Hi. Did you find what the problem was? I have the same fault . I have changed the drive shafts fitted new discs, droplinks and new wheel hubs. Swapped the wheels around. Any advice would be appreciated

My partners beeing having issues with the car for the last couple of weeks going into limp mode Turn the engine off then on and it's fine but has been doing it intermittently for weeks Also had fuel rail pressure error so have changed this sensor and the filter (which CLEARLY hadn't been done on the service). Now it's come up DPF full, one mechanic just tried to do a force regeneration on it but it failed due to going into limp mode (may have been because of the fuel issue) but also the cooling fans started instantly kicking in so the temp wouldn't get up to temp so also changed the cooling temp sender as this can be caused as a back up if the sensor fails After taking it for a spin to try to see if the issue was fixed it still went into limp mode and cutting out as if someone's just ripped the battery out then draining the battery and even a jump start wouldn't start it so we charged the battery Now it's thrown up oil pressure low stop engine light to see that it's oil level is now stupidly high so after and oil change and filter (possibly 7/8L came out) It's now not starting or even cranking as if the battery's just completely dead that there's nothing in it to even crank it over although battery's fully charged and says heath it good And now I'm at a brick wall I really don't know what else to try

You wont be able to get one, you would have to extend it yourself, also if you DONT have touch and connect stereo, the screen will display no info except date and time anyway

The horn is under the battery tray and has its own battery connected to it. Good luck finding a replacement one, like everything with the antara, all the parts are like trying to find rocking horse poo. I wuld try disconnecting the tilt sensor under the passenger seat first and see if that fixes it, as passing cars ,trucks etc can set off the alarm by rocking the car and the tilt sensor if faulty will think its being moved.

Hi, I have felt a similar thing when coming to roundabouts - I’m advised that it could be the early stages of auto box failure. I also have a jolt when selecting drive when on a slight hill.

I have a 2014 CDTI with about 64k miles. The auto box has just started to jolt as it engages gear particularly if on a hill (up or down hill), but it’s inconsistent. My mechanic suggests it’s starting to fail. Can anyone advise on costs to replace with either a new or reconditioned unit. thanks Ferg

Hi, I live in Grimsby & I am looking for someone to swap a near side rear door. I have bought a replacement that has everything on it, so all it needs is fitting & sorting the central locking. Can anyone on here do this? If so any idea on cost. Happy to travel around 50 miles from Grimsby.

I've fitted new battery today, and it's made no difference unfortunately. I have disconnected it for now as the electric fan kicked in and wouldn't shut off until the battery was unhooked. I'm hoping that maybe overnight the electrics will discharge and when I reconnect the battery there will be an improvement. I have been told that there could be a fault in the cluster itself. So I might remove that and check it out.

I did a reset on the bsi unit , radio is set to uk now , have middle interior light on , when you start to undo the door connector it’s dash board lights up , air con lights up even though ignition is off , even turning on makes no difference, found earth post on inner sill at front both sides , have connected to earth as well just in case , now got another ignition and fuse box cheap , have noticed battery earth has various earths , I put power to electric mirrors and both work but doesn’t like it when I try to put windows up , all black wires in door but connection is coloured lol .

Hi, and welcome to the club! Wow, you certainly wouldn't lose that in a car park. I've always wanted a Holden, superb looking machine and a sound to match the looks

Hi....welcome to the club Good to have you onboard!

I would consider putting a new battery on if it keeps discharging You may find this will also cure the problem with the gauges

That sounds more like either a loose connection or a Can-Bus fault. I would start by doing a 'wiggle test' which is basically wiggling wires until you invoke the fault and the lights comes on Start with the door wiring where it goes into the door from the pillar

Jonah.68 did you get this sorted I have the same problem, have puts new glow plugs in but no change the spanner light still comes on and stays on until a restart after a few minutes running

Please, can someone help me? Where is the outside temperature sensor located on Grandland X?

For some reason my drivers window doesn't work, but...the damn thing always seems to want to work briefly after i use front and back washers. I'm baffled. Any ideas please?

Hi Just had mine done by luke I would highly recommend him brilliant service from start to finish very knowledgeable around vauxhall cars if it wasn't for him I would probably had to scrap my car

Hi all, 1st time on site, just need some advice please. Thinking of getting an insignia, possibly the 1.6 ecoflex, I'm 64 now, I don't want performance, I want economy , but MORE importantly comfort, ie, no 18 or 19 inch wheels, 16 inch give a better ride, can ANYONE recommend a car, my budget is 5k , I would like a car with the intelligent headlights, but understand these matrix headlights are not as good as the Audi, VW, BMW equivalents ? Is the refinement on the insignia as good as an equivalent age Mondeo, or is the insignia cabin a quieter place ? Hopefully someone can give me some advice. Thank you. Jerry

Hi there, does anyone have a pin map for a vauxhall 1.6 diesel engine (16 reg) e98 ecu as I have fitted a new loom and engine after an engine seize. Thanks JOhn

Hi all, I currently own a Corsa and I'm thinking of upgrading to a Crossland X. Having read a few reviews I'm now not sure if I should. Are they worth buying or should I look at something else? The model I am looking at is an automatic (not sure if that makes any difference) and has 38k miles on the clock Thanks

Does the Ultimate Nav have folding mirrors and if so how do you operate them
