  1. I found a loose wheel weight on a car i was looking at recently and similar symptoms
  2. Can't think of anything that would do the job apart from running a cable from further up the vehicle to the rear?
  3. Definitely sounds like turbo vairable vanes are gummed up with carbon Try cleaning the turbo with this stuff and see if that makes a difference Revive Turbo Cleaner Starter Kit Turbo Cleaner & Power Restorer 750ml (Diesel)
  4. let us know how that job goes Andy
  5. Might be worth trying an impact gun (pneumatic or battery) which will spin the nuts off
  6. oh crikey I can imagine that makes a huge difference to the car Andy?
  7. if you take it to a dealer they should be able to identify it and provide a new one
  8. It sounds like there may be some light bleeding through from another part of the dash area (such as illumination for the alarm status lamp, possibly)

  14. If in doubt drop it into a tyre bay and they should be able to advise and possibly reset it for you while you wait
  15. Ebay may be your best bet as can deliver to you in France There is a discount code at the top of this page https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_nkw=vauxhall+nova+steering+rack&_sacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p4582968.m570.l1313
  16. very rare indeed - cannot remember the last time i saw one
  17. There may be some air trapped in the cooling system Pop it back to the garage who changed the housing and I'm sure it will only take them a minute or so to expel the air
  18. sounds like one of the door switches is faulty and the system believes one of the doors is open. Try opening each door in turn and see if the interior light comes on and goes out after a short period When you find one that neither switches the light on or off then there is the problem Don't forget also the tailgate as this will also affect the central locking
