  1. I would probably list in on eBay for an amount you would like to see for it and then can be your Starting Price and if it doesn't bid up to that amount then you know you've pitched it too high and start to drop it until it gets bids
  2. Hi....welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard!
  3. I would look at the genuine oils from the dealership as sometimes their prices are quite reasonable through their trade outlet
  4. Hi Steve.....welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard!
  5. Try this company https://catman.co.uk/
  6. It sounds like the clutch is dragging which means the driven plate is being slightly grabbed by the pressure plate and not being completely disconnected from the rotating flywheel A poor quality clutch kit can do this and does get better when hot
  7. Sounds like you have a valid claim if they advertised the vehicle sale with that as a sales benefit let us know how you get on with it
  8. I would first test the battery for deep discharge to see if it is still powerful enough to run the car If okay then move to the earth leads and check their connections from the battery to the chassis earths
  9. its possible but would help to isolate the noise exactly to know what component it is coming from
  10. struggling to visualise the rubber wheel have you got a picture of what it looks like?
  11. think it may be the expansion bottle overflow hose which allows coolant to expel into the bottle
  12. Maybe the sensors have been connected up wrong....have a look at two sensor near each other on the engine around the glow plugs area that may have been disconnected and reconnected wrong
  13. maybe cheaper and easier to replace with an aftermarket unit that will still function the same but have more features and easier to update try IceBoxAutos who do systems to fit your car https://www.iceboxauto.com/vauxhall-opel-insignia-2014-17-9-navi-carplay-android-auto-110-bt-dab-8core-dhg2976
  14. Not entirely sure, but if you have changed the coolant sensor then have a look at the radiator and see if there is another sensor as this may be a thermotime sensor for controlling the fan temperature and run time....although it may be too modern a car to have one but worth checking
  15. Hi....welcome to the Club Fine looking Insignia and glad you're enjoying it so far Worth checking with your local Vauxhall parts department who should be able to break down the VIN to see which model spec it is and makes it useful to identify parts required in the future
  16. You could have a faulty alternator which is causing the drain or not fully charging the battery A battery check with heavy duty discharge will determine if there is a fault there Also check your earth leads as these are often overlooked (leads, connections, etc)
  17. Sounds like a vacuum issue where no vacuum is being supplied to the brake servo. Check vacuum hose connections and also listen out for any hissing noises under the bonnet, also if there is a vacuum leak then the engine revs will be lumpy on tickover
  18. I would be looking at any earth connections and leads in the rear of the van to start with Clean the earth points or substitute some earth leads directly to the lamp unit(s) to see if that improves it
  19. Hi Phil....welcome to the Club Wow! haven't seen one of those in a very long time, unusual paint/roof combination, not seen one like that before (or if I have I've long forgotten it) Good to have you onboard!
  20. Hi.....welcome to the forum fire away with the questions and hopefully there will be a few (sensible) answers 🙂 Good to have you onboard and fine looking Insignia
  21. Feel free to post up some photos of them if you would like to?
  22. Just make sure its got a good service history and all scheduled maintenance has been carried out to date
  23. always use eBay myself - there is a link to Vauxhall parts at the top of this page
  24. If it is working but the range has decreased then I don't imagine it is a resync that is needed but probably better quality fob batteries maybe?
