    How is your VZ going so far?

    After owning my VZ sv6 for 3ish years here is what I can tell you: - I like it, have liked owning it and have enjoyed it for what it is but wouldn't ever own another, whether v6/v8 or Z HSV. - Build quality overall is kind of crap, interior plastics/rattles/squeaks just cheapen the overall...

    VZ SV6 '04 - Transmission Problems

    Yep the reverse problem is pretty widespread in these type of transmission, just google 5L40E reverse and you'll see what i mean, happened to a heap of BMW's too, whoever thought of 'sealed' transmissions should be shot, this is coming from someone who spent $4200 for a full recondition, at 80k...

    vz speedo reads way too fast

    ahh the needle my bad, it may have been bumped then if someone was mucking around with the speedo, best thing to do then is to take the cluster front plastic off, wind the needle back slightly, put the car in engineering mode and zero the needles, see how close it is to 100 then repeat until spot on

    vz computer options

    you lose half the functions when you change from the stock headunit, you can put the unit back in and change settings, then remove it, alternatively take it to holden and have it reflashed and you can regain them (this costs $)

    Financing high powered vehicle

    your 3 years into a loan, in which the interest is precalculated from the start, and you are now going to refinance that value for another period of time, with interest being charged ontop of that interest, i hope you can see how this is illogical and a classic debt trap, if you cant then enjoy...

    Financing high powered vehicle

    the security is the car, in my opinion i'd steer clear of financing a vehicle if i was you, generally speaking the only people who ever come out ontop of car financing is the bank, i work within this industry and have seen plenty of P'platers such as yourself take out finance only to have the...
