    VX V6 Vibration driving me nuts!

    So are you saying that as revs increase in either drive or idle the problem seems to disappear, if that is the case it may also be your harmonic balancer.

    Another thing to check is the actual drive gear on the distributor shaft (at the bottom) These are usually made of bakelite in older commodores and plastic in some vh vk's. The distributor gear is known to fail. Three solutions........ 1. Replace with another plastic or bakelite gear (new or...

    Ask The Copper

    Well said and very fair from my point of view. As car enthusiasts we need to make sure we comply with the laws (inappropriate as some are) more so than the average road user.

    Insurance for P Platers

    I'm helping my youngest with this as he gets (hopefully) his licence tomorrow. The cheapest I found was AAMI at $1360 for the first year full comp with windscreen insurance and free defensive driving course (doing this gives a 10% discount)

Combining the hybrid aspect and regen braking the predictions are that the vehicle would...

    Help building a new PC

    I build pcs for my close friends and the 3 Things you need to know (from my perspective anyway) is what do you want to use it for (ie anything really specific or just general use), how much are you wanting to spend and last but not least what components do you already have.
