HERV35

Hi Andy, Any idea on costs and timing at this stage?? Thanks Jas

Thanks Andy, Long drawn out process thanks for keeping us all in the loop jas

Hi all, Well to keep everyone up to date and after seeing how many views this tread has had thought I would add the out come. Dealer took the car back AGAIN and could not fault had it go into limp mode again got consumer affairs involved dealer farmed out the work to a guy in Granville who found the problem was O2 sensors ?? Apparently the V35 3.5 has 4 O2 sensors not 2. Any way the car has now done another 10 klm's with no issue thanks for all the advise though.

I was hopping that you might be able to give me the specs for the oil Ive been looking but no luck so far

Thanks for all the advice guys. Took it back to the dealer and they said thery could not fault the box but, They SAY they changed a solanoid, but they couldnt produce the solanoid (convenient) By the sound of things they are hopping the car will be out of warranty by the time I have a BIGGER issue

Thanks for all the ongoing hassle Andy keep us posted Cheers Jas

Thanks Chris, Have you heard of this specific porblem before??

Yes that sounds about right Pete, any ideas what would make it go in to limp mode after being driven for some time with no issues then to do it only on very odd occasions ??

Thanks Stephen, I will do that but its not so much a case of slipping but when this happens it it slike its decreasing the gears available and it wont flip to manual mode

Hi all, Im hopping some one can help with this we have recently picked up our V35 350GT8 2002, Most of the time the car is fine but twice the car has been on the Highway and twice the car has appeared to start slipping, ie. revs increase but the speed does not to the extent that the car is doing 100klm/h and doing 4500rpm (there is still drive there) at which point I pulled over let the car sit for a minute then once we had taken off it was fine. Has any one heard of this before???

Thanks Andy, Great work, keep us posted Jason

G'day, Any updates on the language conversions from Xanavi yet Cheers Jason
