Hey guys,
I bought a VE Omega 06 Dual Fuel about 10 months ago that has 200000 on the clock, drove it for about 3 months or so and got check engine light coming up.
My brother being a mechanic scanned it and came up with the timing chains being stretched. He does not specialise in Holden's and hasn't previously done this sort of job. I was told by some that it inst a job for someone who hasn't got much experience with Holden's and timing chains.
Would greatly appreciate if i received some help from fellow holder owners on advice on getting the chains replaced. I live in Epping, Victoria. I would appreciate it if someone knows a good mechanic that has done chains before at decent price around the area. I got quoted 1800 from a mechanic in Werribee but will cost me nearly 300 dollars to tow it there as the car is in bad shape and don't want to take the risk.
Thanks for your time.
