I came across this in the Betoota Advocate. Worth sharing I thought.

They're usually pretty good with the car articles; I suspect one of the Beetoota crew may be an auto journalist who has seen the light...

Interesting and probably owned a BA at some stage. The rag certainly brightens my mornings.

I'm gettin me a commodore. Seem to be pretty safe from spontaneous loss of control if 9/10 falcons suffer from it. #mangless

Grabbing my power window for 10 years to help it raise if even slightly wet was always a highlight.
And oh. The door actuators. These little bastards seriously (never had a problem in any car before or after) almost sent me to the loony bin (it may have) Power steering pump *ed me over as well continually. Loved the Turbo though for 10 years despite this!! Brilliant car for the money!! |

Just watch out for the trees. So many of the Commodores have merged with trees.

Enjoyed the read,had 3 BAs first two both utes ie XR6 then XR8 the pair of em never let me down and no issues whatsoever,Xr8 was starting to get the timing chain rattle when i moved it on ironically the currently owned GT-P has a door actuator issue and the hoodlining is currently holding its own with the help of a few sewing pins no biggie and its only my own laziness that they havent been sorted,most annoying fault is the mixer shaft in heater going,expensive and not something i want to have a crack at myself,whatever there faults in my opinion with some decent rims and sat right the B series Falcons are one of the best looking Falcons ever produced so in the shed it stays.

Anyone flogged out a gear shift cable on a BTR yet?
