Camaro or Corvette coming to Australia?

Answered by Paul Gover · 14 Sep 2015

We hear lots of speculation but nothing solid yet. If it happens it's most likely to be the Corvette, which will be easier to convert to right-hand drive. GM International boss Stefan Jacoby told CarsGuide's Joshua Dowling in January: "We will bring a true sports car to Australia for the brand Holden."

Bright idea for spark plugs

Answered by Graham Smith · 08 Jan 2010

RUNNING a different fuel -- or even a cleaner through the engine regularly -- might well be a way of preventing the carbon build-up that leads to the problem with the plugs in the Ford V8. The problem is most people only realise there is a problem when the plugs break while being removed.

Chevy Trailblazer rack-and-pinion problems

Answered by Graham Smith · 12 Jun 2015

I presume it has been converted from left-hand drive to right, so I would be going back to the people who did the conversion, as it would appear there could be a problem related to the conversion. You need to start by finding out what components were used in the conversion, the steering rack being one of them. The next step would be to find a competent mechanic to fix it.

Chev Biscayne trye recommendations

Answered by CarsGuide team · 28 Oct 2010
