If I leave the car parked up for a few days , when I start it up I get the check engine / stability control warning up . Normally I can turn the car off and remove the keys , then restart and warnings/check light have gone . I normally get away with this 9/10 times but then it wont clear every...

Search the posts for how to paint a holden grill. Found a very good guide before which helped heaps when I decided to paint mine . Should also be a similar type plastic aswell. Tried painting the chevy badge on my series 1 and it looked like crap cause I didn't have a clue . Once I read the...

Poison Ivy touch up paint code =Holden Code 7463 , 9KMKB , first thing I bought when I picked the car up from the dealer.

Go 1 better and call Head office and give them the above stated comment . Due to major issues with my first ve ss as soon as you mention legal responsibility it is amazing how quickly they pool all resourses into solving the problems. If that fails mention current affair in an email and they...

Had the pack installed on my new series 2 and love it . My series 1 had growler cold air + berklee pex mufflers and the sound difference is heaps better (especially in a tunnel when you stick the boot in). Price was $2995 fitted and no complaints .

Anything that helps oncoming twits see you is definately safer. All long distance trips made I ensure lights are on . I am pretty sure that everyone who goes on this forum can remember a time where they have gone to overtake a slower vehicle and at the last minute seen an on-coming one that is...

Power upgrade kit is worth $2995 from walkinshaw stockists . It,s fairly basic in regards to 2.5 inch cat back exhaust , growler cold air induction and tuned to suit. Pretty much what i have already . Priced the super charger and you wont get any change from $16000 + you will need a full exhaust...

Just recieved an email today that my new SS has arrived. Poison Ivy with 19in HSV mags , full leather , overhead DVD for the kids and off to get the Walkinshaw power upgrade kit fitted in the next few days . Cant wait . Was ordered before I even knew what the new model would look like . For all...

Mine came off about a month ago. Only knew since the aircon stopped working. When it came off it snapped a couple of wires . Cars got over 99k on it now so it took awhile .

Bought mine in 06 and before the it went back for its first service i had fitted a growler CAI. Year or so later I changed the exhaust and no one at your lease company needs to know and the dealers have no reason to advise unless your are billing the lease company for the mods. Anything you want...

Mine was doing the same thing a couple of years ago , upon taking it to the dealer they did the same and didn't mess around to much just ordered and fitted a new one. Never had the problem occur again since change out.

Works a treat ! Hit a small bird and it actually broke the 2 tabs on the fog light and pushed the whole light assembly into skidplate void. Definately the easist way to get into it after a bit of trial and error.

Asked my dealer the same questions about CAI and exhausts . Firstly Growler cold air induction kits are used by walkinshaw (just re-badged) so good chance holden wouldn,t/couldn,t void warranty as long as kit and filter are well maintained. As far as the exhaust is concerned I was told cats back...

Shouldn't be CAI since if it was it would have shown up not long after fitting . CAI has been on since 1st service so no problems with it for over 40000k's with it installed. Also filter is cleaned every 5000k's and car is not used on any dirt roads. Other car with same fault has standard...

Dealers trying to resolve but at this stage for both vehicles (both being looked at by different dealers) it will just be a process of elimination and conference calls with tech services . Holden know they need to solve this since if it is going to be a common fault once the 6ltr's start getting...

I wish it was fuel but this problem has been ongoing for every long distance trip I have done in the last 6 months. Symptoms are always the same, ie car runs beautifully for several hours then appears during overtaking , (only time I accelerate heavily ) . Car is a 6ltr V8 (ve) with just over...

After a few hours driving (anywhere from 3-8hrs) car starts to break down and misfire under heavy accelleration . Led to some scary overtaking moments when you expect a certain amount of power to be available which is no longer there. Scenario is usually followed by car shutting down completely...

Had an oil leak after 6 mths which turned out to be from the sump gasket , only minor(NOT). Motor had to be removed and part of the chassis needed cutting open and re-welding. 2 days at the dealers then panel beaters . Not really dealers fault since it was a learning experience for them since...
