1998 Holden Acclaim VT review from Australia and New Zealand
"Very Reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Traction Control light comes on a lot of the time for no apparent reason.
Since a car service 800kms ago with the Holden dealer, The Traction Control light, ABS light, Airbag, Engine light and the electrical light illuminate whilst driving.
The holden dealer diagnosed the problem to be a fault with the Front right wheel hub ABS sensor.
This was replaced with two second hand units (separate installations) from a car wrecker, and having the computer reset at the Holden dealer.
The problem is still on going. Can any body solve this problem?
General comments?
The Commodore is a very stable car, even had the back wheels adjusted to stop tyre wear.
Just want to fix this niggle with the electrics!
