Usually suspects is coil pack or harmonic balancer sensor
A common ecotec problem and something myself and a few people I know only just found out hahaha. Is a little hose that runs from the back of the block underneath the intake manifold/plenum and connects to the underside of the throttle body. It's a vacuum line and it comes of very easily and is hard to put back on if you have big hands. My gf had to do it because she has small hands lol

I'm having trouble understanding you, Youssef, but I think your solution, if Holden Australia can't help you and nor can Ultra tune (for all your auto electrical needs), and an insurance job isn't a viable option, then you just must burn it.

Hi there I just bought a 2004 Holden Calais sedan done 203,000 km the start up very well but after driving for half an hour I can smell burning oil and a slapping noise coming from the right rocker .any idea what the problem is
1 answer
First, a vent air freshener is advised. Now the burning oil smell problem is solved, only drive the car for maximum 28 minutes at a time.
Brianna H.asked
What brake fluid should I use for my 2003 Vy Commodore
3 answers
Dextron Three
Dexron 3 fluid is for your power steering and transmission in a ecotec. Dot 3 or Dot 4 is for your brakes.
Save dollars and help the environment by using your everyday olive or vegetable oil. Your car will love you for it

I disconnect battery and when reconnect it, my key won't turn in the ignition & the imobiliser stuck on as imobilizer light is on and wont go off in dash. I have use key manually to open door cause remote buttons dknt work. Can you help PLEASE
1 answer
Do you have a spare key? Tryy that.
If that doesn't work either the keys and the BCM (body control module) will have to be recoded. Its not a hard job and any GOOD auto electrician should be able to do it.

Yes its the immobilizer padlock you need to replace the key battery or you can buy a new key from Holden the key number should be on the shaft of the key.
