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...

Hey guys, T5 manual swapped vs ute shaking/vibrating in any situation I’ve narrowed it down to the engine because it Is constant idle, driving, clutch in, clutch out, neutral, in gear It’s always rough as guts, but not missing? Has a rattle from plenum/top end somewhere, don’t know if it’s...

I’ve recently started getting an unusual noise in my MY10 SV6 manual ute. It happens mainly as I reach high revs, about 3k+, and is most obvious when letting off the throttle. Upshifting stops the noise once you release the clutch and the revs drop. If you let off the throttle without shifting...

OMG where do I start? So the VZ ute had an oil leak, I traced it to the timing cover and since it was such a big job I booked it in at our mechanic to replace. When I got there, the water pump **** itself so that needed replacing as after I degreased the engine bay, it was spewing coolant out...

Hi guys, looking for any advice regarding a rear end vibration. I recently had a diff upgrade done (4.1 gears and a torsion/torque worm LSD). While driving back home I noticed a vibration while driving at 85-100k/hr. The next weekend while driving the car around the block the gearbox decided it...

Morning guys! I have noticed a really annoying vibration / rattle coming from the glove box door of my 2006 VE Calais. It appears to be in or around the lock it's self. Really ruins the driving experience when you have an annoying rattle. So back to my question, does anyone know how to remove...

I recently bought a 4-speed auto V6 '95 VS Commodore with only 180,000km, totally straight and nanna driven all its life. There are just a couple of things I want to know so I can fix it; 1) only in foward gears (not reverse, park or neutral) it makes a vibration when stopped with the brakes...

Hi. Just wanted to know if anybody knew what was going on with my VYII Berlina... Whenever I go over bumps in the road (ie. Dips, Potholes etc), the steering wheel gets a lot of vibration feedback and if you don't hold it, you can actually see it vibrate by itself. The whole column seems to...

Gday all, Just driving around today around on the freeway, ect and i thought i'd put the boot in at a set of lights, only to hear this unearthly rattle/vibration coming from the mid/mid right section under the hood. Since then i have noticed the sound whenever the car pulls past about 3000rpm...

I have a vibration that I suspect is a problem with the tailshaft. Took the car in for a full service, new tyres, the lot, and asked them to check the vibration. They found that 2 of the 4 centre bearing bolts were gone from one side so they replaced them. They said that they couldn't see...

I have just finished fitting a L67 and box. :dance: Something is running out of alignment, I was thinking torque converter, as the vibration can be heard from bell housing the strongest, (only when car is in gear) so I went about changing to standard torque converter out of my N/A. as fair as...
