Another Newbie
19. Mar 2007 at 22:55

Well hiya everybody

This is my first post here, not that im new to forums but this one is a new site to me.

Breif history, always love v6s had a cavalier v6 that i did loads of work to like 3ltr cams lightened flywheel uprated fpr ect

Went like stonk.

Finally its died plus to put it back on the road needs shed loads of work.

Decided to buy myself an mv6 to see what the difference is and break my cavalier.

So now im the proud owner of a 99 mv6 the only down point being the sloppy gearbox i do prefer a manual but you take what you can get i suppose.

Howdoo and welcome to the site. Thumbs Up!

Not too up on autoboxes, but I do know there is a fix of some sort that can be done via tech2 which may get rid of the 'sloppyness' you experience. Hopefully user The Boy will be along shortly and may be able to assist better. On second thoughts, punt a post into the help section - probably get a better, informed, response then! Thumbs Up!

Tech 2 available in Scotland. click on ->

Mar 2007 at 01:41 Welcome to the site As Hotel21 hinted at, there is a gearbox update that hugely improves the autobox. It still ain't a manual, but it is a very worthwhile update
