    Tow bar hole surround

    I've gotta cut it higher as it's sticking a bit and blowing the bar haha But I only got a Dremel, not a jigsaw And would rather wait for the insert piece size first before enlarging the hole

    Tailshaft - balance, vibration?

    something else we questioned was with an LFX motor and VF trans in a VE wagon, would the car require a VF tailshaft or a VE tailshaft ?

    Tailshaft - balance, vibration?

    when i bought the car a year ago my first drive up the adelade hills i noticed wheel bearings grinding. i replaced the front wheel bearings this up hill stagger shutter also existed at same time, so id hoped the near bearing wouldve cleared it but nup so weve changed sparks, coils, injectors...

    Tailshaft - balance, vibration?

    Hiya @uglyoldfatbastard has rigged up this ECU and motor and trans so well has done enormous work and configured the car with its new lfx the way it should be. Shocked that the car was able to run previously Anyhow I've always noticed a light rumble sound by the drivers left foot when...

    what did you do to your car today?

    do couplings wear out in where the bolts slide through? i gave the tail shaft an up and down push and theres slight play at the front coupling VE wagon centre bearing looks intact, but it sits there sagging to the bottom, i guess thats normal as the weight makes it hang

    What is lfx compression

    rippa thats an awesome idea :cool::cool:
  15. PlenumBiscuit

    What is lfx compression

    Where should a good compression psi be at for an lfx are they high or low compression motors Did mine tonight and all pistons were about 155 psi on a warm to hot motor So this week have disabled fuel flex sensor, check compression and found 1 of the spark plugs were gapped wrong at 0.9 where...

    HPFP or not?

    Thanks guys...old mate is helping me with a new ecu and we need to know if hpfp
  17. PlenumBiscuit

    HPFP or not?

    Would it be certain my 2014 lfx motor in my VE would have a high pressure fuel pump or is there an off chance it's using the old LLT fuel pump or something else? I've tried to view the pump but bit tough with that shield over it Is there any other way to tell? My fuel rail and injectors are...

    Clean internal fuel filter

    thanks...every thing they do is so home repair jobs cant be done and promotes people having to take their car to service dealers and keeps them rich and in business $$$$

    I am hearing a light tumbling rumbling around the bell housing area when low throttle at 1200 revs Checked the tail shaft seemed ok

    Where's fuel pump relay

    omg thats incredible, i knew it would be a quick 2 second enable/disable switch....$700 omg was almost gonna just buy my own hp tuner for that is there a chance the trans type is different? ive got a feeling it was upgraded with the lfx motor (or renewed) does the vf have a different trans to...

    Where's fuel pump relay

    unreal youre in Radelaide!! Do you have a workshop or a home repairer... Im in adelaide hills step 1: new 2011 ECU with correct #serv number step 2: would we need a tuner to load the LFX settings will my scan tool tell me if i have HPFP...it doesnt have the relay so im guessing HPFP

    Where's fuel pump relay

    hi yes mate look at this v8 pump (dunno if the same as v6) but the gunk in this one is a concern im sure mine is the same, is there an additive to clean this out or off the pump/filter? on this particular youtube video, i think he took the diff out as well? wtf surely its just the sub frame...

    Where's fuel pump relay

    Next issues I'd like to try..... Cam sensors & cam actuators Compression test Fuel pump & filter but geeze that's a task and a half With a stethoscope the sensor on the start of the fuel rail is incredibly loud

    Where's fuel pump relay

    Hi it's a Dec 2010 but somewhere it's titled a 2011 series 2 Calais wagon Cluster says 316,000 KMs, but the new installed lfx motor has done about 70,000kms It's immaculate runs like a dream, incredibly luxurious, I do oil every 8000kms But start going up inclines and it shudders....live data...

    Where's fuel pump relay

    Thanks so you know any good tuners in Adelaide? So far I've got quotes at $700 plus just to disable the fuel flex sensor omg

    Where's fuel pump relay

    crazy really, such a specialized extra computer you'd think would make it highly economical i guess if it was faulty it would throw a code? trying another one hope it doesnt have to be tuned
  29. PlenumBiscuit

    Where's fuel pump relay

    ive been wanting to simply change the fuel relay and hope the car would function better (chasing a fault) but no it doesnt have a relay now? it only has this control module?
  30. PlenumBiscuit

    Where's fuel pump relay

    here i suppose ever much issues with these? do they cost much new? im still having issues with car staggering shaking up hills maybe its compression, other wise its fuel related
  31. PlenumBiscuit

    Where's fuel pump relay

    mine is a wagon will it be there too will it have a relay on it? or is it a next level encapsulated module yes i suppose i could have a quick look with me torch (flat batteries though) :)

    Where's fuel pump relay

    What really? Lmao Is this a trick
  33. PlenumBiscuit

    Where's fuel pump relay

    So where is the fuel pump relay VE series 2 Calais It's not under the bonnet, not in passenger footwell (there's a blanked area for one) and there are no relays in back above the battery

    my ongoing saga with this money gulping piece of VE crap

    think the wheel sensors are common fault on these they run across the diff to the wheel

    Multi meter testing sensors

    As the saying goes....dont throw money at it, it could be a wirin g fault Anyways so ive got a multi meter haha what next do i take a sensor off and test the resistance/continuity? i ried this say on a cam sensor and theyve have 3 pins so i get no response also if testing whilst sensor and...

    VY SS

    All VZ lights will fit into VY as gasguz says, BUT you need to be careful with regard to reflectors, not all VZ taillights have reflectors incorporated into them, this is why several VZ models have reflectors fitted in the bumper (ie Calais and some SS SV8 packages). cops may ping u for no...
