yeah really odd. I've just replaced the battery to be safe. so now if it happens again i know the TCM is actually buggered and not just playing up due to lack of voltage. car is running fine for the past week driven about 500km.

nope? well figured out there is a performance tuning mob near me that can do it and can just use a second hand chip to save money. however it stopped doing it after having my mechanic friend clear the code and he topped up the transmission fluid and put some water in the battery as it was...

so my car is displaying this error since Saturday, looking like going to have to replace the module. mechanic it was at said he can't replace it as it needs to be programmed by Holden, but they are quoting $900... seems a bit excessive. also need to get the damn car to them as with this error...

got this from a holden dealership to try and fix a problem with my aircon but turns out its the wrong part and they wont exchange or refund me. ITEM: Genuine Holden New Vacuum Solenoid suits Climate Control VT VX VY VZ Commodore LOCATION: QLD, Gladstone 4680 CONDITION: New PRICE...

i know this is an old thread but thought i would post as i had it happen to me again recently. turns out it was the alternator.

forgot to update this with the outcome. turns out the guy doing the work was a top bloke :) he ended up adding my bushings kit for me (Nolathane) which was for the entire car, and he did it in exchange for the boot lid (i told him not to worry about it as it was a tiny minor dint) and after...

I'll ask in the morning when I ring the assessor who just emailed me. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 2

oh ok cool that sounds about whats done on mine and like i figured maybe the mechanic is inflating prices due to insurance and him knowing they really have no other option unless they want to tow it to another town. yeah i dont think thats happening in my case. they are going off this one...

hi guys recently i was in an accident and am awaiting for the assessor to get back to me regards weather its a write-off or if they will do repairs. the mechanic had the car for 2 weeks but has sent in a quote now, i spoke to an aami agent and was told it was at $7.9k worth of repairs that...

thanks just a bit of whiplash, no one else was around luckily. im getting differing reports from mechanics etc saying if the kframe is broken its most likely a write off. would actually prefer insurance to write it off at this stage i think.

wrote it off i think :( spun there.... hit here... and just installed these new Bastien shocks 2 days ago. where i ended up... backwards.. engine looks like its got a bent k-frame :(

bugger just saw this awesome buy for the price :) have a new car to look for on my top list now!

still available?

for the rears? good to know! what about the fronts as i will be getting them down the line.

lol yeah there was a sale on one of the ebay stores. one of the downsides of working nightshifts lol i've found 1 place that will install them for me, quoting me $1800 for installation only. ouchies. maybe this wasn't such a good idea hah. oh well at least i've got the bits and can get the...

Hmm this is seeming like not such an easy endeavour. From all my research nolathane are supposed to be a decent brand but none of my suspension places around me will touch it as far as installing it for me :( Any suggestions? Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 2

yeah i got one i can get hold off from family wil see if i can just get that.

Yeah true I've been trying to look up how to do it but from all reports it looks about as easy as you say. So screw paying for that I'll spend the saved Labour costs on buying good quality bilstein shocks. Thinking the heavy duty instead of sports to suit my road. Also is it going to be much...

nevermind i went and got it anyway, at $375 for the EVOCOM5 kit brand new i couldn't pass it up.

can anyone give me a quick answer if the EVOCOM5 nolathane kit is the right kit for me. there is a sale on for the full kit and its going to last for the next 6hrs so i want to buy it now if it correct.

hey guys after some advice. its tax time and like every year most if not all of my money goes on my car. this time around most of it is going to the missus car as she hit a roo 2 days before tax came back, yay... but i have a budget of about $1300-1500 to get some stuff done that i've needed...

cheers yeah well i got the 120k service done first and got the mechanic to check the o2 sensors for me and a few other problems. he said the 02 sensors are fine, it came up with 2 fault codes when scanned which he reset and no errors have come up since i got it back from service, which has only...

bump, just need the location guys i can figure out the rest for my self. the problem went away for a few days and came back again tonight on the highway, it ended up going into limp home mode and man did that scare me.

your in the same boat as me, i have heard its an 02 sensor.

i have had one of these in my car since i brought it and never been able to get it to work cause i can't find the pincode for it :(

mines being doing this a bit lately as well and i had it checked by a few people who couldn't find problems with it. one said to replace the thermo but yeah was gonna charge some ridiculous amount so i said no. now recently i get a "check powertrain" message coming up and from searching it...

hi guys im new here so bare with me. just recently my car has started to "overheat" as in the light comes on in the dash saying it is overheating and it goes up to the hot area with the dial. but generally it just goes back down after a few secs/minutes. i've had it checked at a radiator...
