Does a VR statesman have a fuse on door actuators ? The rear passenger will not lock and other 3 doors will not open. Planning to replace actuatetor, I don't know why the other doors are faulty
Hi, wondering what would be the best set up on a sports exhaust I'm thinking 2.5 " single muffler. Or 2.5" dual muffler. Would the single muffler be cop bait? Cheers, I'll leave it to you guys and thanks in advance for any advice or opinions
G'day Rob, I was wondering what else could be making it chew 18 per 100 km if you don't think it will make a difference ? it never used to be this heavy ,295 k well maintained, oil change every 5000km .
Hi guys, my 94 VR statesman Buick is chewing 18 L per 100km. Im told Oxygen sensor is buggered. How many oxygen sensors do these models have and is it best too change both if they have 2 ? Is it a difficult job? Ive bought plugs and filter.
I've been using Moreys fuel additive ,injector /...
Hi James, I have a VR 94 statesman that's using 18l per 100km .how many oxygen sensors are on yours? I'm told there is 1 pre cat and 1 after cat. Did you change both sensors if there are 2 ?
Hi guys, how much is the speedometer increased by putting 17s on and taking the original 15s off. Just got whacked with a $200 fine for 12km over the limit. Cheers
Thanks so much Losh,havent checked out plugs yet. Are the oxygen sensors easy to change? I'm not sure how many pins mine has yet and I know they're all different.
Thank you, I did think the 02 sensor could be the issue ,can all the plugs be removed without removing everything like a Mitsubishi V6 ? I have looked after the car with non smelly fish oil everywhere and have oil changed and filter every 5k's .i use Moreys oil additive and Moreys fuel/injector...
Hi Guys, I have VR statesman with a 3.8 Buick v6 . My fuel economy is 18 l per 100km ,way too much . The motor has 296 on the odometer. Could the oxygen sensor be faulty and cause this spike in fuel consumption? Cheers
Do you race cars ? I guess the advantage would be less carbon build up with the fuel fetter burned by more spark. What spark plugs would you use with those coils? Are they USA made
Yeah, these coils were NGK, they weren't nesscersary but I thought I might go a set for $90 2 year warranty. They sell those coils online for $269 high output.
It was the DFI causing the issue ,with that and a new set of coils and a very cluey mobile auto sparky . The cost was $325 and he came to me and went and sourced the parts came back and 10mins later she's running like a dream again :)
Motor was running like a dream, today it's turns over but won't start. RAC guy said no power is reaching the coils. 291k
Anyone got any ideas? I don't want to hand the RAC $$$$
