Shop windows or back of the shed wall is what I do, not sure how people go weeks without noticing lights are out. Do they not look in the rear view mirror?

Use a drying aid, I like CarPro Elixir, wash car & leave wet, a few sprays of Elixir on your microfiber towel & dry as usual, reapply Elixir to towel every panel. Works for me we have hardd water.

No the snout is deeper on the series 2 Calais front bar, not much but enough it won't work.

Needs to be completely dry before oiling, I'd imagine the oil wouldn't penetrate or wick properly throughout the filter & possibly become airborne on startup.

I don't think it's that bad, can get my VCM otr filter out in under 5 mins & have a second filter ready to go.

Sounds like a vacuum leak, check all the hoses around the area you were working including the evap hoses for correct fitment. You may have possibly cracked a brittle one removing.

I wouldn't worry about it too much unless you want a cam that is, service it every 7500 -10000 & use an engine flush every now & again. Most of these issues arise from poor maintenance schedules.

Paid $36.05 (40% off) Australian online car parts for AC Delco.

I suspect a previous owner has removed airbag lamp & that would be your beeping.

Check every electrical connection & vaccum lines you unplugged. Many times I've broken a vaccum line or forgot to plug something in.

Roofline & mirror look like VR/VS

Yeah that's about Mines the same

$275 is what I paid couple of years ago, itemized below attachment.

I have both, I noticed after installing the LED's I get interference.

You haven't got LED number plate globes installed?

TS1956 looks like a scam account anyway, they hit up wanted ads on forums hoping someone will bite...

Any updates on this?

It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

Counting from passenger side front of engine. 87 65 43 21 (Front Of Engine)

Check the positive terminal fuses, its the clear block on the positive battery lead. They are non replaceable fuses so a replacement block would be required.

Hi level input is what you want using speaker wire connections. If you were upgrading the headunit you would use RCA connection. There will be a guide or post somewhere on this forum for the speaker wire colours & location to tap into.

Generally free to air subs don't perform all that well, enclosed sub or ported & amplifier is what you want.

On the right looks like lead split shots used for fishing.

It's a sign the fuel pump/sender is about to die, I had half a dozen 'Contact Dealer/gauge to zero before it finally wouldn't start again.

Sagged strut top mounts

Maybe, mine was P0523 from memory high voltage. Also clean the gauze basket underneath the sensor while it's out.

Most likely the oil pressure sensor, it's behind the valley cover passenger side , 27mm deep socket.

This car runs on Raspberry Cruisers....

My tune has the overrun burble, I thought it was standard on these...

You won't be able to remove the metal plate, remove the 3 nuts & the whole light assembly pulls away from outside the vehicle. Be careful with the long metal threads as you pull away.

This panel pops out, then I use a 1/2 inch socket on an extension bar to remove the long plastic nuts. Can be a little fiddly & don't drop the plastic nuts...

Did the PO look like this by any chance? That wing though

When it's running pull the dipstick out & see if there is air & smoke/oil spitting out. I had a VZ that had a completely blocked PCV valve caused it to run rough & no power.

2009 Calais V When I tapped into the puddle lights for the illuminated door sills it was brown wire silver stripe from the BCM plug.

Get an independent assessment from another mechanic.

Looks to be the same type of valve as the 3.6
