Missing a light
Answered by Carsguide.com.au · 17 Mar 2006

HOLDEN generally holds parts for 10 years, but the VQ was released in 1990 so the company no longer stocks parts for it. Try phoning wreckers that specialise in Commodores, but the light will be hard to find because so few VQs were made. You could also try eBay.

Fuel and his money
Answered by CarsGuide team · 21 Sep 2006

THE V8 Adventra was a bit of a dog in many respects, but 20 litres/100km is a bit too high. The Adventra is a heavy old nail so I would expect it to be pretty thirsty. I would think it should get 16-17 litres/100km on average. The only thing you can do is to make sure all is well with the engine and the electronics controlling it, make sure your tyres are inflated correctly and that wheel alignment is correct.
