1993 Holden Berlina VR review from Australia and New Zealand
"Good all around car that can easily be done up"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission went and turned out to be burn out back clutches in 3rd and 4th.
Voltage Regulator burnt out. Bearings in alternator collapsed and alternator caught on fire.
Fuel Pump seized up and burnt out.
Water Pump leaking and car was over heating.
Fuel Regulator failed and car took ages to fire and ran rich.
HT Leads failed.
Sump and engine pan gaskets badly leaking.
Oil cooling hoses kept on breaking.
Power steering rack badly leaking.
Central locking not always working properly, sometimes only locks 3 doors.
General comments?
Good all round sturdy car, very economical in long distance only.
Plenty of spare parts (cheap) available from non-dealer places.
Great Power, cold air-con, and very comfortable.
