"Worst of the Commodores"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Water Pump

Carburetor rebuild

Alternator

Speed gauge

Ignition Coil

door handle opener

3 speed Gear Box Rebuilt

tie rods

engine valve springs broken - needed rebuild

power steering pump leaked.

General comments?

I should of listened to my mates on this one.

Of all the commodores built this was probably the worst.

The infamous black 202 was a shocker and the EI was worse.

Probably the reason holden quickly moved to the 3.0 l efi in the vl. The Kingswood I had previous with a red 202 was a much more reliable engine and

cost me far less money and heartache.

Sorry, but I think you don't know what you're talking about. As an owner of a VK Berlina efi 202 black, I found this review rather insulting to holden fans and drivers. The only thing that has ever gone wrong with mine is the starter motor as all cars need eventually. And they are the best motor in my opinion ever brought out.
