    vu or vy????

    I have a VY s pac ute and my mrs has a VU s pac ute. I have driven both heaps. Personally i would go VY. They will hold their value longer being younger and personally i think the VU interior looks like crap. VY SS bodykit and it will look sick!

    o2 Sensor replacement help

    I havent got a picture but they are down the side of the engine on the exhaust manifold. if you follow the exhaust from the manifold you will see a thing like a tube with 2 wires coming out of it. undo them with a ring spanner and put the new ones in.

    I was looking at changing my vy ute tail lights to the series two ones. they look heap better in my opinion. do they just bold straight in or is the mounting wrong or the wiring harness. Thanks

    foggie loom swap

    This was brought up not long ago. end verdict is its not worth the effort. just go buy the the fog light black covers for $10 at holden or wire up something yourself

    Need help

    They don't come with extractors they come with a standard exhaust manifold. I have a vy v6 s pac and it sounds sick for a v6. dont get me wrong its not an 8 or anything close to it but it still does the job without being the local yobbo with a cut exhaust. all im running is a 2.5 catback with...

    O2 sensors

    Im pretty sure it was. he hooked it up to a computer and looked at the readings of the MAF and it said incoming air was 95 degrees

    Slight grabbing/bumpy feeling in front wheel

    you can get cheap after market ones. just get new. and they sound warped. my rotors are warped pretty bad when i break heavy the steering wheel shudders. im new for new ones too.
  19. Mad84VK

    O2 sensors

    Okay so my car is all fixed! Turned out it was the MAF sensor. the thing was telling the computer that the air going into the car was 95 rather the around 30. so to compensate for the high temps it was changing the air/fuel mix. got the MAF changed and should all be okay now! YAY no more filling...

    which fog light

    My car had a exec front when i got it. It still had the wiring for foggies though. If theres a will theres a way as the saying goes. i dont know how hard it would be
  21. Mad84VK

    which fog light

    yeah thats what i though. exec's dont have the wiring.
  22. Mad84VK

    which fog light

    yeah you will have to buy a relay for them. they sound like the plugs. although mine are one on each side. if you can take a picture and ill compare them to mine. my only concern is, is there the wires from the back of the light switch to the relay for fog lights.
  23. Mad84VK

    which fog light

    and as far as fog lights all of them are the same size. your'e better off checking with holden.
  24. Mad84VK

    which fog light

    have a look under the front of the car. where the bumper goes in for where the fog lights are see if there are any plugs or wires. and these are what im talking about. http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/693/sl372007.jpg http://www.autoscene.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/c290_1.jpg
  25. Mad84VK

    which fog light

    It all depends on how good you wanna do it. Exec's don't usually have the wiring for fog lights. Only some S PAC's and up do. you can either do it the proper way and buy the switch, wiring, relay and lights. or you can backyeard job it and run power from the battery into a fuse and switch on...

    O2 sensors

    i meant the little trip computer, you have a set button next to your steering wheel. press and hold set and it will reset all your stats (trip meter, fuel per 100kms etc) and you should hear a ticking but like futech said it could be lots of things.
  27. Mad84VK

    O2 sensors

    reset the metre. also i was told that a sticky lifter can make a lumpy idle.

    O2 sensors

    I don't see a point making a new thread if there is one already on the topic. I previously posted that my car was using 16L/100KM. I was told that it was the O2 sensors. since then I have been using my brothers car till i get mine done. I started my car tonight to take it up the street and it...

    VY Using too much fuel recetly?

    I am running a Pod filter at the moment and that hasn't changed the fuel consumption either way. i cut out parts of the filter box so it fits in there nice an snug. its getting its air from the stock CAI Ive tried 98 95 and 91 and the difference was just better performance. im getting between...

    VY Using too much fuel recetly?

    There's no fuel leak as far as i can see. I tried injector cleaner a while ago and it did nothing. doubt ill need to use it again. I will take it back to the mechanic and get him to check the computer for error codes and see how the O2 sensors are reading. As far as the oil level being over by...

    diff problem ?? (maybe)

    I know how you feel. I got my VY V6 Manual ute and that thing singles everywhere. Its so annoying. If i drop the clutch while turning or power on while turning it singles. Yet if i drop the clutch in a straight line it doubles. I've had my fluid changed and it made it worse.
