  1. Hi.....welcome to the Forum Burning smell? is it a petrol or diesel? If it is diesel then it may be the DPF regenerating which produces a burning smell when active. Good to have you onboard
  2. Hi....welcome to the Forum It doesn't surprise me as some keys are now becoming more prevalent. Here is a company that may be able to assist https://www.car-keys-online.com/
  3. Not sure I've seen any videos but if you buy from Halfords then they can fit them for you (at a cost though)
  4. Hi Lyn....welcome to the Forum You would probably be best to have a Parrot system installed as they tend to work better than most original fitment systems and a lot cheaper as well. Let us know how you get on with it
  5. It certainly looks the part, can't say I have ever driven one and let alone compared the petrol and diesel version so look forward to seeing the video and hearing your thoughts on the car.
  6. Hi.....welcome to the Forum The GSi is now quite a rare car, feel free to post up some pics of it if you want Good to have you onboard
  7. Hi Janet....welcome to the Forum Congrats on the impending marriage, albeit next year now. Your best bet would be to contact any local Classic Car clubs and hopefully they may know someone who can assist you. Let us know how you get on
  8. Hi....welcome to the Forum Its either the motor or the switch, I would imagine it would be the motor more than the switch but you can't totally discount it until you fit one or the other. Also check any earth points near the motor and in the engine bay in general
  9. Hi...welcome to the forum I would personally use a smoke generator to find the source of the leak. Smoke is easier to find its way through any hole or crack, water is a lot denser and it tracks along surfaces unlike smoke.
  10. Hi Nick.....welcome to the Forum What a superb example of a mk2 Cavalier, great colour as well ! Good to have you onboard
  11. Hi ... welcome to the Forum It doesn't look like it does and usually anything Bluetooth has a logo marked on it You can purchase a Bluetooth adapter to plug into the cigar lighter that tunes into the Radio and gives you hands free capabilities
  12. Hi....welcome to the Forum Here is a selection of wiring diagrams for the Vivaro but depends on which circuit you're after https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C5CHFA_enGB830GB831&source=univ&tbm=isch&q=2011+vauxhall+vivaro+wiring+diagrams&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwje4PzJvYvsAhXcQEEAHQy3BUIQjJkEegQIDBAB&biw=1670&bih=931
  13. I believe you should be able to store it as a Favourite Station or similar
  14. Blimey! that's bizarre with the wrong oil being in the transmission and still working. Should work a lot better after a fluid and filter change
  15. Hi Tracy. The oil quality should have been reset to 100% when the service was carried out. It will need to be reset using a diagnostic tool and would be best to take it back to the garage for them to reset it
  16. Hi....welcome to the Forum Feel free to ask any questions and I'm sure someone will be able to assist.
  17. Hi....welcome to the Forum Maybe worth looking at the range of aftermarket bulbs available in Halfords. A lot of brands (such as Philips) boast increased output of around 35%, etc so maybe worth trying these first to see how improved the lighting becomes.
  18. Hi.....welcome to the Forum It sounds more like the turbo being restricted (variable vanes clogged up with carbon) and going to limp mode when it reaches a certain rpm. Usually accompanied by a P0299 fault code to state Turbo Underboosting
  19. Here is a link to some dimensions for the Insignia https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C5CHFA_enGB830GB831&source=univ&tbm=isch&q=vauxhall+insignia+dimensions&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjJ4Jz4s-jrAhVYi1wKHUQ3BUEQsAR6BAgKEAE&biw=1920&bih=1001
  20. Hi....welcome to the Forum I would be concerned that the unit freezes on a 2020 car, it may be worth taking it back to the dealers and see if there is a software update to resolve this issue.
  21. That sounds quite terminal, I would personally get it transported on a lorry (AA, RAC, etc) to your garage rather than drive it
  22. I may have seem some updates being advertised online by individuals who have a crack to make it work but can't remember who they were so worth searching and see what comes up
