The gearbox oil is separate from the engine oil on a 2002 1.4 Astra, and much thicker.
vauxhall astra 2.0 tdi,what is engine oil capacity+what type of oil is best to use pls
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.
10/40 or 5/40 will be fine for this Astra.
The oil sensor can be found on the left side of the engine. The sensor will be near the front of the engine.
The oil pressure sensor sends a reading to the gauge so you can moniter the engine's oil pressure. No oil pressure means the engine is in big trouble.
