VF 6.0 CALAIS V
hi Guys
i am looking at replacing the harmonic balancer on my VF series 1 calais 6.0. i have seen the powerbond brand mentioned but i have seen advertised a Pro Street Harmonic Balancer brand also advertised,has anyone any info on these? can anyone who has had the balancer replaced give me an idea of the labour cost involved? one other thing,the ARP bolt 234-2503 seems to be around $70 to $90, is that right?
thanks for any help.
cheers

Thread dig !!!

My car started making funny chirping noise when cold. I could see some 'wobble' in the balancer but not much.
Soooo if you hear similar sound ...inspect your balancer...

Holden replaced the harmonic balancer and belts today under warranty :)


I think my car makes this noise sometimes during a cold start up for the 1st 10 seconds or so...

Only started noticing it after I watched (listened) to your video and I started remote starting it while standing infront of the car... lol

Now I'm back to checking whether the (other) noise I hear is piston slap or just usual engine noise... lol
