Holden VE Commodores!

Any of you fellas (or ladies) own one? I own a Pontiac G8, which is just a re-badged VE, and was curious if any of you have had issues with your suspension, specifically Ball Joints and Control Arms? They seem to be a common problem with the G8s here but GM (supposedly) can't figure out what the problem is??

Hey Drew AWESOME choice mate!!

Don't have a VE but back in the day I owned a VN so essentially a MUCH earlier version....

To my knowledge this isn't usually a prob til a lot later in their existence, like maybe 5-10 years on....?

I'd be concerned if you are hearing noises now.....

My wife has the VE SV6. So far we have not had problems but the car has only done 12000 miles. (had it since new)
I have been told by another VE owners tho that they do have a problem with the rear left hand tyre. It wears out faster that the others. Sorry could not help any more
