    Cranky Commodore
    Answered by Graham Smith · 5 November 2009

    I THINK your dad is on the money. The crank angle sensors are notorious for giving trouble in these older Commodores.

    Vibrating calais
    Answered by Carsguide.com.au · 4 December 2003

    You've done just about everything possible and seemingly without finding the cause of the problem. The Commodore of that era is prone to driveshaft vibrations. I would suggest you have the driveshaft angles checked as that is often a source of problems like you describe. It is almost certainly a drive-line problem.
