on a vp or vn wagon tailgate . ive been looking for a long time for anyone making new ones……….i have to buy the complete tailgate to get it secondhand .

I think on some cars the booster is quite close to the drivers side valve cover …4.9 litre 308s have a clearance cutout so it doesn’t touch and installing the booster even means taking the valve cover off. I found the shaft of the booster is actually 14mm in diameter so you know what I did ….cut...

I have a vz with ve calipers on 330 discs but you need an adapter bracket to space it out …I knocked it up from 12mm plate and a 4mm spacer to put the caliper in the middle of the disc .The plate was a dogbone arrangement with 2 sets of 2 12mm holes with 18mm between their centrelines …been...

Hi ..Lex sent me a message about you trying to message me ? cheers Mark

Hi Con , I still have a few parts that make up that toggle module .. I’ll see if I have enough to make a complete one. Cheers Mark

I think the discs I used to fit ve calipers were 330 ish … not 343 as the VE caliper would not let the edges of the pad contact the disc

I found there was a front big brake kit that rda offered as a upgrade kit using ve calipers and ford territory redrilled 330 discs many moons ago and there was a few issues with the dog bone adapters cracking …..I made my own and I used 12mm flat plate and a spacer of 5 or 6mm . I think it was...

Hi With the 315 rear discs problem was that it required the caliper to go towards the outside of the adapter hub so if you used flat steel as a adapter plate I had to cut into the old boltup face to clear the new caliper position as in the pictures….the original hsv caliper bracket that uses the...

This all started after I changed engines so I naturally assumed it was the sender so I just swapped them over but it didn’t change …..thought it musnt have a thermostat then so I checked and it did and it was closed when cold so I assumed it was working still . I found to check the temp sender...

‘’If you are silly enough to take Tridon data as gospel that's fine,but having dealt with VN-VP's for 30 years i'm saying there is differences in the resistance on sender Units that causes the Temp. gauge to barely move,may not be your problem but at least check it out by replacing sender.last...

If you look on the Tridon it lists a gauge sensor TTS062 for all models in my vp range…but changes to TTS064 in vs ..the only other difference is the other sensor that feeds the ecu that changes from TCSO40 to TCS070 on vs Ecotec engines

I have a vp with a v6 engine and have a strange issue with my temp gauge ..it takes a lot to get it moving off cold and it just gets to over 1/4 before I hear the fans cut in . It has a L3 dash and when I had a cooling fan relay issue and fan didnt start and engine temp went up ….the over temp...

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction…tried a few searches and it pointed me to a ad on eBay with the same centre and they are selling it as a vn clubsport and want 1700ish for complete wheel

Anyone know what this is from

We put the old sensor back on and the system worked ..looks like the new sensor had something wrong with it …didn’t have a part number but it was brand new and claimed to be for a vf front sensor .from eBay seller

My sons vf black edition wagon has front parking sensors standard but after he owned it for a while noticed the passenger side front bumper /grille one was damaged and hanging loose on its wiring behind the bumper and no mounting bracket …so we bought the small plastic bracket and fitted it with...

I fitted it to my v6 manual …worked fine as long as you fitted a switch on the clutch pedal in series with the brake switch so it disengaged if you depressed it

The bcm part of the cruise control only is to do with the on/off switch … that is press button on stalk to turn on and press again to turn off … no actual working of the actual cruse itself . many moons ago I made a separate module to cover that part so you didn’t have to change your BCM using...

I just replaced my vzs lower front control arms complete and found the metal part of the inner bush broken ….had no play but car was doing some weird things when it was loaded…suspension is a combination of metal things moving…..and not touching each other only need play or broken somewhere to...

Does he have the headlights you were after too

The black frame on this part?

You can test the bonnet switch with a multimeter on resistance by seeing if there is a closed circuit ( around 0-10 ohms) between the black and purple wires on the switch side after disconnecting the plug and connecting the leads of the multimeter to the lugs on those coloured wires in that...

Anyone ever swap a series two stereo unit for a series one with the envious customs mod cable etc and find everything works when the unit is powered via the key but I found if you want to turn it on without the ignition switch it comes up with “vin not present “and doesn’t output until you turn...

Not to you maybe ………but I use that paint a lot and it was plentiful on the shelf everywhere but it’s disappeared …no massive enquiry …just wondered if anyone knew why .

Has anyone noticed that no popular auto accessory parts supplier in Australia has caliper or engine paint in stock and it been like this before Christmas ….looks like any paint that has ceramic in it to take heat in black silver etc in rattle cans is on the shelf anywhere in popular brands VHT...

You could do both …if you can’t stand the possibility of it going off in the mean time …..you are probably throwing the old one away anyway. Just strip back to bare copper conductors where I’ve coloured it blue in picture …without cutting conductors on purple and black wires and twist around...

As a temp / permanent fix on the wires in previous picture ….just strip back a little of the black and purple wires insulation side by side (don’t cut any wires )on the bonnet switch side so you can twist the bare copper together so there’s a good connection ….tape up and plug the connector...

Yep the final piece in the puzzle …thanks for the interest …I haven’t tried to see if you can get them new but I’ll hit my local wreckers …I’m not sure if they will sell me a couple ..see what happens

I was worried when I did a filter reoil on my vcm cai that those plastic clips might be a challenge but with care it came apart easily and didn’t mark it at all and went back on

I did this conversion on my both my sons cars ve and vf and we just swapped brackets and discs and alloy part of caliper stayed ….interesting cracks in pads though that were changed on the vf

Wierd clip made from spring steel with soft neoprene front so it doesn’t rattle and fits in square hole …the old one broke when screwing up trim …… I was fixing the grab handle coming away from trim because plastic breaks so I had to take doortrim off to fix

On the front doors they are right on the bottom …I only saw three but maybe they are right along around the inner door frame like in your picture where a screw goes into them…they just push in …mine were white where you could see them but they could be any colour

It is made from light gauge spring steel and has a soft white neoprene front part that the phillips head pk screws through and the rear goes through the square hole and forms the thread part ….it fell out when I was putting the door trim back on and there are only 3 per door …you would never...

I wondered if anyone had come across fasteners that work as 3 captive nuts as a spare part that are spring clips with a bit of white neoprene moulded in them that go into square holes in the bottom of the inner steel door panel that hold the door trim on with phillips head screws through them

It’s because they never break down a individual component to parts …modern technology

Just had my sons 2013 v6 sportswagon air con stop working and it was traced down to the compressor clutch. Air con place quoted 1500 for new compressor filter tx and Regas . Watched a few YouTube videos and it looked like the clutch only could be changed out without touching the gas or any...

looks like they use a 6 pin plug but only use 4 wires
