Stuff you should know
The Holden Commodore VF was a significant model in the Australian automotive landscape, produced between 2013 and 2017. Part of General Motors’ Holden division, the VF series represented the final evolution of a locally designed and manufactured large sedan, marking the end of an era for Australian automotive manufacturing.
Built on the Zeta platform, the VF Commodore offered both sedan and wagon body styles, along with a ute version. The model was praised for its refined design, improved build quality, and enhanced fuel efficiency compared to its predecessors.
Under the bonnet, buyers had a choice between various engine options. These included a 3.0-litre V6 producing 185 kW, a more potent 3.6-litre V6 pumping out 210 kW, and a 6.0-litre V8 that churned out 270 kW. Some models were equipped with a 6.2-litre V8, delivering even greater performance.
Transmission options included a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic, and the range was rear-wheel drive.
Fuel economy was improved across the VF range, with the V6 engines offering consumption figures as low as 9.0 litres per 100 kilometres.
The interior of the VF Commodore was noted for its higher-quality materials and more modern design. A wide range of technological features was included, such as the MyLink infotainment system, a reversing camera, and parking sensors.
Safety was a strong point for the VF series, with a 5-star ANCAP rating. Standard features included Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Traction Control System (TCS), and a comprehensive suite of airbags.
The Holden Commodore VF was available in a number of trim levels, catering to a broad spectrum of buyers from the fleet-oriented Evoke to the performance-driven SS V Redline.
With the closure of Holden’s manufacturing facilities in Australia in 2017, the VF marked the end of Australian-built Commodores. Its legacy as an icon of Australian motoring continues, and it remains a popular choice among enthusiasts and families alike.
What goes wrong
Exterior:
- Some owners have complained about some o the exterior panels seeming excessively thin.
- Complaints have been raised regarding paint issues, such as fading and peeling, specifically in the earlier VF Commodores. However, it appears that Holden addressed this concern with the VF Series 2, as no complaints about paint deterioration were found. Nevertheless, there are still widespread reports across the range indicating that the paint finish and thickness can be inconsistent.
- A growing number of reports highlight concerns about sunroofs developing rattles. While the remedy for this issue is reportedly not overly complicated, the fact that it occurs is inconvenient. Prospective buyers are advised to inspect the sunroof carefully during their evaluation.
- It is recommended to check the functionality of the wipers and ensure that the windscreen washer jets operate as intended. The pump for these jets contains a filter that may become blocked, but addressing this issue is generally a straightforward fix.
- Potential buyers should also verify the proper functioning of the wipers themselves. Some instances of wiper failure have been attributed to insufficient greasing of the wiper motor at the factory. It’s crucial to confirm whether the vehicle underwent the recall issued by Holden to rectify this problem.
Interior:
- A strange smell could emanate from the HVAC vents due to condensation on the evaporator core issue. A service bulletin to address the issue by activating an after blow function through their diagnostic software.
- Some owners have complained about poor-quality interior panels. Specifically the centre console lid breaking, and had to be replaced multiple times.
- There are reports of aircon leaks.
- Potential issues may arise with the functionality of certain buttons in VF and VF Series 2 Commodores. This can be attributed to the breakdown of insulation on the wiring, leading to electrical faults. In severe cases, these faults have been reported to cause complete vehicle failure.
- The MyLink infotainment system has garnered numerous complaints regarding its buggy performance, particularly in relation to the Bluetooth system. However, it’s worth noting that the unit in question is reported to operate without issues.
Mechanically:
- Oil leaks in aging VF Holden Commodores, commonly found around the engine block or oil filter housing, can reduce engine efficiency and fuel economy and should be promptly addressed.
- Brake pads are known to wear prematurely.
- There are reports of issues with transmissions, more commonly on 6-cylinder models .
- Some suspension components are known to wear quickly.
- The alternator can become damaged over time, leading to issues like drained batteries or dim headlights.
- Coolant leaks, often starting as small puddles with an antifreeze smell, are a common issue due to wear from heat and pressure. If left unchecked, these leaks

- The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system may become faulty, leading to inconsistent operation or total failure.
- In terms of the V8 engines, common issues include oil leaks, particularly at the rear main seal and sump.
- Water pumps have been known to fail, and complications may arise with the coolant temp sensor and its corresponding plug at the rear.
- The harmonic balancer can also experience issues, and misfires may occur from injectors, coils, and coil leads.
- Premature wear of engine mounts is more common in V6 models, although the V8 can suffer too.
- The chain tensioner, while sometimes silent, may result in plastic bits ending up in the sump.
- The Active Fuel Management (AFM) system, designed to deactivate four cylinders during cruising to save fuel and reduce emissions, can encounter issues. Many owners opt to delete the AFM.
- Complications with lifters and camshafts can occur. Lifter failure can lead to damage to the camshaft.
- Regarding modifications, the options are extensive, but caution is advised, especially for budget-conscious individuals. Cam and tune modifications have proven successful in enhancing power, but these modified setups may be on borrowed time. Reputable engine builders and tuners recommend investing in quality for longevity.
- When considering forced induction or extensive modifications, packages from the likes of Walkinshaw or Harrop are recommended due to their design, engineering, testing and subsequent reliability. Regardless of this, it’s crucial to ensure the fuel system is in good condition and the vehicle is properly tuned.
- In its standard, unmodified form, a well-serviced V8 is considered highly reliable. It is not uncommon for these vehicles to reach 300,000km with no serious issues.

Should you buy it?
This all depends on which Holden VF Commodore you’re buying, and why you’re buying it. That’s because on a spectrum of “worst car they’ve owned”, to “this is the best car ever”, there seems to be a VF Commodore owner at every point on that spectrum. That said, most are up the positive end. That’s why it’s crucial you don’t buy the wrong one.
Many of the issues we found were occurring more frequently as the car ages (yes, like most cars). So you’re better off trying to find the newest, lowest kilometre one you can find. If your budget can only stretch as far as getting one that’s pushing 10 years old and has a couple of hundred thousand kilometers on it, there are other family sedans you should probably look at. Though it may not have as much runt as you’re hoping for. Which brings us to why you maybe should buy one…
There are plenty of reasons why you should buy a VF Commodore, it’s the reason that made the Commodore a mainstay of our roads for 70-odd years. They offer something truly unique. Family car practicality, grunty but refined power from the V6s, and raucous power from the V8s, all honed and tuned by Australia, for Australia, and it really is a shame that it’s gone. Plus, the VF Commodore was the last of the “true” Commodores before the ZB came along. Whether or not the ZB is a “true” Commodore will be debated for years to come.

If it’s those things that attract you to buying a VF Commodore, it’s unlikely you’ll be swayed into buying something like a V6 Toyota Aurion. So please, if you’re in the market for one, it’s crucial you do your homework. Find the best quality, lowest kilometre one you can find, go over it with a fine-toothed comb, be sure to get a pre-purchase inspection and if it looks like it’s been trashed by someone who has an inflated opinion of their driving abilities, walk away.
