Thankyou for you reply and help, I was afraid that would be the problem, it has got worse not the interior has heated up with summer. Any ideas on who might me able to repair in the victoria?

I have a VY series 1 s pak ute. Although all the temp, revs speedo and fuel guage work, the display works only sometimes. If I hit the top of the dash hard enough it sometimes starts to work, or all items are displayed in the panel. I have also had it freeze on me and hit and comes good. I...

Steve, This car was a repairable write off, rather than a stat write off, be very carefull and check the car against the register before purchase. A stat write off can never be re-registered I understand in victoria. Yes it was worth in the long run, but not counting labour time. I...

Jeffro74 Thought you might like to see the finished product. All good now airbag replacement went like a treat. Regards matt

Slundy, I think you should re-read the post from Scott B as he is totally correct. The VT-VE handbrake is a prick of a thing at the best of times and very delicate. They are basically a horseshoe with a very small pad area inside the disc. They are not like a old Nissan, ford etc where by...

Some Pictures of the Car

Jeffro, Bags have gone off so I have a lot off work a head of hence the need for the manual. Thanks for the advice Matt

Jeffro, What dose this special tool look like and do?? Is it something that can be made? Did you have to replace steering wheel, seat belts, seat runners etc?? Fekason, I would need the chapter on the dash airbag removal and instalation. How many pages is the actual manual? If...

Be carefull the type of pad and rotor combination you put on. Too hard a bad and they will warp the disc again very quickly. Try to run softer pads if you can, and the softer pads can help take out some of the run out in the disc.

Fekason, Are these Cd's able to be copied?? Is the CD you own a copy? If so, would you prepared to send me a copy in exchange for cash? The gregory's manual just don't have enough information for what Im doing. Regards Matt

Dose anybody have a copy of the CD manual for the VY that I can buy? In particular I need information on replacing the Airbags dash pad etc and precausions when re-connecting everything Regards Matthew

Looking at fowles at moment, and wreakers. Just thought somebody might know somebody etc.

Wanted: Complete VY commodore front, minus engine. Would prefer cut through floor at handbrake and through pillars, to include dash with twin airbags. Complete car would also be considered. Regards Matthew

Thanks very much. The reflector makes sense as the exec have them in bar, where as berlina calais don't. Currently converting my vt acclaim to vx berlina front and rear

What is the difference between vx standard lights and vx calais/berlina tailights? do the calais lights have the brake and indicator only?

Mate, Are the headlights still avalible? email me at [email protected] if you still have them Matt

A freind of mine told me that when he went to insure his manual VL they asked him if it was a executive or a sl, he said exec, to which she replied it can't be as it manual, all executives where auto.Is this true? If so, is this also true for the VK? Matt

As the launch of the new VE commodore gets closer, can you put up a new section for spy pics, information etc for the VE commodore? Heres what i've found so far http://spyphotos.autoblog.com/entry/1234000947056960 http://spyphotos.autoblog.com/entry/1234000293056962/ But im sure...

Well maybe we can turn this thread into a good quality list of aftermarket suppliers, and known wreakers that do have some NOS parts avaliable. I have found some parts from Holden, it really depends on the spare parts guy/girl you get sometimes. Also a wreaker in Melbourne called Holdent...

Im after NOS parts to finish my work in progress. What have you got?

I thought all VH SS where 253? Any comments...

Thanks for the pics, I guess yours is a calais? Mine only has 4 connectors from the fuse box, guess the last one is for the electric windows etc???

Dose anybody have a nice pic of how the wiring sits out of the bottom of the fuse box? Ive had all mine out and just need a refence how it should look again. Any help would be appreciated Matt

Please have a look at this site http://www.deh.gov.au/atmosphere/ethanol/publications/2000hours-vehicle-fleet/materials-2.html Do you want ethanol in our fuel? I believe the government are doing a study on 10% content, how long before this the norm?

Can any body help? Putting together 308 and putting the bridges onto the rockers. Have noticed they have a arrow on them, what way should this face, towards the spark plugs or towards the cam. Any help would be appreciated Matt

I have Tri/Aussie 4 speed 308. Was woundering if the Hi-torque starters from VS-VT Turbo bolt patten will fit up to mine ok. If not, is a Hi - torque starter avaliable for these earlier models. Matt

http://www.pitstop.net.au/pitstop/page/marques_holden/3422.html dose this appear to be the manual that you have? Do you also have the vb part? Matt

I have now got VK commodore parts catalogue text and illustrations. PN M39103 and M39479A. I recieved a illustration of the heater box from a forum. It has 2A-12 Ventilation & Heating as the title for the page. It describes the vacum lines, their lengths, bolt size etc and descriptions...

I am currently chasing some parts genuine holden parts, any help would be appreciated. LH Headlight RH Headlight LH Executive Taillight LH Mirror, Later Style RH Mirror, Later Style 2 x Bonnet Grills Genuine GM Head Gaskets to suit 308 V8

Thanks, I'll try Holden see if they have NOS items. No wreaker Ive rang has the middle piece. Have found they have a lot of parts still avaliable still. Didn't know the vb-h drew its air from a different spot.

Thanks for your help. I think think it will be a rare thing, tried a few wreakers already. If anybody has a standard box and controls in vic and want to sell or upgrade to air, let me know, have a few parts that could help. And don't go to rare spares in wodonga!

Are all VK's fitted with air con? A guy at a rare spares tried to tell me that all VK's had air although the one ive got had hole saw marks in the firewall, and another shell I have has a factory look about it. I want to get rid of the air, no longer required and the holes are already...
