    My new car cover

    Hi all, I have no affiliation with the business, but i'll give a shout out to someone providing a quality product. I recently purchased a Purfit cover for my VE to replace my 'Block it 380' Cover Craft cover that was disintegrating after approx. 8 years. Covercraft covers are no longer...

    ZB 2018 Commodore diesel DPF replacement - now cant fill with fuel

    Was that a standard (passenger) or hi-flow (truck) nozzle you tried to fill with? I think they are a different size. I have not used hi-flow pumps for a while as they are usually too greasy. Not sure how the ZB filler is set up.

    VH SS Dash Cluster - Dot Switch

    We used to call it an On/Off switch. Could be used for driving lights. Friends installed one back in the 80’s so there were no blank switches. Cheers

    There is an old thread from many years ago regarding the Glove Box light in VE's... The anger it caused! https://forums.justcommodores.com.au/threads/light-in-glovebox.96538/

    VE SS (Auto) Radiator replacement or Flush?

    Wow, lucky you found it when you did. Mine failed overtaking another car. Left me stranded on the side of the road as the car I passed cruised by...

    VE SS (Auto) Radiator replacement or Flush?

    If that is the original radiator, you have done very well. Mine failed at approx. 106K (top neck snapped off). Of course that was just after the 105K service where the coolant was replaced (car was 5 years old). Genuine replacement rad. approx. $1K. Coolant was also replaced about 2 years ago...

    Factory Sunroof Install

    Maybe try TJM on Highbury Road, Burwood. They do Prestige Sunroofs. I used to work around there, they always had new cars getting pre-delivery work done.

    100,000km

    Hey VC, I hear ya, heard of a few negative reports myself. I've had a good run with my local Pedders. Maybe it helps I know the people in the workshop. I can stand and watch what's happening. I'm trying to keep the VE as OEM as possible, might even end up using genuine Holden (Monroe?) shocks...

    100,000km

    For the record, nothing wrong with a dual cab. Gotta get 'em dirty like I do!! @Geoff6666 , given age and k's, maybe look at some new shocks. I'm currently looking at Pedders... due to mates rates...

    Manual Gearbox stuck in Reverse in 2002 Holden Cruze

    I have had this happen in a Kia Pregio van. To get it out of gear we pushed/rocked it back and forward. It eventually popped out of gear. Never knew the root cause of the problem as we sold the whole fleet of 3. Cheers

    Looking for roller shutter

    Love the Ute roller covers, I’ve got the EGR Rolltrac on my new Hilux. Provides lighting and security by locking into the tailgate. HSP have rollers for VE/VF, but good luck finding one for the VZ. Cheers
