As far as i was aware, only VP Calais' and VQ statesmans had variable steer.

Just hope you don't have it, i've blown 3 racks because of that crap.

I dont think VN's had this but if it does there should be 4 Plugs that sit between the battery and the fuse box instead of 3.

Only V8 Statesman and they were standard

jeez this site is full of so much mis information these days.

Variable power steering was only ever on VP Calais and VQ2 Statesman and Caprices. V6s AND V8s. And was discontinued on VY.
Never on the VN, and not only on V8s (thow they're all different racks) and u can tell if ur car has one as it has a solenoid sticking out of the rack.

Statesmans only had them on V8's Standard

only on series 2 statesmans as maniac vp stated. i own a vq series 1 v8 and it does not have a variable steering rack

I'm sure they are on VP Calais too, must have been a common option if it wasn't standard?
