Timing Chain replacement.
On This one the Customer was the one saying he just wanted the timing chain replaced cause he new and another mechanic told him. and it was all about the price. [He was an employee of a friend of mine asking for a favor.]
This did not fix his issue engine light continued to come back on after driving the car for a while. He then blamed us , We rechecked our job was correct. yep all good.
Told him to replace the VVT Valves he did not want to, so he took it, and went to another workshop who rang me and we both agreed . But customer did not believe us. anyway i don't know what happened after that.
The Chains needed replacing anyway.
I created this video with the TH-cam Video Editor ( / editor )

I have a VE 2011 Omega, has 314000kms on original chains, still runs good.
Hi Phil after seeing this Clip all I want to do is get my daughters 2005 VZ SV6 down to you pronto...I have had such a run around on this timing chain issue ending in they are not designed to be changed - you seem to be right on the wagon ..It was my old company car fully Optioned Leather Sunroof etc..daughter has had for 5 years & loves it - but the chain is starting to get noisy on startup...I will call tomorrow --D
my ex police vz v6 alloytec runs fine. regular oil changes is the trick. I change my oil at 5k though. Goes hard too. Never had timing chain issues.
What is the build date of your VZ?
Yep. Change oil on time. Won't ever be an issue
That and run them hard to circulate oil.If run normal,timing crains don't get enough oil hence heat hence stretch.i also recommend oil flush.But end of the day interval service.
@@bigfella6629 it was bought in 2006 by WA Police Service in Maylands.
What was the "quick cheap price" ..?
how much did u do it for
Good video mate, I'm looking at purchasing a 06 VZ Calais with 135Ks on the clock. The guy said it has a full service history and listed that the timing chains had been replaced along with a trans flush plus full synthetic oil swaps. Is there any other major underlying problems with the alloytec that can be costly or should I look at a VY with the trust ecotec instead?
+toburnasin
Sounds good mate all the hard work done
Id buy the vy mate i have a vz much friendly car to the owner. Wish id never bought the vz
I've got a vy Berlina with the 3800 ecotec with only 176000ks on the clock. Was gonna sell it and buy a vz Adventra. That was until I did a bit of research. Keeping the Berlina.
Hey mate do you know what the deal wiith priming tensioners is? I've got 2 tensioners that I can easily push in out of the box, I wasn't sure if they needed priming first or something to tighten them up
No they don'tr need any priming, unless they are faulty ??? we use genuine ones.
is there a link to a website? i need this done to my sv6. estimated price?
Lanksey i got quited 2300 yesterday to this job.however i think its bn misdiagnosed as i changed the coil pack and plugs last night and the car althouggh noisy is alot better my mechanic sed it most likely timing chain but the cars only got 124 thou on its ks wise so if my chain has gone holden will be getting a piece of my mind
Hey just wondering if anybody has had done timing chain on ls1 vz and how much you guys paid cheers
Got a vx ecotec throwing p0012 changed the oil and filter. cam sensor and oil pressure sensor.
No idea what to try next does it have a vvt selonoid? My car had contaminated oil before i did the head gaskets on her
Never had this code before all that
Any ideas?
replace the solinodes
Dam, I never want a VZ, the VX is a much better engine.
Hey Phil I've just had mine done, all chains, tensioners and guides, because it had the rattle on start up, it took the mechanics a Day and half to complete the job, but I've got the car back and it still starts up with the loud rattle and jumpy revs, could this be a faulty new tensioner?
+That Guy Denis All good! Turned out to be oil pump, all fixed now
Can you replace with double row? And tell sniffles to blow his nose ay.
Does flooring the car and doing little skids stretch the timing chain
Sure
does the 98 vt 5litre have a chain also or belt
Big Rig believe its a belt
Yep chain
Definitely a chain, but a much better design than these pieces of rubbish, the chain in the 5 litre will probably last the life of the car
I think I have the same problem, not sure,
Any idea why I would be getting oil in my air intake,
mate just google pcv valve for your model.
@@PTPrecisionAutomotive I have,Holden want 360$ for the kit,it all looks pretty new,is there anyway of cleaning them up?any sprays why not
I just got the car,the engine/car is very clean,all parts look great for its age,,it's a vz v6 Commodore, 05,212kls,
Just seemed to be gutless at first,
I changed the oil,oil filter,fuel filter,air filter,spark plugs,cleaned mass air intake sencer, coils seem fines,
It has improved it but it's still not a 100% I feel lol,I had the older vy for years and that seems faster,but yet I'm told the vz Alloytec is 20% faster engine lol,,
Not a great idle on it either but it's not so bad,,
Either pvc or fuel injectors I guess lol,sorry for long texts
I just brought a vz 2006 Holden commodore.
I wasn’t aware that these cars need chain replacements.
It’s done over 195000 km.
I don’t know if it has ever been replaced.
How much does it cost to get this done at normal price and at how many km do the chains start wearing out and need to be replaced please?
Yeah hi. chains should only need replacing if there is an issue with the engine running. Phil 99076662
Good vid. The old 89 V6 was better lol. More parts=more problems.
Hahaha. True
WHY ISN'T THERE A DOUBLE ROW TIMING CHAIN ? LOOK HOW THIN THE CHAIN IS.
That seems to be common on a lot of car engines today, Honda is the same.
Had this problem with my 2007 3.6 Rodeo back in 2012, vehicle only had 89000ks on the clock when the timing chain problem reared its ugly head...$3000 to fix, what a bloody joke, GMH should be ashamed of themselves.
they are ashamed thats why theyre going out of business ...... i have three a vtss 5 litre a vs 3.8 eco tec ute and an hz 202 ute .... had few others too ,, most brands are shit after mid 2ooo
this is much more prevalent on the Post 2006 alloytecs because they switched to a cheaper german Chain and lowered the power for the Euro emissions. see ukcar.reviews/holden_LY7.php for details
@@Voltuss5 Yes I believe they changed the chains January 2006 so anything before you should be safe..
Hey mate
Where are you guys located
Hi Mate we are in Balgowlah on the northern beaches
How much did it cost?
please call
where's the carby
Pontiac G8 LY7 owner/victim checking in.
just put a 5.3 6.0 6.2 ls in and ride on
@@acemay3 I'd just like too point out that converting a V6 VE series too any V8 is a very expensive and timely job cause of the computers anything electronic has too be changed including the body loom best off just swapping another ly7 in and selling it then buying a V8
@@ESISTTIGER wow that suxs because we get a 5.3/ 6.0 with harness and computer for $800 bucks in a running truck. A lot motors we can hear run before we pull it out. A swap will run with all parts is around is $1800. Now don't get me wrong I am in the south of usa and labor rates here are 95 bucks an hour. so labor time on the chains are 4 to 5 hours plus parts. Is what 800 to 1200 dollars is what we charge here in the usa plus auto shop make money on the parts to. How do I know this I work as a head mechanic at the same job for 30 years before retiring. A LS swap now a days on 10 year car is cheaper than fixing a mod 4 cam v6 motor.
Can you do this to my 05 sts 3.6? Im just anout to pay 2 do a timing job before the problem im at 70k miles amd will save the money and run it 2 the end if you could could do this
@@acemay3 it cause every electronic in the vehicle is security protected and when you change one thing you have too change all because the security code gets thrown on the electrics and also the electrics in them is specific too the engine a loom in a V6 is not compatible with anything but that V6 sadly but Holden did it too prevent people from stealing the electronics of the car and it carried over too the export models (Pontiac G8, Chevrolet lumina) and I also makes modding the electrics harder too.
Hi i am Peru
Hi Peru.
what a shit motor. up the mighty barra!!
mate do not buy an alloytec motor they are rubbish stick with the old trusy ecotec v6 in the vy best motors ever made ecotec
kwang61 amen anything after 2011 is just grr, stupid cam covers on em. Blew 2 chains trying to mod my one. Over something as simple as that, gm can just be a bit careless. Great motors though. I pull heaps out of mine...8.8sec is enough for me
Anything after 2011? What? alloytecs are in vz's all the way from 04
ketaminecuzz im saying the earlier model 3.6s are shit, the modern ones in the ve vfs are better but still both aint got nothing on the L67
Get a barra!
Damn straight man.
Why Even Put This up No info What So Ever
Not having a go mate . But gee your video's you have up are not great or helpful either. if you want more info on these i have other videos on these engines just look.
@@PTPrecisionAutomotive bloke I was searching for info on timing marks for a VZ LY7 engine and yeah my videos are very much shit as I wouldn’t have a clue on how to shoot them ,anyway stay safe bloke and power on
Just buy another car....it would be cheaper and less stress
hahaha Sure
