Vauxhall Owners Club

Sounds like the code reader may not be fully interpreting the stored fault codes (wrong protocol being used)

I would say that in general the Mokka is a good car but timing chains are vulnerable to wear and failure if oil changes aren't carried out regularly Hopefully you will get to enjoy it for many years

There may be a fault with the intermittent wiper time relay Find out which one it is and see if it shows any signs of damage

It sounds like it would be better on ramps as the vehicle will be sitting at the correct ride height (suspension loaded) when you go to torque the bolts

It may be suggestion an upward gear change to improve the economy?

thanks for updating us and glad you got a conclusion on the problem

Feel free to post up an image on here if you wish?

Hi....welcome to the Club Wow! that's rare ..... it would be interesting if someone does come back to say they also have one Feel free to post up some pics of the Astra if you want?

Hi Ray A superb collection of rare manuals there I have moved this post to the For Sale section as possible more members will look there for manuals

Hi Richard and welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard!

Maybe have to use a reset tool but if the sensors were of dubious source then this may be the issue

Has any new bulbs been fitted lately? especially in the rear light units?

That does sounds like a drama which you could do without If it is regenerating then the engine temperature usually increases but sometimes there are conditions that require fulfilling before regen can take place. For example; sufficient level of fuel, unaltered continuous speed for a minimum period of time, etc If any of these aren't being carried out (consult your handbook for specific conditions) then this may compromise the regen Also worth trying premium diesel fuel from a branded fuel station (BP, Esso, Shell, etc)

I would consult your dealership parts department to see if they have revised it over time

Thanks for letting us know what it was and hope you get it sorted at a reasonable cost

That sounds like a brake pad wear sensor wire which they only usually fit to one side (in theory if the brakes are wearing evenly without any issues then its only needed one side - usually fitted to the inner pad)

Too old to take back to dealers under warranty then. Maybe a battery reset could work to recalibrate the A/C system which sounds like its out of synch? Would consult the dealership or A/C specialist garage first though

usually eBay for secondhand ones but could be buying another potentially faulty one

Was going to suggest the fuel filter but as you've already done that then I would move to seeing if you can extract any fault codes from the ECU memory to see what the potential fault could be

Good progress on the suspension Andy and I would also replace all the components while your in there as they are cheap enough and at least you know its all good for years to come

You could try using poly bushes from somewhere like DemonTweeks who sell PowerFlex bushes and may have a listing for what you're after

Oh thats great news and cheap fix Thanks for sharing the fix with the club

You will need to get the ECU scanned for store fault codes and this should tell you what the issue is

Not sure.....where have you read that code from Usually should be something like P0231 or similar but not sure what 85 means in this context

How old is the car?
