    My Perfect Blue SV6 Ute

    Don't go on here very often anymore, still have the ute. Don't think I could ever get rid of it. Have a VF as well, both get used for testing new potential products :)

    After market headunit options for a series 1 calais? Or should I get a series 2 iq unit.

    I'd be getting the Series 2 IQ system from us at Automotive Lighting Customs, you just can't beat the factory look and feel. It was designed for these cars, so everything just works as it should.

    Enable Genuine Rear Park Assist Sensors?

    You most likely have the genuine dealer fitted kit and not the factory fitted rear sensor kit. You can tell simply by looking at the sensors, if they sit flush with the bumper (almost as though they're inside the bumper) they're factory fitted. If they stick out a little (maybe 2-3 mm they're...

    Upgrade VE SSV gauges

    The factory sic gauges get their data from gmlan, so unfortunately you can't wire these gauges to the same connection. You could but only for + and - power.

    Ve series 2 white screen when reversing.

    Disconnect the video connector on the side of the head unit. Smaller on just below the large quad connector (drivers side of the head unit) This will tell you if it's your wiring or the head unit itself. Sounds to me like the video signal stuffed and is just sending a blank screen to the unit.

    Strange Marks on the dash!

    It's a known issue with the VE's dash, never seen one with that many marks though. Panel has to be replaced, pretty much whole dash needs to be removed to get to that trim.

    Hi Rob, I see you're from Wodonga, I'll be up in Bright over easter and can scan the hvac for any codes. Got both a hvac and Tech 2 scan tools. Can also provide a replacement tri zone or duel zone hvac which may solve the issue. Send me a message if you'd like to organise a time etc.

    The navigation has a seperate antenna, so that's won't be the issue. Can happen if the board is loose, or if the navigation card was somehow slipped out. It's located on the side of the unit, on the drivers side.

    Personally wouldn't bother trying it. Plastidip has a pretty strong smell. Taking every part out of the car isn't too difficult, but run the risk of breaking trims while attempting it. I see you're from Melbourne, If you want I can take any trim out that you want to paint. Send us an email...
