- VE Calais 6.0
Hi guys,
I've been having problems with my VE Calais (V8 Auto 2006) pretty much since I got it, and my local dealership at Orange don't seem to be able to solve it.
Basically, long story short, the car appears to be drawing more power from the battery than it charges back into it. After a few short trips, or cold winter morning/night time starts it will get errors upon starting the engine. Like the ESP and ABS will bring up error icons in the screen, the ESP will need to be turned off then back on again to work.
Holden have really been pretty poor on this one, their fix is to charge my battery at every oil change, but within a week it's almost flat again.
Holden told me the tech2 had low voltage alarms logged.
Any ideas any one, I've heard there is a tech release on this issue but can't get my locals to do anything other than effectively pee in my pocket.
Thanks
