around 90ºC is normal
Because it's made in Britain, that's why. :)
On a Vauxhall Astra Club 1.6, the temperature gauge is typically located on the instrument cluster, which is behind the steering wheel. It usually appears as a dial or digital display, indicating the engine coolant temperature. If you’re having trouble locating it, consult the vehicle’s owner’s manual for specific details related to your model year.

To change a dashboard bulb on a Vauxhall Astra Estate, first, ensure the vehicle is turned off and remove the key from the ignition. Carefully pry off the dashboard panel using a flat tool to avoid damage, then locate the bulb holder behind the gauge cluster. Twist the bulb holder counterclockwise to remove it, replace the old bulb with a new one, and reassemble the dashboard by reversing the steps. Always check the bulb's specifications to ensure compatibility.

Because most if not all vauxhall engines are air cooled, hence when you are driving the temp comes down
Possible causes of gauge not working. Faulty gauge Blown fuse. Open circuit in wiring to the gauge. Temprature transmitter in engine faulty. ( most probably the actual fault ) Lack of coolant in the engine.
my oil light pressure light comes on when my car is at rest yet when I am driving it goes off or if I keep the rev count up slightly it is a vauxhall astra 56 plate.Any ideas what this is most likely to be. First be sure the oil level is correct and you are using the correct weight oil for that engine and climate. Then check that the engine idle speed is correct. Then check the oil pressure sending unit for accuracy with temporally installing a manual oil pressure gauge. If all that checks okay, you probably have a tired engine with worn bearings and oil pump.
To recalibrate the temperature gauge on a Vauxhall Corsa, start by ensuring the vehicle is at normal operating temperature. Disconnect the battery for about 15 minutes to reset the electronic systems. Reconnect the battery, then turn the ignition to the "on" position without starting the engine, allowing the gauge to reset. Finally, check the gauge's accuracy by monitoring it during normal driving conditions. If issues persist, consult a professional mechanic for further diagnosis.
