motor

Hello all. Trying to identify this 308 motor, reportedly it came from a VL Walkinshaw but the serial number on the block 11QT29131 tells me it came from a HQ Statesman. Set up with the gearbox and sump it has come out of a commodore. Can anyone help with its identity.

Engine is kaput in my very clean VE Calais V S2. Not going to get into it too much because what's done is done. Moving forward. I like cars but on a surface level. Enjoy the thrill of driving a nice car as much as anybody but I don't gaf how they work up to a certain point. I could build you a...

Hi All Hoping you could help out with some advice on what the issue could be. For the last few weeks, when I am stationary and the car is in park or drive it starts shaking/vibration and I don’t know if it’s from the transmission area or motor. Basically comes and goes anyone has this problem...

I am trying to identify what motor is in my VS acclaim, whether it's a VS ecotec, VX or a VT ecotec motor. The mechanics who changed the motor used my manifold and throttle body but when I change the oil it takes 4.8 litres without reaching the dipstick. This would have been changed in 2016 and...

Hey there, I'm looking into buying my first car. I've saved quite a few on Carsales that I've found, but just wanted to get everybody's opinions on them. I've been told by a mate of mine that the 2002-2004s have the best motors, but I didn't really want anything older than 2004, and my budget...

Hi I was just wondering if I can get some help please? I had a 3.6l commodore and I was just wondering what those numbers mean? Are they important? What do they do? Also is there anyway to tell a 6.0l from a 6.2l just looking at it? Thank you for your time. Cheers

Hey guys. I own a LPG VS acclaim, and it struggles to turn over when I first start it, every time after the first time it pretty much starts straight away. I replaced the starter motor (with one from the wreckers) and it turned out fine for about a month but then started to play up again...

Whenever I turn the radio on/off, the automated antenna erects/retracts and makes a clicking sound at the end of the process. My best guess is the motor is winding the antenna more than it should and the clicking sound is teeth jumping? I haven't a clue how to fix that :/ Would it be worth...
