Much appreciated, thank you.

Hi all, Seems I'm up for a new fuel pump, can anyone tell me if they're interchangeable with other model Commodores. Because it's a ute the tank is completely different to a sedan and is there an flow difference between V6 & V8, thanks.

Hi, I need to reassemble the steering lock (not ignition barrell) and refit into the column in my VU ute, has anyone got a parts breakdown drawing or detailed lock reassembly instructions ? thanks.

Hi, can anyone help me,I have been offered an exhaust system from an Adventra VY and need to know if it will fit my Wagon VY are the floor pans the same ? thanks.

Hi All, I have a VU ute with tired seats,I can lay my hands on some VY SS sedan front seats in mint condition. Can anyone tell me if they will bolt straight in with no mods ? thanks.

Hi,thanks for your reply the engine has not been touched at 190 kms,I got it at 110kms. I was thinking that a gearbox removal is whats needed.It started leaking oil some time ago not much so not a problem,then leaking coolant water (a much bigger problem)

Yay (grumpy look on face) thought as much,I knew the rear main had a slight leak all at 190k kms ! now a coolant leak . . .

Hi to all the faithfull ! My v6 ecotech is dripping coolant water from where you would normaly see a rear main oil seal leak ! my question is where could it be from. Are there any frost plugs at the rear of the engine block ? I have had a good look and nothing is visible externaly at the...

I would like to assume so too,but when I assume things it makes an ass out of u and me ! I have converted the front windows only, to electric. This is on a VX sedan and I currently use the standard four switch panel,what I want to do is replace it with the VU ute two switch panel.

Hi, can anyone tell me if the master electric window switch for both the VU ute and VX sedan have the same type plug in the bottom ? thanks.

I have just noticed that the power/economy switch just springs up and down and wont click and lock down,also the dash light is not showing,is the switch stuffed ? thanks.

I recently converted my VX exe to power windows the master plug was already in the center consul it had the low level BCM this would not allow the drivers window to operate - solution there are two wires that come off the r/f rocker switch they alternate between + & - to drive the window...

I believe the calais stereo system has amplified speakers and by cutting the wires you may well have shorted the system out.The best thing to do from here is to remove the glove box and the side panel on the rhs of the passenger foot well,you will see a loom poking out from there this is the...
