Hey Guys, Have a listen to this and let me know what you reckon. Does it on dead cold startup. Lasts about 1 min. The Mic on the camera makes it a lot louder than it actually is.

Recently bought a Senator with 50,000 on it. Getting clunking/thudding from the front end going over speed humps, shaking the steering left and right at about 40kmh (The worst), undulations and turning into driveways at an angle. I cant get it to make any noise turning the wheel lock to lock...

Guys, Is there a way to stop the drivers seat trim (Where the seat controls are) from breaking? Nearly every holden ive owned, its broken it off. Yeah i can get another one but thats just going to break too.

Guys, Having an issue with my 2011 Caprice V. I press the memory button, the mirrors move to the preset position but the seat wont move. The seat moves manually using the switches/buttons as normal but not with the preset buttons. Just started today. Any ideas?

Guys, My seat memory in my 2011 Caprice V all of a sudden stopped working. Not entirely though. The mirrors move to their presets like normal but the seat wont move at all. The seat moves if you manually press the adjust buttons/switches but wont wont move with the memory buttons. Any ideas?

So i had a leaky radiator on the wifes 2011 WM CapriceV. Replaced the radiator (Aftermarket) but noticing the coolant level in the radiator is lower than the hole for the reservoir return. Im not 100% sure if the problem was happening before i changed the radiator, but i checked the rad level...

So... Lol. I decided to change out my head gaskets on the Twin Turbo from the leaky Cometics MLS to Felpro composite gaskets. Put it all back together, went to bleed the cooling system and noticed it took alot longer than normal for the coolant to start to come out the nipple. When the motor...

Guys, Im helping a mate with his VS Clubby 355. He had the car dyno'd not long ago but it broke a valve spring on the dyno. Towed the car home so I could repair it. I thought i'd do a compression check just in case anything was damaged too badly. He reckons its running about 10-11:1...

So ive just done a surge tank install in my VS. Im running an intank walbro 255lhr feeding the surge tank and a bosch 044 out of the surge tank to the fuel rail. Lines are 100% correctly connected. Surge tank overflow goes back to fuel tank return, rail return goes to surge tank. I checked...

Im looking at rebuilding my V6 4L60E myself. Who has done a rebuild using some sort of strong rebuild kit? The kit will have to suit 400-500HP. What kits are available? Where to buy? What to look out for? Does any tuning have to be done after the rebuild or does it just bolt back up...

I need to tow my VS to the tuner because 60lb/hr injectors are like fire hoses and wont run properly. I cant drive it up the trailer, i need to winch it. How would i go about doing that without a front tow hook???

Trying to work out which ECU is best for my car (Fully built TT Ecotec auto) What are you guys using? Im not looking at spending big bucks either.

Sitting in the loungeroom watching tv when the horn on the wifes VT starts going off. I get up and try to unlock it with the key remote but it wont unlock. I had to physically open the door with the key. I pushed the horn button on the steering wheel and it stopped. I think i had to...

Wife just called to say her '98 VT SS 5.0 ABS light came on. No other lights were on unlike an ABS module problem. It doesnt have trac control though, so im unsure of the lights that come on with a non trac VT. I think from memory the ABS, Trac and oil lights come on with an ABS module fault...

When cold it starts normally. When warm after sitting for over 1/2hr or so it cranks about 7 times before it starts. When it does start, it sounds like it been flooded, like the injectors are leaking. Takes a few seconds to clear. You can smell fuel out the exhaust after it starts. Ive...

Im working on a VT for a mate. Hes changed the crank sensor 3 times over the last year. The last change was 3 days ago! Still stalling. He took it to a mechanic the other day to have his idler tensioner changed. They rang him and said it wont start! They changed the crank sensor and it...

The wifes VT SS 5.0, Been leaking gas for the last couple years. Lasts a few months then its empty. I changed the compressor the other day with a brand new one and had the system gassed. I wasnt 100% sure it actually was the compressor leaking, but i noticed it was oily. Today i noticed a...

Whats the best way to pull it out? Looks like a damn tight squeeze, dont think it comes out from underneath? Any ideas?

Hey all, Had a few years off mucking around with the car. Anyway, thought i might get back into it. Went to start it today and its very hard to start. Im only getting 20-30 psi at prime with the ignition on. When it finally starts the pressure instantly climbs to where its supposed...

Hey fellas, How do you reckon i could get this little dent out of my Yoshimura muffler? Im not going to attempt anything myself lol. Who can i take it to? I called a paintless dent remover and they said ''We dont do that kind of thing''.:hmmm: Its aluminium.

Ok this is really getting on my nerves. My turbos are smoking. Oil is dripping out the turbine into the exhaust. Ive rebuilt one of the turbos that was smoking the worst. No difference. Ive put 7/8 dia lines to a catchcan from both rocker covers aswell as the stock crank breather from...

Ok, intermittantly it will kick over about 7-10 times before it finally starts. Usually after its been sitting for a while. When it does finally start it back fires through the throttle body then chugs and stinks like fuel out the exhaust. It runs absolutely flawlessly after it starts. I...

Having a problem with the wifes SS. When you switch the fan speed to high the whole A/C turns off aswell as the blower. I can hear a click somewhere in the drivers side dash area but thats it.

Hey fellas, It works on all other speeds but when you switch it to high it turns off. I can hear the relay click when i switch it to high. Cant be the resistor as all the other speeds work. Any ideas?

As the title says. Im getting many different answers as to which way the dots face. Anyone know for sure?

Hey fellas, Dialing in my Comp cams 212/212 turbo grind. The cam card says intake centerline of 111deg. Im getting 3deg ADV when dialing it in with the Rollmaster timing chain set to 0. Ive heard Comp cams grinds 3-4 deg ADV into the cams already. Does this mean i have to retard...

I tried to put my Rollmaster double row on the other day and found the cam sprocket is very loose on the cam. The start of the cam journal where the sprocket sits its loose as a goose then goes tight on the last 3mm. The bore is parallel and the cam has only a little 3mm long step near the...

Im using Total Seal Plasma rings with Diamond Racing 2618 alum forgies. The instructions for the rings after you work out the gaps say that the top ring has a bigger gap than the 2nd ring. Ive been researching this and it seems 1/2 go for the top ring smaller than the bottom and 1/2 go top...

When you accelerate harder than normal the front end lifts and makes a real creak/squeek metallic sound (sort of like a bush or something rubbing up a thread under high load) just for a split second until the load comes off, the front end comes back down and it makes the same noise. Everyone...

Before holdens it was peugeot's for me... I know, i know but atleast i talked sense into myself and havent owned one for a while... Wasnt my fault it was my old mans as he's a pug nut. Anyway we did an engine conversion into his 205 GTI. We put a 306 2L twincam motor into it and ran Haltec...

Hey guys, Im thinking about getting a set of forged rods and pistons. All im really after is running the HP im running now (Around 400) but reliably. Its too dicey running this power with a stock bottom end lol. From your experience where is the best place to buy? Also check my parts...

Hey guys me again... This SS is driving me crazy, bloody V8's :D Under load in 1st gear i get this creeking sort of sound which is pretty loud coming from what seems the rear end. Seems to be worse when it hits a bump while accelerating. It only makes the noise for a split second or as it...
