Vauxhall Owners Club

There should be a fixing on there somewhere, bonded with glue or is secured with a u-bolt

You may need to reprogramme some of the ECU's and also the battery voltage setting

I just had to look it up as have never heard of Britoil It does worry me that the likes of AliBaba and Amazon list it on their site which is usually reserved for cheap or counterfeit products I personally would not use it if I cared for my car and then go to the next cheapest brand that is a reputable make

I wonder if it could be the other fault.....emissions error? This could be caused by a small air leak that may be drawing through a gasket or somewhere that has been disturbed when fitting parts. Check all rubber hoses in the engine bay for splits, perishing and security

Sounds like historic fault codes and now they have cleared should be resolved

Hi Bex.....welcome to the Club Generally, most dealerships should periodically give deals on servicing, worth enquiring with your local dealer and see if there is anything being offered.

The air should eventually rise to the highest point which could be the coolant expansion tank. If it continues to draw air into the system then replace the coolant pressure cap which may be below par

Hi....welcome to the Club 88 degrees Centigrade is the normal opening temperature for the thermostat Anything up and around that figure for an engine operating temperature is fine. If it is a lower coolant pipe then that is also fine as it is circulating in cold air and lower part of radiator. If the hose feels soft (e.g not slightly compressed with coolant) within it the maybe you have air trapped in the system

There is a special reset for the oil quality (once topped up) and maybe it wasn't reset at last oil change. Look up Oil Quality reset procedure on YouTube and go from there

Sounds like someone has changed the wheels for a wider combination. Maybe better to fit them to the rear? But if the work fine (e.g. good handling) then maybe best to leave them on there. Otherwise, next tyre change you can revert back to 215 size (maybe cheaper as well)

I wonder if it is an alignment issue with the lamps? They should put out a great deal of light but if the sensors on the windscreen are not calibrated correctly then they could be 'dipping' or even adapting to some other situation which could show the lights in the incorrect position on the road. I would ask for an ADAS calibration check by the dealers

Hi Andy Have you pulled out any fault codes from the ECU? I wonder if there could be another fault that is showing as EGR but is being caused by another issue

Hi jimlowe ...... welcome to the Club Glad you are happy with your Vauxhall, they can be great cars if maintained correctly. Good to have you onboard!

It sounds like the fuel cap is no longer venting. Perhaps the wrong one is fitted or the vapour vent/recirculating system is blocked. Has any new parts been fitted since before this issue started?

Hi....welcome to the Club I would look for an air leak especially around the intake trunking area. Additionally, look at other serviceable items which may need replacing. In my distant memory there was an issue with the Single Point Injection system and a similar fault but seem to recall it was unregulated air but worth doing a google search on the injection system faults from that era

Possibly 'lower valance' trim

I don't think you'll get too much increase on the 2.0 litre as it was quite a lazy engine and not a high revving lump. I would look at exhaust intake and ignition to try to improve engine response

Not sure if the engine goes into limp mode but if not then I would probably ignore the lamp if it is not affecting the performance There was an issue I recall from many years ago and the sensor cable was wrapped in tin foil and connected to earth so if gave a shield from any electrical interference that could create 'noise' in the sensor readings

I would definitely start with an oil change and OE oil filter to see if this eliminates the rattle

Maybe worth stripping the rear brakes to ensure the pads are not sticking in the carrier and then reset the handbrake if necessary

Sounds like you have a few issues there. I would first try to programme the injector to the vehicle and then attempt to statically purge the DPF and if any better then take for a good blast to ensure all is clear

Hi.....welcome to the Club I would firstly replace the fuel filter and ensure that the housing is also in good order (no leaks and seals good)

Hi Matthew....welcome to the Club I would remove the door card to see what is occurring in there and go from there. If you are not confident removing the door card then most local garages should be able to remove it for you and diagnose the issue

I imagine the delay is across the board for most vehicles nowadays....take your pick - Covid, Brexit, Semiconductors, etc I guess it will wing its way to you in its own good time.
