problem

Hey guys, here again. So I have two weird problems with my Commodore VE Ute 2008 5spd automatic. 1) the car has recently gotten a gearbox change, (torque converter stayed the same) and after driving it for a while I realised that it does not rev past 5,000RPM. I used to be able to go past it...

Im looking at purchasing a 2019 equinox. Everything is absolutely perfect and drives great but there's this low sounding high pitch noise that you can hear inside the car that seems to be coming from under the bonnet around the car battery area. I'm wondering if it is something I need to worry...

So I have a 2003 vy commodore all the doors lock except the drivers door. The drivers door lock knob on the doorcard is stuck down and will not go up with any amount of force, yet the door is unlocked and won’t lock with the key or fob buttons. all the other doors do lock and unlock perfectly...

Hey guys, my electric windows in my 05 vz ss have recently stopped working, when I press the button to go down it only makes a clicking sound. Just wanna know what it could be. Cheers.

Hi All, as the title suggests I have been through 2 tensioner pulleys in the past 2 years and now it needs replacing for a 3rd time even though the last one was only done 3 months ago, but once again it's screaming its head off as soon as the engines warm! Surely there's some underlying problem...

Hey everyone,it's my first post here so good to meet you all :) this may be a silly question but I'm wondering if anyone can help me installing nolathane engine mounts in a vz ss. My problem is that the mounts don't have any locating pins so I'm not 100% sure what way they are meant to be...

i just bought a 2011 VE SV6 Commodore, and it has a reverse camera on it but it doesn’t work? screen doesn’t show anything of the camera working, neither do my reverse sensors work? it also doesn’t allow me to use the navigation system, is this common thing in all of these models. Do i need to...

Hey guys just wondering if someone could help me out with a problem I’m having. I have a 2004 vy commodore which I’ve just recently found out the diff is needed to be replaced and I think the right side drive shaft?After finally working out this problem I now have a new one. When coming to a...

Hi guys, Just bought a 2010 VE SSV REDLINE UTE, L77 With 140000km. Has a folder of receipts including 355rwkw dyno sheets. Sold to me as 'needs lifters replaced' and I got it for 11k. Im hoping that's a good price and that's all that's wrong with it. As I have just lost my house, 2 cars and...

I have a 2015 Holden VF SV6 auto When trying to turn all traction control off in the VF (I know you have to Holden the “traction control” button for 8-10 seconds for the esp to turn off as well as the traction control) but even when I have it all turned off, I still can’t get the wheels to spin...

FINAL UPDATE: The fuel tank was full of ****, which clogged the fuel pump. Cleaned the tank and replaced the fuel pump, now the car works perfectly. UPDATE 3: So i took my car to a mechanic, he said the problem was the MAF sensor, bought a new MAF sensor... Still has the same problem. I am...

Hi guys, I’ve got a 2007 SS-V 6.0. It’s got a flat spot until about 2000rpm. The car shudders and practically just feels like I’ve blocked off the intake and it’s trying to stall it’s self, just bogging down. I’ve replaced plugs, all the leads and coils seem fine, and I’ve just replaced the MAP...

Hey guys I just bought a 2004 vz Calais it’s factory auto ls1 it’s got 290 000km andhasnt been drivin for a few months I’m assuming only because it’s summer as **** and the heater was on full bull when I picked it up but anyway it runs rough and it actually stalled on me when I was leaving the...

recently swapped svz front brakes&rotors onto a sedan and after bleeding peddle goes nearly all the way to the floor. They do work but not untill the pedal is just off the fire wall. No brake light illuminated when applyed. Was wondering if master cylinder is the same size or not.

As the title states, my car just won't start. It cranks just fine but won't fire. Plugs, leads and coil packs are only 6 months old. Have checked all fuses and relays as well as just installed a new fuel pump and filter. I thought it would've been the pump as I couldn't hear any priming when I...

Hey guys I've tried searching for this issue but can't seem to find a thread made on it. When I engage my parking assistance (the feature that reverse/rear-to-curb parks the car for you) it scans for a park, finds one, instructs me to put the car in reverse then immediately says: "Parking...

Hi All, I have an issue with my 1999 VT Acclaim 3.9L V6 295000 on the clock. The problem exists only after the tranny oil warms up and I lose O/D(4th) Gear and don't get it back until i turn the car off and start it again. Everything feels and sounds like it's working as it should apart from...

Having some trouble with my VE commodore. When I have my aircon running for a while and turn my car off (like at a service station) the car then will struggle to turn back over and will run extremely rough before stalling (car is automatic), will take a number of attempts for it to start and...

I've bought a 2010 VE series 2 with factory fitted LPG. It has been driving beautifully for the past few months. After a recent fill up, it randomly started to jerk while driving on the freeway (I usually drive it at 100km/h to and from work). Then it automatically beeped and switched itself to...

it fails to drop back down to its usual idle, its a pain because it likes to sit between 2000rpm-1300rpm, sometimes it is normal but not often. with a massive rev up to nearly redline it will drop back down to normal idle speed but i dont like doing it. To me it sort of sounds like a leak...

Hey guys got a bit of a little problem with the old 1995 vs v6, took it upto the servo and pumped about $90 of premium 98 in the tank no dramas (first time actually filling the thing up the whole way) , screwed the fuel cap on and heard a bit of a dripping noise, looked under the car and to my...

My two front door speakers and both tweeters aren't working and I can't figure out why. They have been replaced with kicker speakers before I purchased my car, so I figure that they've been installed badly or a fuse (that I can't find) has blown as all the other speakers are working normally...

While driving the other day my whole instrument cluster went dead. All needles dropped down to nothing for about 30 good seconds. Also during that time my abs light would come on and my stereo would start to go scratchy then cut out. Car was still driving fine, the odometer was still on and...

Hi guys, My vs berlina, since I've had it, about a year or so, never fills up all the way, I only put in about $60 (expensive prices) on an empty tank, my old mans vn took about $80 on a full tank, I'm currently very low on fuel and I'd like to take the tank out to see if it's the sender unit...
