    has anyone had this happen to there radio clock display

    Yeah same thing happened on mine...only when i started a thread on it no one else had the problem.... First happened on really hot days then one day never came back on. Next service told them bout the problem and they fixed it with a computer reset (not really sure what that is but it worked)

    Another dodgy Holden dealer story- '08 Maloo goes into limp mode every 200Klm's

    ah, i can see how that would become annoying....do all VE's have this?

    what do ppl think for my Silver SV6 in leather. red or black.

    Definitely red....black is sooo boring! (IMO obviously) But which one do you like? Your the one driving it. People screw their faces up at the interior in our car but it doesn't matter because we love it

    Reverse lights when unlocked

    My in-law noticed this exact same thing last night.....i had never thought about it before, because to me they are just lights so you can see where you are going if the motor isn't running who cares if its brake/reverse/hazard/disco lights on, they are there to help you get in the house without...

    Why Chevy badges on SS's (not a trolling topic please read)

    What truth? As far as I was aware Chevrolet haven't produced a motor in years......GM Powerplants I think (as said before cbf going into full blown research this time of night)

    Woodys SSV

    your all spot on, it would look ten times better if it was lowered but i find the FE2 suspension to be a lot better than other commodores I have owned also I just bought a vx wagon and some numpty has put shorter springs in it to make it noticeably lower and that thing bounces down the road...

    22s, super super low in the back super low in the front

    Hey mate I have 20's on mine with stock suspension....but that's just my personal preference Iv also always thought that lowering a car with just a set of springs is a good way to guarantee serious problems with other components in the suspension/drive-train in the future. If a car was meant to...

    To all VE SS owners!!!

    SSV Oil Pressure/ Voltage Gauges Stopped Working

    Haha i know what you mean, i think they are pretty ugly....if i had the money i would put in the three gauges like in the HSV's, but dont know if i would be able to get them in orange to match the rest of the gauges

    SSV Oil Pressure/ Voltage Gauges Stopped Working

    Thanks for all the replies guys, to answer the question asked, mine (when it was working) would sit at around 3 when cruising but drop to around 1 or 2 when at idle....goes up a bit when you put the foot down. RayLamp, i too thought this would be the case because the audio screen would flicker...

    Having trouble deciding on what to upgrade to..

    Had a v6, now have a v8, would never go back.... You could just wait til you can get a secondhand SSV or Calais v8 series II in your price range?

    SSV vs E63 AMG ..

    Ennis Av in WA drops to 80kph for a set of lights then once through the lights there is a 100kph sign within 10 metres. I don't see the problem in seeing who can accelerate to 100 quicker, there isn't any footpath or houses around. Is there a law against this? What are your opinions?

    Lowering Loophole??

    would be interesting to hear if anyone else has had a lowered car through assessors and had no problems? only reason why im so cautious is our VY (stock) was written off December last year and the insurance company paid out within weeks no questions asked, so i know what can happen and how...

    Lowering Loophole??

    Thanks UFO, definately wont be voiding my insurance, would hate to continue paying off a car thats been written off and not replaced. I guess other owners think it wont happen to them or just don't care

    Lowering Loophole??

    Hey all, just got 20's on the SSV and now i want to get them sitting in the guard a bit better. Recently i found out that to keep it legal i can only lower the car by 20mm. Just wondering if there is a loophole i havent seen yet ie. engineers certificate, to keep the car legal while sitting...

    Whats The Legal Size Limit I Can Get In Rims?

    Where abouts did you get this information from, and could you verify point 6 please. To me it says you cant change your rim size at all just your tyre size. Just researching to put 20's on a VE in WA

    Removing rear seat to reclip leather

    Just wondering if anyone has ever had any problems with the clips on the underside of the rear seat unclipping from the leather upholstery. The four centre ones have come undone, i suspect it happened when the rear seat was removed when the tint was put on but we have only just noticed it...
