adventra

Here's one for you AWD Holden lovers, I was looking through Carsales and found a V6 AWD 1 Tonner, which according to Whichcar: "The rarest of the rare? The One Tonner Cross6. Of the 261,238 VZ Commodore-based vehicles built, a mere 50 exited the factory as cab-chassis, all-wheel-drive...

Hi I have an 07 Adventra lx6 5th gear kinda slips but more like a thud hard to describe .. Only happens when its hot / up to temp., fluid changed with penrite ATF FS , level checked as per procedure , filters changed..

Am I nuts to be considering buying a 2004 Adventra CX8 in 2022? I feel like I’d be comfortable with an other VY/VZ commodore, but something about the AWD system ageing worries me. I’ve found one with only 140kms on the odo and it looks and drives well. Am I crazy to be considering this vehicle...

Was just curious if it would and if that’s the case might try it, trying to get the rear end to look lower, already lowered on e36 superlows and shortened shocks so yeah. Would like someone’s take on this?

Hey folks, I have to replace the CV boot on the rear tail shaft of the Cross8. I can not find these anywhere. At all. There was a thread a few months back where someone found one for their Adventra. They linked a company that might have one, but I can't find the thread or the company. If it was...

Hi was wondering if I could get some input on wether a rear garnish of the adventra would bolt right on to the standard commodore wagon boot lid, or wether i should just buy the tailgate and fit it?

Hi all, I own a 2005 Holden Adventra which has a 5 speed transmission. The transmission was rebuilt by a reputable company in October of 2020 and was found that it failed because of the torque converter. It worked well for a couple of months (about 10,000km) before it had to go in again over new...

Hi I came across your post whilst I was looking for information on the required electrical interface between an LS1 and 6L80E in a cross 8 Crewman. I am currently getting pricing on manufacturing the required adaptor housing and the stub shaft between the 6L80E and the transfer case. This...

Hey there, Just seeing if i could swap my v8 maf sensor with a V6 as my one in my V8 is buggered and i have a v6 at home that is being wrecked. Cheers in advance.

Hi all, was hoping to broaden my knowledge thru anybody on this forum that can give me their opinion on a 1 owner VY Adventra that has been looked after, never abused, and FULLY & professionally serviced by a VACC Mechanic every 6,000 to 10,000kms(max) without fail, and using the best of...

hey guys, I’m thinking of doing something different with my car regarding putting on dished interceptors with adventra flares, how would I go about fitting them? Do they come off the adventra by themselves if I pry them off the fenders?, or would I need to make my own fender flares. Pic...

We have a VZ Adventra. All other lights on the car are working perfectly except we have no brake lights. Hubby is just about tearing his hair out trying to work out what the problem is. We have tried another 2 brake light switches (bought from wreckers). The car is not blowing any fuses and...

Just wondering if anyone has done a lift kit on an avalanche wagon? Also wondering if the adventra has the same set up as an avalanche? Has anyone replaced the bushes in the front as well? Was gonna do a lift kit at home if it is pretty straight forward.

Hey Guys, I have the above model Adventra with approx 150,000km on the clock. Along with the last service the fan, air con belts, etc were all replaced by a mobile registered mechanic that I had used on a couple of previous occasions. Next morning on starting, it made a noise very similar to a...

I have a 2004 VY2 CX8 Adventra and I recently had the ABS warning come on intermittently for several weeks and then come on constantly with the orange ABS Light. I plugged my trusty scan tool in and it brought up the C0550 which is pretty much a communication error with the ABS Module. I pulled...

G'Day All, Recently bought a 2004 VYII LX8 Adventra. I drove it up 4 ramps today to do a full service. Have 1 or possibly two issues. I normally drive my land rover up on four standard car ramps, in low range, no problem. Today did the same thing with the Adventra, no low range, but has...

Hey guys, I'm wanting to convert my AWD Adventra LS1 to rear wheel drive only. I would like to do a manual RWD conversion using a T56 box and run a conventional RWD commodore setup (getting rid of all the AWD stuff). OR I am considering keeping the 4L60E auto box, and converting the...

Hey guys, I've got a Pioneer 12" and a JL Audio 400W amp (which is perfect fit for putting in the same spot as the factory amp) and I have cut the loom plug that connects to the factory amp. Now I am unsure of the wireing and can not find it anywhere on the net! So I have 2 yellow and 2...

I Need some help, I had the front lower control arm bushes replaced lastweek and now it seems that my rear wiper and glass release on the tial gate are not working, they worked about 2 weeks ago... has anyone got a wiring diagram for the boot control? I think one of the wires in one of the...

I've got a clunk in the drive train of my '05 Adventra SX6 with 160K on the clock. When the car is coasting to a stop there is a clunk in the drive train when the geabox changes down gears, also there is a lot of slack when I shift from P to D on the auto. I've taken the car to a mechanic I...

I recently acquired a 2005 VZ LX6 Adventra and it has high-lift King Springs on the rear. The rear sits slightly higher than the front when there is no load on the back but I thought the Level-Ride Suspension would have evened it out. Can anyone enlighten me as to how the LRS works? Is it...

I have installed fog lights onto my 06 Adventra however am unsure on how to change over the light switch to the new fog light one. Any ideas?
