2011 Insignia 2.0 cdti engine replacement
Vauxhall Owners Club replied to Dave's topic in Vauxhall Owners Lounge
Hi Dave.....welcome to the Forum It sounds plausible that there are modifications to compensate for previous reliability issues. I would be tempted to run with the installation and see how it all goes now you're at this advanced stage. It may also be worth speaking to your local Vauxhall parts department to see whether it all tallies up as legitimate modified parts from a recall (maybe worth taking photos of the parts in question) Let us know how you get on with it all -
Hi Jodhi....welcome to the Forum Does the engine turn over when you turn the key or just not fire up the engine? Crank sensor comes to mind if the engine does not fire up.

2015 insignia starting problems
Vauxhall Owners Club replied to Becj141185's topic in Vauxhall Insignia Club
Hi....welcome to the Forum That's an odd one and may need to be scanned to see if there are any fault codes in the system. Quite possibly it could be an issue with the Clutch Switch which is causing the fault. Let us know if you find out the cause -
2008 vectra 3.0 v6 cdti rough running
Vauxhall Owners Club replied to Andyv6's topic in 2005 to 2009 Vectra
No, the cleaner you need for the turbo is for the variable vanes on the turbine (hot side) and this is very caustic but does the job. Either of these two will do: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/INNOTEC-VARIABLE-VANE-TURBO-CLEANER-KIT/283742412523?epid=735246736&hash=item42105d9eeb:g:HYsAAOSwglJeHJJx https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Diesel-Engine-Turbo-Cleaner-Cures-Limp-Home-Mode-Variable-Vane-Turbos/152003334878?epid=1943810068&hash=item23641ad2de:g:lQ4AAOSwZ8ZW2O4l -
2015 astra Sri seat belt issue
Vauxhall Owners Club replied to Jules2410's topic in Vauxhall Owners Lounge
Hi Jules....welcome to the Forum If the seatbelt is in the rear then the boot is leaking, which is a common fault, but if its in the front then I don't know what that is? Has the car come from somewhere like Helston in Cornwall which floods regularly within the year....check the log book for previous owners Silicon spray is good for squeaky pedals usually -
Insignia - what is this part?
Vauxhall Owners Club replied to gavinphillips's topic in Vauxhall Insignia Club
siggyv6cdti You're the Insignia expert....any ideas? -
Hi....welcome to the Forum If the headlamps are high then there is an issue with the ride height sensors which automatically adjust the level of the headlights when the suspension alters to avoid blinding other motorists. If one (or both) of the rear sensors is defective then this can cause the issue you are experiencing. Best to take it to a reputable garage who should be able to identify if there is an issue with the sensors Let us know how you get on with it

Insignia - what is this part?
Vauxhall Owners Club replied to gavinphillips's topic in Vauxhall Insignia Club
It looks like a breather pipe going into it What's wrong with it -
Certainly looks stylish enough Still sunny here in Dorset, long way from here now then?
-
It would probably be the same for the Astra, AndyR
-
Well you have certainly improved the looks of it and made it quite unique....proper job!
-
Hi Jack....welcome to the Forum That's an aggressive front end of the car, looks great! What other mods have you done to it so far? Good to have you onboard

Let us know how you get on with it

Vauxhall astra van 2008 1.9
Vauxhall Owners Club replied to Ryan123's topic in New Members Introductions
Hi....welcome to the Forum I would be tempted to reinstate the EGR and put a blanking plate (with a small hole for the gas to be sensed by the engine management) to extinguish the EML. -
Hi....welcome to the Forum I would advise to take it into a transmission specialist who can diagnose the issue and it may well be that it needs a fluid and filter change which could improve the overall function of the gearbox operation. Generally, the fluid and filter replacement would not cost too much money and will definitely give longevity to the transmission

that's a dilemma and one which is difficult to decide whether to leave it or just get it done and then not having to worry about it?
