    SRS Diagnostic Tool (ALDL) - VT,VX,VY,VZ

    Very easy to use this program! Literally plug and play once you've installed the driver for the cable. Look forward to the cluster software :)

    VZ accessory switches

    Definetly not the case with traction control because every time you start the car you need to switch it off if you don't want it on. Easiest way to find out is to crack out the multimeter.

    VZ accessory switches

    The front park assist button is still a momentary switch. Has a LED in it which lights up when active and they come in black or grey. Hazard switch is the only one that I know of that holds in and as mentioned takes up two spots.

    VY - VZ Bodykit

    VZ lights don't quite fit properly with a VY bonnet and bar. Best to do the lot instead of having it look half arsed.

    Di Filippo make a heat shield that bolts onto the steering rack bolts to cover the rack boot for a solid fix.

    [VIC] For Sale: Vt-VZ AP Racing 4 spot F/R brakes and VT type Monaro Head lights

    Fair enough, a reply via pm would have been sufficient. Bold red capital letters was a bit over the top. Maybe you should write the price is firm then you won't get people making offers. It was a realistic offer and I didn't mean to offend you. Cheers.

    VZ Berlina Front Bumper

    there different mate holes are alot smaller on exec. VZ Berlina is the same as SVZ and Lumina, thats it.

    gauges on a vz calais ???

    you need to modify it to fit or get the monaro facia which has the proper holes for it to clip in.

    gauges on a vz calais ???

    ebay is your best bet. get the black monaro ones to match the instrument cluster. they light up white the same as the speedo etc. ive got them fitted to mine.

    vs hsv ss driving lights not working

    at least you got it sorted. i would be replacing that switch.

    vs hsv ss driving lights not working

    when you checked for power at the plug did you run one cable of the multimeter to earth and one to the plug? if you tested the wires by running both multimeter cables to the plug and then flipping the pos and neg cables around its going to look like you have 12v at both wires. sounds to me like...

    [Brisbane] Where to get callipers painted

    a spray painter/powder coater isn't a mechanic. so i wouldn't trust them playing with your brakes either... leave the calipers on the car, clean them with brake cleaner and then mask up around them. once you've done that, give them a few coats with some enamel paint. the best way is definitely...

    Vy Calais General Enquires

    the headlight is like that so you can see the curb/footpath better when driving at night.

    My VZ CALAIS!!!

    yeah got the cheetahs, my guards are rolled already. maybe down the track ill buy some 9.5's and see how i go. mine is usually lowered on ultralows on the rear so would probably have to raise it.

    VY SS Issues

    when the battery light is on and the car is running, check the voltage at the battery. if its around 12V its not charging the system properly.

    Help a noob out. LOL

    that is correct. as others have said its a trigger wire to turn the amplifier on and off. the wire should be labeled on your head unit as well.

    should i change pads as well

    what brand of rotors and pads did you buy? they should last alot longer than 5000kms. have you done any high speed hard braking to warp them so quick? you shouldn't need to change the pads, just get the discs machined if they are not that old.

    My VZ CALAIS!!!

    Car is looking sweet mate! do you have any issues with the 9.5's rubbing on the rear? ive got similar rims on mine but i was soft and went 8.5's all round. mine is fairly low tho, is yours FE2 height?

    Illumination for audio buttons on steering wheel

    clock spring and the buttons i am 100% sure on. you could confirm by calling holden and getting the part number for a calais clock spring and a berlina one. the wiring part is only what ive been told by someone who has had theirs modified by a friend of theirs so its second hand info. like i...

    fog light help

    congrats on the purchase, all you need to do is pull the headlight switch knob towards you and they will come on. you will see the fog light symbol printed on the knob up the top and the same symbol will illuminate green on your dash.

    Illumination for audio buttons on steering wheel

    VZ berlina have the wiring provision for illuminating stereo controls in the clock spring already. i've looked into this a bit and have found you will need the calais black buttons which have the LEDs behind each button and must be from VZ as VY is different plugs. you can then change the button...

    VZ interior lights not working???

    check the connection at the drivers pillar. there is a plug there which connects the roof wiring to the body wiring. i think its going to be a case of tracing the wires and checking for power. a wiring loom location diagram would come in handy here.

    Replacing 4-spd trans with 5-spd

    it would be possible. would need the wiring, switchs etc from a calais to do it all tho. wouldn't be a cheap exercise id imagine.

    Vy seat to vt wiring

    The thin black with white stripe is only for the seat belt warning chime on VY-VZ. nothing needs to be hooked up to it on VT. All you need is the power wires, Red and Black.

    VY Handbrake Adjustment

    yeah unfortunately the proper way is to take the rear wheels off. get a mate to pull the handbrake when you adjust each side evenly a full rotation. don't go to tight because you might start to get the whooshing noise while your driving from the rear.

    Head Deck

    Daz88p - yeah mate there Venetians. only have them in occasionally cause they rattle like a mofo. commie - there the VZ monaro gauges. ive got an ipod jack on my setup too. if you look very closely you can see the white plug underneath the useless flap under the stereo. tucks away when not in use.

    Head Deck

    They don't look out of place if that's what your worried about.

    Is the SV6 the way to go?

    VZ calais is an awesome car. if your only getting an auto i would definitely get the calais. so many more features than the SV6. if you get a non R8 HSV they are reasonably priced but insurance for any HSV is not cheap.
