    Holden Commodore: Winding noise in wheel

    It won't be the sway bar, but it could be a wheel bearing. The best course of action is to have a mechanic assess it for you and replace the bearing if necessary.

    Holden Commodore: Thermostat gauge
    Answered by Graham Smith · 5 July 2011

    The important thing about where the needle sits is not so much where it sits on the scale, but that it’s always in that position. In other words you need to be concerned if it suddenly starts to sit in a different position to normal. I wouldn’t expect the needle to move much going up or down hills, normally they stay pretty much in the same position. Check that the thermostat is the correct one, and that it’s not stuck.

    Misfiring Commodore Lumina
    Answered by Carsguide.com.au · 28 June 2011

    It’s probably an ignition issue so start by checking the spark plugs and leads, and perhaps replace them if they haven’t been replaced in a while.

    Ask Smithy Xtra Commodore excess water use

    Have a mechanic do a leak check on the head gasket to see if it isn’t leaking there.

    Ask Smithy Xtra incorrect fuel gauge
    Answered by Graham Smith · 10 May 2011

    It’s normal practice for carmakers to leave a small reserve in the fuel tank when the gauge indicates that the tank is empty so you don’t completely run out of fuel before you get to a service station. If you really wanted to have the gauge recalibrated take it to an automotive instrument maker.
