    Tube identification

    Hi guys, I was servicing my car when I came across a tube that has split into two. It seems to leak a little bit of oil onto my manifolds but nothing major. I have attached a picture, so if anyone knows the name of the part that would be much help :) Cheers

    Headlight problem

    Hi guys, Got these headlights on my vy and one little annoying issue is the headlights have some kind of yellow marking. Im not sure what to do to get them clear again. Will I ever get them nice again? PS Car came with these headlights so have no idea what it is.... Cheers

    Is it risky?

    And with calling previous mechanics, I feel that can't really determine because the mechanic may just be a close friend/regular mechanic for the seller so can't really trust that advice

    Is it risky?

    Well the car is pretty far so I am just getting some advice from some hard commodore fans before I waste my time..... Car has 170odd kms on her and Ive checked even with HSV that everything matches, just now actually need to check the engine and VIN itself rather than off the rego sticker.

    Is it risky?

    thanks for some tips guys. looking at a car this weekend or some time next week and if all goes well may end up getting her. The real issue though is its a HSV and thats one of the last things I would think an owner would lose...... see how it goes! Some friends have mentioned concerns with...

    Is it risky?

    Is it risky to buy a car without the service history and manuals all lost? How do people even lose such books for a car?

    Creamy yellow glunk on the oil cap?

    Can this cause any damage further down the track? Also is there a chance it could be a blown head gasket?

    Creamy yellow glunk on the oil cap?

    Hey guy, Just went to look at a vs today and saw some kind of residue on the oil cap. It was creamy, yellow and fairly firm in texture. Not sure what it is exactly, but thinking blown head gasket or at the very least cracked. But I always thought that was from a whitish foam. Thanks for...

    Getting deposit back from private sale.

    Even without a receipt you both entered an oral agreement. If worst comes to worst you can take him to court. But as Reaper said just need to remain calm and demand your money back if your not confident buying this car. The owner said he was going to get rego and rwc done for you as you paid...

    What is the ugliest commodore?

    Definitely the series 1 VT's. The series two back lights boost the look dramatically IMO. And then as mentioned above, any commodore that hasn't been looked after just looks horrible. But top of the list would have to be a holden with..... wait for it....... a chevy badge on it! ewww!

    General things to look for when buying a car?

    So basically I'm in search of a new car but not the best at knowing what to look for. Any help would be great so I don't get stuck buying a bomb. The cosmetics of the car isn't much important. Mainly mechanical findings which I might not be aware of. Cheers

    Fact or Myth

    ive heard because it decompresses the compressor when you turn if off before you turn the car off. and if your going to get back into your car 5 minutes later you dont want the compressor fully loaded.

    Fact or Myth

    I've always been told that before i turn off my car its best to turn off the heater/air con. I was just wondering why this is the case and if it actually does make a difference......

    is a standard supercharged engine any good?

    the cops will hear what? im pretty sure a supercharger is fine on your p's, but any performance enhancing mods are illegal in victoria.
  34. J

    is a standard supercharged engine any good?

    only the noise from the supercharger, not a v8 sound. but for a couple hundred you can get an exhaust kit, but you can do that on your stock v6 if your looking for sound.
  35. J

    is a standard supercharged engine any good?

    171kw..... just about the same if not more than a stock v8
