Hi All. I am researching engine mounts for a project. LS1 hydraulic mounts might be suitable, but I need to find out some dimensions. 1: the diameter of the mounts 2: the distance between the upper and lower mounting surfaces. 3: the length of the threaded securing studs. Thanks in advance.

Hi All. I had the centre bearing replaced recently on my VX V6 Auto. Lately there's been some weird noises coming from under the centre of the car. Local trans guy hadn't heard the noise before but he said it didn't sound serious, probably a dry seal on the centre bearing. After a few weeks, now...

VX V6 auto. Noise started about 500 k's ago. Started as a moaning nolise coming from under the car at about 40 kph when starting from cold. Noise disappeared after abour 5 k's. I did a 300 k's trip and no problem or noise. Then over the days, it got worse. Lasting about 10 to 15 k's into my...

Hi All. VX S pack. 345000 k's. NA V6 auto. ABS and TRC. I have a scanner and playing around with it, I cannot see anything to do with the ABS system. Scanner returns unable to communicate. The ABS light is NOT on, The light works with a dashboard self test.. Traction control works ok (give it...

I have just had some interesting but routine alternator experiences with my VX V6 Commodore. A long while ago the original alt developed a fault - a dim glowing battery light. Checked the dash voltage meter, it was a bit low (13-ish volts rings a bell, it WAS a long time ago). I was pressed for...

I mentioned this in another thread but not wanting to derail it, I will post it here. At 320,000 (ish) k's the original water pump started leaking coolant out of the drain hole, and the bearings started sqealing. That was July 2020. I replaced the pump with a "Gates" brand pump from Super Cheap...

HI. VX V6 Auto (S Pak). I have some historical data as a result of a crankshaft sensor (now finally fixed hopefully after putting a sus ebay one in!). Now I have historical data. Questions: Does that show the event in order, first event at the top? (I assume so). Number of events shows 1, so I...

VX S pak. Pretty much standard. I replaced the factory shocks as I didn't like the jiggly ride. I had had success with Sensa-tracs on my old Magna so I thought I'd give them a try on the S. They were great. Well damped but in corners they didn't allow the car to wallow and body roll. I went...

ITEM: VX V6 NA or similar engine. LOCATION: Prefer ACT or nearby. Can collect. CONDITION: As good as I can get. I am looking for a VX or VY V6 ecotech (auto) engine to replace the worn/rattly V6 in my VX S Pack. I have been quoted about $4000 to recon mine. Thanks.
