A nice and simple question... I've just checked my reg documents after getting insurance quotes today and notice that the DVLA have the in-correct information down for the engine CC(its down as a 5667)... Before anybody says i have a ringer i would like to point out that the engine number and everything else do in fact correspond between car and paper work... Can somebody tell me what the actual CC capacity on their docs is for an LS2 6litre so that i can amend and send them back to the DVLA please biggrin

seem to recall when I bought mine there was a discussion re this and apparently there were a number of cars "incorrectly" registered with the dvla - think my 5.7 was down as a 6.0 - dealer actually had to go to Vauxhall to get it confirmed from the chassis number.

Sean if it's any consolation mine is down as a 5.7 as well. On the net as that as well. Spent loads of time on the blower to different people, at the end of the day the insurance company didn't see any probs. The only suttle giveaway with mine is that the front half of the car is silver and the back half is red. very nice.biglaugh

Its not a big deal, I had exactly the same thing when I bought mine. The actual capacity is 5967cc.

All you need to do is give a chap called Jonathan Bell a call from VX, he is the Vehicle Registrations Systems and Type Approval Coordinator (01582)427288. Let him have the VIN and he will do the rest (I.e let the DVLA know). Then you will get a nice new V5 in the post which is correct. Its a 10min job.

Rhetorical question... Simples or a load of chew??? Why o why was i being honest tumbleweed The DVLA strike again with a letter in the post today stating that my car is down as 360g/km Co2 (this must be as per a 5.7?) apparently as informed by the manufacturer at the date of registration. My original question to the DLVA was that mine is down as a 5.7 when it should be a 6 litre, no mention and no sign of new docs with the amendment apart from a poxy letter!!! I can just see a long drawn out conversation on Monday morning to the DVLA and getting no where!!! banghead

I just done a search and im sure i will be corrected if wrong but please feel free if i am..

6litre V8; Feb 2005 - 23rd March 2006 Band K - 23rd March - 31st July 2006 Band M. However, both churn out 384g/km Co2, all i want is the 5.7 changing to the 6 litre FcensoredKing WcensoredKers

You will need a letter from Vauxhall. Otherwise you will not see your log book again!

My registration document is also inaccurate.

Mine is a VZ CV8 and yet the max net power figure relates to the earlier model so is showing as 245 and not 260.

The 'mass in service' also looks wrong as it doesn't match the kerb weight as shown in the handbook.

The CO2 figure is also wrong.

It used to bother me and was going to get it changed but to be honest I have come to think it doesn't actually matter to me.

It would appear that someone at Vauxhall hasn't been paying enough attention to detail.
