1993 Holden Acclaim VR review from Australia and New Zealand
"Fantastic family car cheap to run"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This car has been fantastic hardly any things have gone wrong.
Water Pump has been replaced twice
1st- 60000 2nd- 240 000
Fuel pump replaced 180 000.
Head light globes seem to blow every 6 months.
Crank angle sensor has been replaced twice
only because Holden Dealer didn't align it properly the first time and they admitted this - Steinborner Holden - Gawler.
This is all the problems the car has had in its 310 000km long life.
I am not complaining.
