- VS Executive V6
I recently bought a 4-speed auto V6 '95 VS Commodore with only 180,000km, totally straight and nanna driven all its life. There are just a couple of things I want to know so I can fix it;
1) only in foward gears (not reverse, park or neutral) it makes a vibration when stopped with the brakes on, it sounds like its coming from underneath where the gearbox connects to the engine. I've read that they can have issues with torque convertors??
2) when accelerating, it feels rough like it's miss firing or something, mainly at low rpm (0-2500ish) and it goes really well past that.
I will check the plugs, leads etc. It would be good to know if the two issues are related and if anybody can tell me any more about what I'm dealing with, it would be greatly appreciated.
