Hi all.

Good evening all Richard from Ollerton, Notts Just bought a 2015 CDTi 140 Elite Looking forward to a lot of advice and me asking stupid questions Apologies in advance!

Hi there, have you had any diagnostics on your Agila. I wonder if maybe you need to get the EGR valve checked. My Astra throws up the EML when EGR is playing up.

This was one of the last Omegas to be made and has the highest spec of the range. Vauxhall threw everything at it: full leather upholstery, full electric kit including heated seats front and rear, electricly adjustable front seats, Bose sound system, sunroof, 5 alloy wheels, towbar, etc. etc. The bodywork is showing its age, parts are hard to find and, for me, it's uneconomical to keep it as my only vehicle. I'd prefer to see it broken for parts rather then crushed so if you're interested please get in touch. It has an MoT until December '25 so you could come to Sheffield and drive it away! I'm open to offers above scrap value. Richard

Hi. New member checking in, and for me, that usually means only one thing . . . I have a problem with a car! Member by proxy this time, my Daughter's car. 1600 2011 Astra Estate. I'll do some searching, then post a topic if I can't find the answer. Cheers. 'Doc' (John)

Hi....welcome to the Club Glad to see that you have resolved the numerous issues and positive outcome

Great diagnostic skills used to determine faults rather than just replacing components in an attempt to resolve the issues. Thanks for giving feedback and solutions

So, that was easier than I was expecting. New Cam Cover arrived this morning, fitted it, ran it, checked/cleared Fault Codes, all sorted. It had also failed for the Stabilitrak Warning Message and Light. Removed the front ABS Sensors, R/H one had a bit of Brake Dust on it, cleaned both. Poked a thin strip of Solvent-soaked Cloth down the holes and spun the Hub to try and clean the Sensor Ring. That fault cleared and didn't come back, happy days. Took it down for the retest, passed.

I have owned my very faithful Omega CDX 2.6 V6 automatic for sixteen years and my cousin for three years before. Unfortunately a suspected oil pump failure has resulted in a suspected big end knock. Before I send it to scrap yard heaven, anyone interested in salvaging parts for the few that are still out there on the road or in a collectors garage? She had quite a few new parts fitted in the last year and has five full size alloy wheels, two with new tyres a couple of weeks ago and two with new tyres last year, around 2000 miles wear and the spare is about half worn. She would need picking up from Alton, Hampshire. I have been offered just under £300.00 for scrap so would be looking for offers of at least that, but I would rather see her recycled for spare parts. It will need picking up by trailer/transporter from GU34 Mileage 109263. Colour Silver. New windscreen fitted July 2024. Hardly any rust. MOT 16/6/2025. Reg PF53UEU.

Hi peeps I have a 74 plate Corsa 1.2T 130bp ultimate which is an absolute beast and I love it!! I've been looking to go to vauxhall car meets in the Kent - Sussex area to show him off and meet other vauxhall owners! Can anyone point me in the the right direction as looking online/FB etc there doesn't seem to be things like this happening anymore, not like the 90's-00's when they were everywhere I just loved driving about in my K reg Astra sport, lol. Cheers Aaron

Hello everyone

Welcome to the forum. Feel free to post pics of your car. If you need any advice on your Corsa, there is always someone who could help.

Hello everyone, I am seeking a source of SRi seat fabric to replace the square on the driver seat cushion. I am unsure of the name of the fabric but it is the grey with the wide diagonal pin stripe. I have tried finding replica fabric but not having any joy. Keeping a close eye out for donor parts, but I am wondering if anybody has a small supply of this fabric? Thank you for your help. Dan G

Hi mate I completely forgot about sharing my photos of my new Corsa ultimate and I also went for the 130 turbo!!........ it's like it's been given a steroid injection

Hi, we’re currently in the process of the dreaded wet belt problem. Vauxhall are basically wiping their hands of us saying that yes this problem is covered under an extended warranty however because we have had our services elsewhere and not with an actual Vauxhall dealership that we need to produce itemised lists of what have been used in the services over the years. Luckily we know the garages and the owners that we’ve had the services done and they have said they have used the correct oil but the ‘requirements’ have changed through the years. Basically making it near on impossible and to catch you out at the easiest point to say we are not covered. Not once have I ever been told when buying a vehicle that if you don’t service with them than your not entitled to extended warranties with an issue. We have had services like you are supposed to, paid our money at approved garages it’s an utter joke! We’re going to have to pay for the wet belt to be replaced but are going to fight Vauxhall every way!! This is a problem that should have been recalled by Vauxhall, what a joke. Any advice is welcome and any success stories getting anything back from Vauxhall? Many thanks
