vauxhalls do have brakes what is the problem with them ? what model ?

my mk3 astra 2.0l 16v red top is over fueling when turning over.

There is no difference. They are the same! Opel originating in Germany for some reason chose to have different names in different markets.

30 mpg

I HAD SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH MY MOVANO TIPPER TRUCK. gAVE IT TO GARAGE SEVERAL TIMES AND THIS PROBLEM BAFFLED THEM. THEY EVENTUALLY SPOTTED THAT THE ONBOARD THE ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM HAD SPOTTED A PROBLEM WITH THE CAM SHAFT/CAMBELT SENSOR WHICH INTURN STOPPED THE VAN FROM STARTING

Each beep means something different - One is a confirmation tone for decoding, one could be for bluetooth headset (if you have one) and the other can be a single beep which can randomly go off.

In a Vauxhall Vectra, the Engine Control Unit (ECU) is typically located behind the dashboard, near the driver's side, or under the passenger side footwell. It can also be found in the engine bay, depending on the specific model and year. Accessing the ECU may require removing panels or covers to reach it effectively. Always refer to the vehicle’s service manual for precise location details.

your corsa gearstick has gone sloppy because it needs a new gear linkage. its a common problem on corsa'a and the part is about £60 from the vauxhall dealer

To start with iam a qualified mechanic so i should know what im talking about. I own a 04 plate Astra with a loud whistling noise coming from the engine after being run for 20 mins or more. the engine code is XEP (the water pump Does Not run off the timing belt). If the main breather is disconnected from the back of the rocker cover the noise stops immediately. The cause of the noise is excessive negative pressure in the rocker cover and crankcase. Another way to check is to remove oil filler cap and if excessive vacuum is felt then the only course of action is to replace the entire rocker cover assembly. Rough cost - £115 + vat Inside the rocker cover is a plastic valve and diaphragm that is the cause of the noise. Unfortunately this can not be replaced independantly. Hope this is of some help

lift the ecotec plastic cover off and you will see 4 in a row simple....and the spark plug i use with great results is an NGK 7956 BKR5EK,,,,THIS IS FOR A VAUXHALL ZAFIRA 199 TO 2005....AFTER THAT THEY HAD A FACELIFT......HOPE THAT HELPS.....PS...APPLY SOME LIGHT LITHIUM GREASE TO THE SPARK PLUG THREADS TO HELP THEM GO ON AND TO GET THEM OUT IN 2 YEARS TIME...AND REMEMBER ONLY USE YOUR HANDS TO INSERT THE SPARK PLUGS....ONCE SECURE ENOUGH THEN USE THE BAR AS NORMAL TO THE CORRECT TOURGE....TIME TAKEN TO DO THIS JOB..........25 MINS..HAVE FUN

maby they like that letter and i was asking myself about that conspiracy for a while now

Before 1991 (ish) Vauxhall and Opel models were the same but had different names (Astra = Kadett, Cavalier = Ascona/Vectra and Nova = Corsa) Vauxhall and Opel decided to set a standard for naming their cars and I think they just took a marketing choice to make them all ending with 'A'

were can i find abs censors on a vauxhall vectra cheers

Could be a fault with the air meter on top of the engine....may need replacing. This problem occurs when the engine is cold....the result is it just won't rev enough to get the van up to speed so you end up going along at about 15mph until the engine is hot. Then the van suddenly takes off and is normal. The garage will need to test the van when the engine is cold, and using their hand-held diagnostic computer for Vauxhalls. Only a main dealer is likely to have the diagnostic tool. The new part is not that expensive....its some kind of computerised air meter thing.

THE BULB WILL NEED REPLACING BEHIND THE DISPLAY

Behind the near side front indicator unit. Take out the headlight and the indicator with the three wing nuts/screws and you have access to the horn unit there.

the vt commodore has a automatic tensioner. you will need a 15mm socket and breaker bar or spanner. it is a left hand thread so if you apply pressure counter clockwise you will move the tensioner and be able to slip the belt on. that is if your talking about the v6 engine.

Vauxhall and Holden are both owned by General Motors (GMC). Holden is the Austrailian market (owned by america) whilst Vauxhall/Opel are the European. Chev and Cadillac are mainly sold in america Many of the GM companies are beginning to share parts and even full vehicles globally under different brands. The Vauxhall VXR8 for example is a rebadged Holden Commadore using the 6.0 V8 LS2 engine from a Chevrolet Corvette. GM have been doing that for yonks
