Hello .. I have chevrolet lumina 2002 its equivaent to commodore vt i guess .. The problem is with the ac unit it was stuck to window vents till i found out how to change it manually to the face vents through the hoses back side the dash board .. Doing a bridge between the vaccum hose and one of the hoses there .. Thing is i cant get the air recycling to be inside the car i can smell exhausts coming from the cars infront all the time. Can any one help me with that ?!

this applies to VT VX

AXLE (Rear Axle / Diff Ratio) GU4 - 3.08:1 GU7 - 2.78:1 GU8 - 3.90

Hi and welcome to the forum.

You have just replied to a 8 year old post......

Please refrain from digging up old threads/posts unless you have something important to add. Those pallets do cause some issues but what that poster described is a classic symptom of stuffed head gaskets allowing oil into the cooling system. Common problem unfortunately (but you know that right ).
