+1 for the Actuator... Had exact problem after 18 month VE Calais 07. Learninging does nothing.

Hi All, Me and my family are going away tomorrow morning (boxing day at 9am) to Snowy River National Park to camp for a few days I forgot that my brothers car doesnt have a spare Tyre as he hasn't yet got it fixed it wouldn't be a problem because I could just use my spare in case his car was...

Merry Christmas All :) My 131,000km SSV ute auto box is starting to play funny... When its changing gears in [D] it revs up between gears, in the past it used to this anyway but lately its extremely noticeable not just that it also is becoming more rough in the shifts going into the next gear...

WM v6 really that bad? I had a Calais v6 VE and it seemed fine even though WM is a little heavier is it really that bad? I already have a VE SS getting the WM for long trips and to save fuel vs the SS.

I don't mean to troll.. But it has to be said. Alternator (electrical related, very clearly..) your removing it - battery should of definitely been the number 1 thing here. Hopefully nothing to major.. and if you do manage to find the problem post up so we all know what fuse it was :) Hope...

Hi, I'm buying a daily driver.. problem is I cant decide between getting a WL Caprice or a WM Statesman. I get the WM is 4th gen body design and WL is 3rd gen body design etc but they arent my problem questions. Both will be V6 and from what I can see they both have similar...

Today we accidentally had a family member roll down our driveway hill and hit my ute rear bar, I would say its probably cheaper to find a bar and replace? Its red and its only damaged the plastic bar and pushed it off the clips down the side ive put it all back in so really I just need to...

DESCRIPTION: Wanted to Buy - Urgent ITEM: VT/VX Bonnet dark navy blue metallic color, VT Left Passenger Side Headlight, VT Front Reinforcement Bar LOCATION: Vic CONDITION: New or Used DELIVERY/PICK UP INFORMATION: Victoria within 75km's from CBD may go further for good price...

Gonna get straight to the point; Thought I'd take the old VT for a drive, around Melbourne yesterday did around 200km's in the day she has been used every 1 week or sometimes longest 2 weeks or so for the last 6 month. Last night VT on the way home jolted a a few times then engine stalled...

Also which reminds me, I have a scantool I paid around $130 for about 6 month ago, I'm saving to buy a GM Tech2 with Australian Holden Card for about 4k so if anyone wants to buy my scantool happy to let it go for a good price.

No worries, please share what you find!

I noticed your in Melb if you want me to check logged error codes, if your local I'll drop by and check codes might shead more light on the situation :) otherwise hopefully goods news from mechanics.

It will do for now, thanks for the 'cheap' tip. I don't know for the moneys worth even if I could save it up from extra overtime hours or less spending I'd much rather put that cash towards the loan to reduce the length of the loan. If the ute still is good in its km's its travelled then I might...

Went down to bunnings today, got a few washers tried a few different configurations in the end I thought it was just a waste of time until I tried the following configuration; I had an 8mm gap with the gasket in the middle of the washers, was happy with it driving around for 10 minutes or so...

Hey Guys, I recently brought SSV 08 Ute, I used to drive a hire car for my company which was an MY10 SS Wagon when I was in Sydney for work and loved the stock loudness of the system, but the Ute I just got has put me in a disappointed feel in the stock exhaust system I cant imagine there be...

Whatever Holden charge you for the updated disc let me know I can do a better price on them, they are genuine too 100%.

Hi Guys, Put a deposit down on a 03/2008 VE SSV Ute today should be seeing it early sometime next week. Despite the fact I've already signed sale contract I'm curious to know a few things. Any common problems seen with these close to the 110k of its life? (I did do a bit of a search but...

Hi Guys, My driver side power window stopped working (it will go down but not up any more) I assume the switch has problems though. Have a window now stuck open wondering if anyone knows which color wires I need to cross that go into the switch module to send signal to set the window up so it...

Guys, Been away along time sorry - I worked out how to fix it. Scantool see whats triggering it and just solve that problem. My friend also had same issue and we solved it, issues where differant mine was oil pressure sensor and his was due too a combination of low tread on front left wheel and...

Curious, as I have been looking for awhile to buy one as a daily driver but cant find one decently priced.

To bad your in WA then lol.

Oh, lol forgot to mention that - i had it looked at today by Ultratune. They said that I've broken the inside of the center muffler which is welded stright to the dual 2.5" stainless steel pipes - this is actually the place thats offering to sell me the replacement stock system for $200 as they...

It's called Finance or Lease and in most cases, when someone as young as 18/19 are getting one of these its likely they haven't though of better ways to invest their $650 a month over 5 years than on a car that will depreciate over the 5 years with the loss of $12,000 in interest accumulation...

ok, i found I can get a whole stock exhaust system from cat to mufflers for $200 - but its off a ute/wagon because its slightly longer. if i get the pipes shortened should this be fine?

So anyway, here we are driving through the underground parking lot in Southland when we here strange noise (like we hit something under the car) but there was in fact nothing because I looked back as we drove off parked the car and went shopping. Came back drove off, and when back onto the road...

Reviving this thread... I've had my VE A5 Calais transmissions serviced at $150, but where I used to get it done I cant go there anymore because its too far for me. Ultra tune suggested $250 to have it done. Pain in the ass, as I try to keep mine changed every 40,000km. If anyone knows anywhere...
