Not sure what it's worth does need some work

I have recently bought a Corsa Energy 2019 and have noticed a sporadic tinny vibration sound behind off side front wheel. I can't feel through the brake pedal or steering wheel and I know its not the brakes or the brake disks. The car only has 30,000 miles on the clock and is second-hand, for reference. Has anyone had a similar experience or could suggest what they think it might be?

This very rarely happens but it does!

Someone suggested giving it a diesel flush treatment which I didn't have time to do, so I did a double shot of Millers Diesel treatment ahead of my monthly trip from Cornwall and Essex and back and since then I must say it has not happened again (and the car sure does drive better with no knocking or anything and lots more power) so perhaps was just a clogged injector? I did order a new Crankshaft sensor but I think ive got the wrong one as the spacing between the sensor and the bold looks different, and also despite best efforts I could not reach the dam thing anyway.

Mine is still faulting. Mine is not a hybrid therefore does not have the extra battery fitted. But yes I definitely think it’s electrical related

Vauxhall combo 1.3 cdti. Every so often the engine misses, loses power, won't accelerate. If I dip the clutch and rev it, it doesn't rev past 2000rpm. I pull over, switch it off, restart and we're away. Had new turbo, egr and diesel pump. No smoke or fuel smell. Thoughts?

Hiya,can anyone tell me where I can locate an ignition powered 12volt supply wire near to the rear of the vehicle as I need to upgrade my electric supply from a 6 wire to a 13wire connection to my caravan for the operation of the fridge and battery charger whilst travelling, many thanks Cliff

i took mine apart and found it was full of gunk

I really appreciate the stuff you sent earlier. Vauxhall's attitude is appalling over this. Trying to say it was a fault in my car that caused it. The auto electrician tried to update it today using a Vauxhall card and it did the same thing . . Said it was not compatible

I have a nox 2 code come up is that the sensor on the rear of the car or by the front wheel of the car

I how many nox sensors are on it and were abouts is not sensor 2 located

How do I fit the nearside window glass not fitting properly

Hoping so. Haven't took her out yet,as doing lots of the little Jobs I've been putting off. Next o the list is front wheel bearing as lost all gauges.

My folding cup holder in the centre consle won't go back into the flush upright position. Any fixes.?

Might be worth trying an impact gun (pneumatic or battery) which will spin the nuts off

if you take it to a dealer they should be able to identify it and provide a new one

I have this code 68 come on every so often but I've noticed if I park in gear without handbrake (electric handbrake) the code doesn't come on the next time I start the car however when applying handbrake the starting the car code 68 I had the car scanned diagnostics and code U0121-00 is displayed not this is the handbrake failing to engage with the car and ideas where to start sort out handbrake module or power steering code 68

Hi everyone, I'm in the process of doing maintenance on the astra. I am going to do a coolant flush and refresh, and also sort out the egr system. Does the coolant work with the egr, as I've noticed that the heater pipes are connected to the pipework from egr. And would having a clogged coolant system cause the egr to misbehave? Thanks in advance Andy

Hello, can anyone please help me to find out this wheel lock nut key code. Thank you

It has happened again, once more on entering a roundabout. It would not restart in either Park and Neutral. So what happened last time must have been coincidental. I left it for 15 minutes and tried again. It started and ran normally for the rest of the journey.

The cable appears to be on back order with Vauxhall at the moment. Does anyone know of an alternative ?
