It's not uncommon for the indicator relay on Corsa's to fail. The relay contains two circuits, one for LH, and one for the RH, hence it can work on one side, but not work the other. The relay is located under the bonnet, on the left side of the car at the very rear of the engine compartment, under a plastic cover held in place with 5 or 6 inaccessible torx headed screws.

What does the yellow oil light mean on a Vauxhall?
It could be that the oil pressure switch has failed and caused the oil lamp to come on,this is common and easy to fix.Initially though,check the oil level,and if low, top it up to max. You don't state what car or engine but the lamp means low oil pressure and a big bill if you continue to drive without investigation. Some cars when servicing is poor,will by-pass a blocking oil filter and trigger a warning,you may just need an oil and filter change?
Astra ignition lights? Don't want to be sarcastic,but what do you actually want to know here? On most modern cars,Astra included,when you turn the key,all the warning lights come on as a "self test",then go out as the ECU checks the items they pertain to.The ones which stay on are ignition/charge lamp and oil pressure.Once the engine starts,these too should go out,unless you have a problem.

How do you change gearlever gaitor on 1995 astra Mk3?
Grab hold of the gaitor at the bottom towards the front. Pull upwards and backwards. it should pull out of the centre console with very little force (Unless a previous owner has broken the clips and glued it in).
Once the bottom of the gaitor is released pull it all the way up the gear lever and use a pair of good scissors to cut the plastic tie holding the hole in the top closed. With the clip cut the hole in the top is large enough to pass over the gear knob.

There should be a "settings" button. (top left of the volume knob I think)
Press it repeatedly until you find a setting "ignition logic".
Press the Volume knob (it acts as an "enter" at this point, IIRC).
The display show now show the choice "yes" or "no".
Using the volume knob, rotate it to select "Yes".
Press the volume knob, and you should be sorted.
This needs attention quickly or major engine damage can result.First you should have checked your oil level,these sometimes use a lot of oil.If you have reasonably fresh oil and filter ok.If not get them sorted.If you have low oil pressure due to a failing oilpump the hydraulic tappets will not open fully so the engine cannot breathe,hence the performance loss.
Why does your zafira keep stalling when the revs go to idle speed?
If it's a 1.8 with a paper element oil filter....
There is a small hole in the throttle body that get blocked up with carbon deposits. This can cause stalling problems.
There is a small pipe going to the side of the throttle body (about 10 mm in Diameter) remove this pipe and use a carburettor cleaner to unblock the hole.
There is a factory re-work to address this problem, but it's too complicated to spell out here.
A less likely cause it that the throttle body is it self faulty, and needs replacing.
