Top engine gasket (cover) leaked oil when car was new. Replaced under warranty.
Steering Shaft needed replacing at 31000 Km's. Replaced under warranty.
Emissions warning light turns on & off randomly. Yet to be checked out by Holden. (and car is now out of warranty).
Apart from the above issues, this car has been great value for money.
It handles like a European Sports car, gets great highway fuel economy and looks good as well.
It is a dream to drive, very comfortable and these models appear to have a good re-sale value.
I actually wrote the above review. We got rid of the car today 18 October 2006. Not sorry either, the steering problem was coming back. (Clunking noises when the car goes around a corner). Also, the auto transmission was making some funny noises at low speed. This is all at 48200 Km's. Bye Bye Vectra.
Hello New Honda Civic...Yeah.
