I'm trying to find the correct part for a vauxhall insignia 2010 cdti The part in question Im told isa hand brake module Ecua33g Not really got any more info than that

Hi Phil. I've just done some Google searching, and found that it looks like you have to get to it from under the wheel arch. Removing the plastic liner will give you access to the lock mechanism. Hope this helps. Andy.

Maybe better to go for a reconditioned unit with a good warranty The fluid in the existing box will tell a story of whether the clutch plates are worn out - smells of burnt toast and the filter should have trapped lots of debris. Which means the death knell for that gearbox.

Ok thank you for taking the time to respond. I did hear they were weaker than the MK3 Mondeo and not that great for towing. My thanks

Vauxhall gearboxes are renowned for being weak but still carry on until they finally go - which can be years, running with noisy gears, poor selection, etc

Check the large fuse / fuseable link for damage (e.g. cracks or burn marks) Also, check the battery condition as this can drop to a low voltage when starting and this can flag fault codes

Grey/Blue smoke could be oil being burnt....valve seals possibly. Does the smoke smell of oil? Does it occur when hot or cold?

Hi. I have and tried two different ones. For some reason the OEM one on a SRI seems between the diameters of the various threads!

Have you looked at the ones in Halfords? I'm sure they have different size connectors in the range

Not entirely sure, but try holding the power button or maybe even the brightness level should switch to low illumination

Let us know how you get on with it

I have had my Astra in and out the garage for months now. fault: intermittent driving and it feels as if it’s bad fuel or fuel not getting through. go into 1st gear and the acceleration feels as if it’s chugs as I drive. Go into 2nd ok for minute then same problem. had timing chain changed/spark/new Cat also. plugs/valves all done. They tested the fuel pressure and it was fine they said. Engine management light comes up every 2 wks or so. The code is related to camshaft position. Picking car up again today and they can’t pin this down. The mechanics say they have tried everything. anyone had similar weird problems. Or can enlighten me on an option for the problem. Thank you for any input. I don’t want to get rid of my car, unless I have too.

Yeah iv got a breaker bar coming today will give it a go on the car and the impact wrench and hopefully it will loosen up, been waiting for this rain to stop were I am lol.

Superb figure to achieve.....well done Andy

I've usually kept the vehicle weight on the ground and used an impact wrench on the nut and its worked. As it is rubber mounted at the top of the damper then this can absorb some of the impact from the wrench and cancel out the torque being applied. Also may be worth using a long breaker bar if you can get it in the space Can always spin it on a couple of turns to jack it up again Maybe take it to a garage with a bigger impact wrench to see if it shifts

I managed to get my speedo reading the other day on a special figure. It works out that I've also done just over 2000 miles since the mot in February.

Guidance/ advice reqd, The central locking on the filler flap has begun to screech when locking and unlocking as though metals rubbing on metal. I can't see how to get access to it unless its behind the boot liner. My Haynes doesn't even mention it surprisingly. Want to exam and sort it before it craps out and stops working. I've tried hosing wd40 through the lock bar aperture but as I can't see its just spray and prey, and so for its not helped. Any of you guys delved into this? Cheers, Phil

Hi everyone, Newbie here, I’ve had an insignia now for just over 1 year and I just wanted to share a spreadsheet I’ve been using to log my mileage. It’s 100% geek mode so please bear with me. As a quick guide it’s a 2014 cdti ecoflex with 163bhp standard, I’ve had it remapped recently (noted on the sheet) to around 210bhp the tuner tells me. I’ll keep updating it, be interesting to see how the remap has effected mpg too. I drive to work 5/6 times a week only 11miles away from home so not amazingly far away to be classed as a long commute. It’s averaging 41mpg I thought it would have been higher tbh but I think it’s down to the short trips to and from work. Please let me know if it’s any use to anyone. Feedback welcome. Thanks.

Got petrol 1.4 turbo Sri when weather is hot/car parked in sun have warning alerts service/ping alerts ESC/SERVICE power steering drive with care spent£800.00 last year at vauxhall on diagnostic machine not find error code except for faulty purge valve had it replaced did not have any issues due to no hot weather until last wkend and issues started again spoke to vauxhall garage all they said was bring it in and put on diagnostic machine again at £140.00 an hr

My son has a 2016 Corsa SRI which has intermittent DAB reception. Starting with the easier fixes first and have tried and failed to find a replacement aerial. All the ones I've tried have either too large or too small threads. Can anyone suggest where to look for the right size replacement?
