    Fire Extinguisher Bracket

    Thats pretty neat. Im fitting one this weekend. 1KG SCA one. Probably just fit it in the boot haha. wonder how much 1KG will contribute to fuel consumption. if i took my toolbox/water bottle out aswell it could be a bit more lighter.

    Please please help - dash not working

    Check the connections the dash plugs into. Sometimes the cheap loom plugs get loose. Sometimes u can unplug them and plug it back in and it works. Otherwise, u could try "tensioning" up the loom plug pins. So they contact better thus always keeping your dash connected properly (IF this is the...

    2006/2007 VE Model's Check Engine Light Occurring Frequently?

    of the above issues, i only have 1 and that is the ESP intermittent problem. Who told you about the low voltage details? My battery was replaced when i first bought the car.

    anyone had there ve software updated and how much did they charge

    either.but hopefully there is and i have no numbers just a dodgy ESP system
  33. D

    anyone had there ve software updated and how much did they charge

    Yeah, safety related recall so it should be alright.
  34. D

    anyone had there ve software updated and how much did they charge

    Thats owner charge. But out of date software/incorrect ESP software is directly connected to occupant safety i beleive.So if i call up holden tomorrow and say your ESP software is incorrect/out of date they should update it for free.
  35. D

    anyone had there ve software updated and how much did they charge

    I would say ESP is directly relating to occupant safety. So this should be free.
  36. D

    anyone had there ve software updated and how much did they charge

    So if i have a fault with the car OUT OF WARRANTY- and there was a factory fix for the fault,i can take the car to get the software updated free of charge? (irrelevant of KM and age of vehicle) This is what your saying?
  37. D

    anyone had there ve software updated and how much did they charge

    yeah so thats from the above mentioned dealer, mines got only 1 software issue- ESP. Other then that its fine. Normal VE problems=no surprise.
  38. D

    anyone had there ve software updated and how much did they charge

    I also have to get "needed updates" on my 07 SV6 sedan.But holden will want to charge an hours labour to "check if my vehicle" needs the updates, and if it does- charge ANOTHER hours labour to do the updates so theres approx $250 straight away.Ive checked on this by the way.
