If you look at the top end of this page,there is a similar question and answer. Assuming again that you can't see it,the thermostat housing if not on the side of the cyl. head,will be on the front of the head. If so this means the cambelt covers and belt off for access.Once exposed,the thermostat housing can be removed as normal. Recommend changeing the belt anyway,if close to miles for replacement.Remove the temperature transmitter until bubbles have stopped when refilling with coolant.
what the dealer cost for a corsa 14 design auto? Local dealer advertising offering cost +£100 if anyone know cost to dealer from Vauxhall would be fantastic Thanks
Depends on the tyre size. For 13" Tyres use 30 PSI. Ive seen 16" tyres use 32 PSI so around 31 PSI for 14 or 15 inch tyres.
14 lbf ft or 19 Nm
open the radiator cap to release any pressure from the system. Follow the top hose from the radiator and unbolt the two 14 mm bolts holding the thermostat housing in place. Remove the thermostat out of the housing. I replaced mine with a fram 195 degree fail safe (when fails stays open not shut)thermostat. Reinstall making sure you use proper gasket and proper thermostat.
You can replace them with 205/60-14 or 175/70-14.
No, you do not necessarily have to but it is a good idea. Have the entire system flushed. Replace the thermostat, bleed the system. I would also replace all coolant hoses at this time unless you have done so before. Your car is 14 years old and although they may look OK, it is just smart to replace now before you are stranded by a hose bursting. Be sure and replace the heater hoses also. Refill the system with a 50/50 mixture of anti-freeze and distilled water.
the size is 14 cm but 13 cm fits also
At the engine side of the upper radiator hose, there is a small aluminum housing with two bolts in it. The thermostat is under that housing. This is also true of most other cars. You should replace the gasket, and tighten the bolts from 14 to 19 foot-pounds after replacing the thermostat. I recommend Stant brand thermostats. If you are planning to keep the car a long time, get the Stant SuperStat.
To add gearbox oil in a 2005 Corsa 1.4, locate the gearbox filler plug, which is typically found on the side of the gearbox. Use a ratchet or wrench to remove the plug, then insert a funnel or a pump to add the appropriate type and amount of gearbox oil until it reaches the bottom of the filler hole. Always ensure the vehicle is level when checking and adding oil. After filling, securely replace the filler plug.
The gap is preset at the factory but is always a good idea to doublecheck to make sure it is correct.
These two sizes are acceptable substitutes. 195/65-14 175/75-14
I just changed the thermostat on my 93 4.3 and the bolt is a metric size, unfortunately I don't remember what size it was, 12, 13, or 14 millimeter should cover it.
