    Ve '07 dash rattle.

    Phoned a Holden Service Centre here in Adelaide and was informed of a 12 month warranty only for dash vibration or rattle. Hoping it plays up when during vehicle inspection next week, BUT will refuse to pay mega dollars for an accurate diagnosis and cure. In fact, what are your chances of...

    wheel alignment

    Yes, I've had my VE for around 10 months, changed the front tyres & included an alignment and balance. A few weeks ago, I had the tyres rotated and decided to align and balance again. I was informed that even the smallest pot holes, speed humps or can seriously affect the alignment on VE's.

    Tyres?

    I have just fitted a set of assymetrical Nankang AS1 245/45 R18 (at $219 each) for my Lumina and to expect a 400000k life span when rotated and balanced in 5000k intervals. Good tyre at a great price for the budget conscious VE owner.

    Used VE Advice

    160k is certainly excessive for a VE Commodore. When I bought mine (about 6 weeks ago), it had 29k on the odometer. I thoroughly inspected several VE's before purchasing mine and was put off when I noticed they were all ex-fleet interstate vehicles ranging from 60-90k's. I also noticed that the...

    Tyres?

    Shopped around and searched the web only to find that Nankang appear to be the best 'value for money' performance tyre. I was quoted $219 ea for the NS2 18" compared to Falken @ $300 and Kumho @ $269. The dealer also through in free wheel rotation in 5000k intervals.

    Chrome Exhaust Tip?

    Yes, the final option would be tempting but just a fraction over the budget. Just phoned an exhaust shop who recommended spot welding the tip. Is this a suitable alternative?

    Carpets cut short on VEsv6

    Whilst shopping around for mine, I test drove an '07 Omega (ex fleet vehicle) where the carpet was raised on the RH rear passnger side. Terrible sight for a near new vehicle, then thought how could this happen?

    VE Lumina.

    Hello Guys, I have recently purchased a 07 Lumina and quite satisfied with the vehicle and it's features (upgraded from a VS Acclaim). I would like some feedback from other '07 Lumina or Omega owners on whether they are satisfied with their purchase (new or used) and whether there appear to...
