- 2006 vz v6 commodore
I’ve just bought a 2006 vz station wagon. It drives fine apart from what I would describe as a rough idle during cycle. It’ll be idling perfect then all of a sudden it will idle really rough which makes the whole car rock for a second then it goes back into a smooth idle. Apparently it’s just had all the coils replaced. I’ve noticed some sort of a vacuum hose that seems to be running between the top of the engine and the firewall obviously connected to the engine but it looks more like a garden hose than a black coloured hose I would expect it to be! So I’ll have a look at the hose and see about replacing it. I’m just worried that I may have bought a lemon! It’s got 280,000 on the clock so I’m worried that it could possibly need the timing chain replaced. It’s got areasonably good silver paint job, tinted windows, lowered with 19” black mags. Also came with r/w and 6weeks rego for $4000! I’m sure that the a/c isn’t working either so I’m hoping that it just needs to be regased. Does anyone have any suggestions about the idling and a/c? Also did I get it at a reasonable or good price? Thanks in advance to anyone that tries to help I appreciate you taking the time to comment. Have a good day
