Vauxhall Vectra

10w30.

see mad `moles mondeo madness`.i used the second set of suggestions,THEY WORKED!

This is a reasonable job,but care needed to not break plastic parts.The instrument binnacle is held in by two bolts only but to access them you have to remove the "mixed air nozzles"either side.This can be done by prising with plastic wedges.Think the rotary light switch has to be removed,ease it out set to side lamps and undo a screw.The indicator and wiper switches have to be removed for clearance after removing their covers.Once instruments are unbolted,ease towards centre and release the wiring plug.Good luck.

Just after the airbox before the air flow sensor

the oil pump is the housing behind the bottom crank,you need to remove the cambelt and then the bottom crank and its the casing behind it.

Depends on engine type. There is no fixed location.

This answer applies to a 2005 Vectra with 3.2Lt V6 engine. The oil filter is on the front of the engine near the exhaust manifold and close to the radiator. It is a fixed canister type with a removeable lid which has a hex shaped head in the middle of it. Use a 15/16" socket to unscrew the lid. It unscrews anti clockwise (ie, it has a normal thread). Use a large flat container or plenty of paper on the ground under the car to catch the oil which will spill out of the oil filter. Once it is unscrewed, withdraw the filter lid complete with attached filter cartridge. Replace the filter cartridge making sure it snaps into place on the lid. Replace the rubber O-ring making sure it goes back onto the correct ring on the lid. Carefully position the lid and attached filter cartridge back into the cannister body - its more easily done by entering from under the car. Screw the lid back onto the cannister and tighten. Change the engine oil at the same time. To do this you'll need 5Lt of good quality 10W-50 engine oil and a torx-tip socket to open the sump plug. Safety notes:

- Never work under a car which is on a car jack or on unstable ground.

- Make sure the handbrake is on and at least one wheel is chocked.

- Beware of touching the exhaust pipe when it is hot - it can cause a nasty burn.

- Beware of hot oil which can also cause a nasty burn.

- If your skin is sensitive to engine oil, wear rubber gloves.

on the 1.8 arctic the fuse for the cigarette lighter is not where it says it is in the manual. You should see a fuse to the left of the one i should be - in the book this should be empty. That will be your cigarette lighter fuse.

Probably.

well u need to find the broken end of the cable that's still attached to the bonnet release then u need to pull the wire that is INSIDE the black insulation easy enough with a pair of pliers or vice grips but i suggest u fit a need a cable to save hassle in the future

The best type of towbar for a Vectra is a self aligning tow bar, which is also the most common type. The best actual brand of towbar for a Vectra cannot be determined.

Without know what the warning light say's, all I can tell you in Yellow means caution.

As you may know the key can normally be re-programmed to the central locking by turning on the ignition and pressing either of the buttons. If this fails there are two common faults 1/ the battery holder inside the key has come off of the printed circuit board (if you pack the key with tissuse paper to hold the battery tight this gets over that problem. 2/ the key has lost its connection to the computer and will need to go to a vauxhall dealer to have it programmed, they use a machine called tech 2 and to programme that or any key they will need the immobilizer (security) code number. this was originally supplied with the car at time of purchase. If you have lost it a Vauxhall Dealer can get a new code but this is not cheap.

80,000 or 72 months - which ever is soonest. If the engine has been driven hard all its life then it has been suggested to change it at 60,000 due to the belt not being very wide......

i just did it today on my 98 vectra gsi.... it was noisy, sluggish and drinking fuel like there was no tomorrow.... changed the coil pack, ignition leads and engine coolant temperature sensor (ECT). now it runs a dream!

To reset a Vectra warning light, first ensure the underlying issue is resolved. Then, turn the ignition to the "On" position without starting the engine. Press the accelerator pedal three times within five seconds, then turn the ignition off. Restart the engine to check if the warning light has cleared. If the light remains, further diagnostics may be needed.

The cost of fitting a new clutch to a 2003 Vauxhall Vectra typically ranges from £400 to £800, depending on factors such as labor rates in your area and whether you choose to use original equipment or aftermarket parts. Labor costs can vary significantly, so it’s advisable to get quotes from multiple garages. Additionally, if other components need replacing during the process, such as the flywheel or release bearing, the total cost may increase.
