thank you , good job , cheers
Changed mine about 6 years ago still going good 220 on the clock.
I scored a trade in vz wagon, exec in the same color as yours too for $1500, 150k on the clock, honestly it’s great to drive and great on fuel. I’m an ex Holden mechanic and the alloytec gets a bad rap, but mainly because people don’t know how to look after them or just didnt. It’s really not a bad motor. 👍🏼
@pollock9231 mate I have to agree, these motors are ok with regular servicing, hence me saying you need to service these every 5k, but if you don't, they go to shit, and quickly. Unlike let's say ecotec v6, they're happy missing many servicing. Also vzs always have issues with bcm, ecus, they are a pain, this vz I paid 500 for. New tyres and 3 months rego, it was worth the gamble
@@lgsa7983 you got a solid rig for 500. Great color too.
@pollock9231 cheers mate, and thanks for your comment,
Do you have a link for the air filter you used? I’m sure it helps it breath a lot better
Bought one of these for my kids and it's gotta be the most forgiving kids quad you can buy. Very little vibration, nice and smooth, suspension is soft and will eat up anything. You can turn this thing sharp at full speed and it will not tip over, very confidence inspiring for the kids. Don't ram it through puddles then park it right away or the drum brakes will seize. A little tap with a hammer solves this though, no big deal.
put a switch in dash.
Same thing happened to mine bro but just got a new starter relay and it fixed it
I think yours is full cooked tho but mine was popping up with the same codes but I just got a new relay and it worked thank fuck or just wasn’t worth the 1-2k fix when I bought it for 2.5k
Mine has the check power train if you have any ideas on how to fix that or just take it to the mechanic?
Get a obd2 scan tool, they're great and cheap, highly recommend them if you own a vz ve commodore
Hi I left a comment on another one of your posts regarding where to get information about VZ. he has to do brakes ASAP and tie rod knuckle boot things to get through rego. How do you know what size rotors and pads to buy? Is there good brands such as pedders or repco ? Is there a workshop manual or somewhere else that tells you about parts for each varient of VZ? thanks. I like your get in there and do it approach. My son's first car and he needs to learn and save $$$.
Hi mate, sorry about late reply, all I done, was google repco on my phone, once on their online shop, you can add your car using your registration number and state you live in, from there you can type the part you need, their app will then suggest all parts that fit your make and model, cheers
My son bought a VZ for his first car. 2005 Lumina auto. Where did you get all your info from to work out what to do? What forums gave you the best information? thank you.
Hey, I'm on my second VZ. For any and all issues that have come up in either of my VZ's I've found the forums.justcommodores site to be super helpful. Google VZ commodore forums. It should be the first to pop up
Hey mate, replied to your other message cheers
Why do we need to watch you doing housework FFS??
Anyone no what oil is best to use
I use any diesel oil of a grade near the one factory one. I'm at 182 hours now, zero issues
Hay I sort of have same problem in morning go jump in my car take a lil bit to start up go for drive turn the car of and won’t start straight away it’s like it waiting for it to cool down again won’t start till 10 minutes later any idea??
What type of car mate? I'd say crank angle sensor can have those symptoms
Didn't work on my car and im stuck at shop's 😡
Sorry to hear that, bugga these vz commodore can be a pain
Hey mate just saw your VZ Breaks in two words video, helped a lot man cheers for that, just subbed, would be great to see you upload more! im still learning on how to work on cars, i got a VZ Sv6, just wondering if you have any advice on if i should get a tune or not, and how to go about that in the simple way, love your work mate!
Hi mate, thanks for nice words, I have a few things filmed but I'm not to happy with it, more or less just updates (boring) so as for more videos I'd love to upload more but with the cost of living and interest rates it's difficult to put money into the cars and content unfortunately, but I'm definitely working on it. Once I can order more parts, the videos will keep coming, as for your sv6, sadly the best thing I done with mine was sold it. Beautiful cars but I was spending alot of coin to keep it on the road. Seems to always have a fault, as for tuning I'm not sure where to start with that sorry.
Thanks for info. I have warning with fuel guage being low which my car is and had service light been on for awhile as it is due for oil change. Anyone needs to change ecu find someone that sells second hand ecu. You may have to get a body control so it can read each other. I already got one ecu before. Sad it looks like i have to get another.
I fixed one for someone - easy fix was to start it with a bypass button on the starter relay … Gives low fuel , gearbox fault and something else .. wire up with a fuse- button inside car - battery power - fuse - straight to 86 terminal on starter relay Start .. with button switch off Start with key - all good .. Saved a lot of money .. Anyone can try this . It’s not a repair but it works fine . I think the ecu is faulty and the can bus module - no parts available for these cars .. 👀 so… Just do this . Saved $2000 k about 😅 Cheers .
how much bypass button
Hi mate, definitely a cheap away around the issue. But it's not a fix, you'll still have engine lights and in my case my transmission was shifting very poorly. The way it was shifting and driving would eventually cause more issues down the road
Nice one man! Looking forward to seeing your progress. Sub’d ✅
Thanks mate, this engine is toast, just waiting to pick up another and tear it down and start again,
Thank you for this! 😊
Hope it helps 🙏
Ps...DRINK AND DRIVE...WTF😡😡😡
Never said I was drinking and driving, does look that way though 🙈
Is that a cattle dog
Red tan kelpie yes
my dad brought one with 165xxx and she's dead to to the world. she sounds like she just wants to start but never fires up. plugs and coils seem fine, and we did put some fuel into the intake chamber to try to get it to at least fire but still doesn't want to even idle for a second all am getting is service car any ideas anyone??
Dealing with the exact same issue. Trying to figure it out, but feeling I'm just gonna have to scrap it. She had a good run. R.I.P XD
great vid just did mine and discs replaced with vmax slotted not much dearer than standard discs protex blue pads and ceramasil greased the pins and anti rattle clips where pads slide,you deserve an rattle gun for after loosening the wheel nuts.
Hey I tried doing the method first time it started but now it’s not starting I just cranking may you please suggest something
Take the key out, lock and then unlock, then key back in and make sure it's on, try again
Hi mate any chance you could let me no the oil types u have chose or could anyone that has one mine is a 2021 model please
Weve had our 2021 for a little over a year... it seems to take a ridiculous amount of time to warm up before my daughter can hit the gas n start riding without it stalling... almost likes it's choking or too much gas...If it sits idling warming up for like 20 minutes then you can ride n it's ok....Anyone else have this issue?
Hi mate, I haven't got that issue, have you used the choke? Temperature where I live never really goes below freezing, even then, when it's has a cold start you can still ride it. But can't hit full throttle from idle until a couple minutes, but it's still very ridable,
So to swap out the rotor all it is is just removing 2 bolts from behind, pop off the rotor, put on the new one, replace the bolts and tighten with some locktite??? Same deal front and rear??
Basically yes, rear of most commodores, the handbrake is a small drumbrake within the rotor. So be sure not to have the handbrake off. Otherwise you can't remove, cheers
@@lgsa7983 brilliant.. thanks mate.
90cc is way too underpowered and it wouldn't pull a sailor off your sister
I just used your technique on neighbors car and it worked 👌🏻 thanks
I'm glad it's helped, nothing worse then a car that just won't start, definitely the way to go to move it around where you need it, as stated it's a temporary fix to get the car moving.
I just bought a raptor 90. For the after market airbox what does it do actually? I noticed it gave you more space next to the battery
Hy bro please this bike salf problem video
Hi . Just purchased my Yamaha raptor 90 for the little one and had a couple dramas with it , was turning off while I was riding on the first day I purchased it and thought maybe the fuel they put in it was pretty shit so I changed the fuel and realized there was metal shavings in fuel tank . Stuck a magnet in and took out a bit of crap and called the place where I purchased it . They picked it up couple days later and cleaned it all out and got it running again . The next day I tried to start it she turned on for a few minutes and turned off again as soon as I jumped on it . Couldn't get it to start again . What you guys reckon . She kicks just not starting . (No issues with battery )
Turn ur carburetor counter clockwise it should fix it if its not getting gas check the fuel line to but if it’s getting too much gas it will flood to fix that turn it clockwise but don’t full throttle the gas just give it a quick nudge and it should start but if this problem persists check the oil and the spark if both are bad u need to change them lastly check ur fuse under the seat sometimes it can cause that and buy or clean ur air filter
Is that the correct point to jack ? I am replacing the suspension today and need to get some jack stands under there but my vz is fully slammed so finding a spot to jack from is proving kind of difficult
Hi mate, from memory I jacked it from the K frame, which is more than strong enough, just make sure it's not going to slip as this would result in sump damages, if your car is to low to get to the K frame perhaps using the factory jack to first get your car off the ground, then use the trolley jack, as for jack stands, there will be body/chassis rails behind the front wheel and about half a foot inward towards the trans, they can definitely support the car, thanks for the comment, and have a safe day, just remember there is alot of stored energy in suspension, enjoy
Good video man, casual and didn’t make it over complicated, kept it short and sweet bro.
Thanks mate, I find lots of videos on UA-cam people just talk for the hell of it, I like to keep it simple as you might find with all my videos I upload, cheers
Do you have to do that everytime the car turns off and you want to start again??
Yea mate, everytime
Is there a tap to leak out gas? My little brother put rocks in the gas tank
You can definitely drain the fuel tank, as for the rocks I'd remove the tank and fish those out, will be no harm done, just don't run the dirt into the carb, even then, a good flush and clean will be all it'll need
What you want to short out is 87 & 30, not 85,..................that's why it doesn't work!!!!!
You can only start these things with a bent paper clip for so long, as the ECU is about to die & needs replacing. You'll need your 4 digit security code & have this done by a service agent with a G Scan or Tech2 scan tool. This time, UA-cam can only help you so much!
Yep, agree, I shared this because my commodore died in the most un convenient time. This video shows an emergency way to start and move the car to be repaired (which I do) my ecu wasn't replaced but repaired, small wires or wire tracks in the ecu brake apart from loads of heat cycles over its life. Thanks for watching
what happens when you don't have a security code, i guess it was changed, and have no way of finding out?
@lgsa7983 how much was it to repair the ecu? Haven't watched the whole video yet. Mines just started to do the "let's blank for a minute" when I go to start it but it's at random and it's fine once it's turned on..
Lmfao press unlock button right before you try to start it
Cheers for the video, I have a 2005 VZ SSZ Crewman with a LS1 5.7L in it . same thing happened only mine cranks over & fires but shuts down straight away. I'm planning on sending mine away to be repaired can you tell me the compant it was sent to, Was it Injectronics in Melbourne . as I said she cranks over but wont keep running, no engine light on dash & have lost all my gauge cluster & has a very low fuel alarm but I know tank is full, fuel pump is working & has 350kpa or 50 psi at rail. Holden has a lot to answer for, this is a shit idea. wished I'd known about the starter relay trick, as it cost me $411 to get it tilt trayed to the local Tumut Toyota depot then another $880 back to Canberra where she still sits. Been doing a lot of research just like you. Again appreciate your video. I do love my crewman & I'd like to see her live again.
ECU is fried
Any code?
I never had a computer, I think the holden dealership plugged one into it but it wouldn't connect.
@@lgsa7983 what year’s your car?

Hey buddy where do you get that stubble cooler from please. And loving the vids my youngest boy just got a commodore so these vids help totally
Hey mate, thanks for the comment 👍 glad you are enjoying the videos I find most videos these days are click bait and to much over explaining... hope your son has better luck with his commodore then I did with mine, and the stubby cooler is a yeti, great cooler just a little heavy.. you think you have plenty left yet it's empty... thanks Again and all the best
P I M MODULE IS WHAT GOES IN MOST CASES WHEN YOU SEE LOW FUEL ON DASH HOW EVER I HAVE HAD SOME WITH PIM AND ECU BUT MOST I HAVE JUST REPLACED THE PIM
Hey mate thanks for the comment, my ecu that's located at the front of the engine was sent away and refurbished.
Cheers bro, genius af
Hope it helps
Dyson IS still a legend dog. RIP mate, chase all the balls wherever you went. Been curious about a spacer lift, I need new tyres but I have wheels and tyres just need to lift the ute to fit them. Do you reckon an advertised 2" spacer kit will do that? Bit worried some manufacturers may be misleading with what they say.
Should work, all I needed to do was install the spacer and I got the 2" lift. Definitely happy, bang for buck. And car drives and handles the same as before
Hello friend, I'm Brazilian and I have exactly the same problem as you, as this car has few units here almost nobody knows how to work with it, could you tell me if it's necessary to change the module
Or have you fixed for this problem??Could you explain to me what I can do to fix my car, I'm lost asking my Australian friends for help here because no one can solve it
Hi mate and thanks for your message. The small wires in the ecu module (front of motor) break over time. You can send the ecu away to be fixed. A few places in Australia do this work. Because the ecu have codes in them and you need specialised computers to code in new ecus to you car, you might find this difficult from where you are in the world. I think your only real option is to send your ecu to Australia for repairs. So that you keep your unit and no need for specialised computers. Any more questions feel free to ask
Yes it's very reliable little truck! I too have one it's sj410 model 1996, In Army green colour, It goes everywhere, Where other heavy truck stucks, It goes🙂
They do go anywhere, mine had been in storage since this video, I do plan to bring it back to my channel. It's been sitting for over a year I need to do another revival on it
You just have to tap the cords and then chuck the relay in and start her up
An ecu isn’t very expensive
All Depending, I was quoted just shy of 2k to have the ecu replaced. I'm sure sure more places would and can do cheaper, but seeing these cars are anywhere from free to 5k or there abouts. So it's almost half or over what the cars are worth
@@lgsa7983 I got one installed for $550
So mechanics are quoting an ecu for the same price with a timing chain? What a bunch of tools 🛠
@@troycollett8540 I believe he means the reprogramming and fitment of ecu
