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

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

very rare indeed - cannot remember the last time i saw one

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

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

Hi....welcome to the club Good to have you onboard!

Hi....welcome to the club Feel free to ask anything and hopefully someone will know the answer

are you getting current at the bulbs? earth points may be worth checking or substitute an earth to see if illuminating bulbs

Hi....welcome to the Club Nice collection of some classic Vauxhalls you've had over the years. Hope you find something worthy of your empty garage

Hi....welcome to the Club How are you getting on with the Grandland? Managed to work out all the tech?

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

It does sound like it needs to have a constant clear out of the carbon build up in the EGR, DPF and Turbo. Carbon builds up in town driving and only really has a chance to clear when the power is applied. When a DPF regenerates it produces smoke and you will also notice the engine temperature may rise. This is normal and needs to occur more frequently to keep the DPF clean otherwise it will cost a fortune to clean or replace

This may help

Sorry to hear the engine has expired You are welcome to place an advert in the For Sale section of this forum to see if there are any interested buyers

Hi....welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard

It would certainly be a desirable car for a younger driver and worth trying to advertise it on Gumtree or Facebook Marketplace You are also welcome to post a for sale advert in this forum and see if it gets any interested buyers

Hi...welcome to the Club quite a rare van to see on the roads nowadays Good to have you onboard!

I would get another scan as those codes may have been caused by sensors being disconnected during some work on the engine. A fresh scan will at least show current faults since the historic ones were cleared....at least you'll know the current fault

Regular maintenance The effect of inadequate maintenance of the car is very underestimated. The controlling of the clutch is hydraulic and receives its fluid from the brake fluid reservoir. When the brake fluid is contaminated, it doesn’t just affect the brake system but also the clutch system (and therefore also the clutch actuator). Especially oil seals don’t like this contamination. Information source: https://www.actronics.co.uk/acinsights/bosch-easytronic-f13-mta-f17-mta

Some more information that I have found Hydraulic fluid Also checking and replacing (when needed) the hydraulic fluid is no unnecessary luxury. Many cases are known where the system has not had maintenance for years and where flushing and bleeding solved the problem. Flushing and bleeding the hydraulic circuit has even more advantages: possible defects with the clutch actuator (see below for more information) are easy to be detected. The bleeding-procedure is so detailed, that during controlling the clutch actuator, defects easily become visible. Often the actuator is (partly) defective.

On a Vauxhall with an Easytronic transmission, the transmission fluid reservoir is typically located on the top of the transmission housing, near the rear of the engine bay; it will usually have a small fill cap that you can access to check and add fluid, though the exact location might vary slightly depending on the specific Vauxhall model - always consult your vehicle's owner's manual for the most accurate location

Here is the correct fluid for the Easytronic transmission https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/273902881945?_skw=Easytronic+fluid&epid=8032645257&itmmeta=01JJP6NQHEJSKWFDYZBPW8JFK2&hash=item3fc5e24c99:g:EUsAAOSweY9maFMz&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA0HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKlWqFaBEvDBkvRhCp0QezZbFyp8GKXP2RgqTZxSIA14P8fe2ONrMgAw7OL77%2BnSnXvZpfsIvF5c99GPcoIXi9wvlBccaxSPicDnYGEZ3eOK8kE9A4tQyODMpzkNJgtLhNOLLoIrm9Ac%2FbP1GCfPyY8sWiyqGfgZ8Ir8rFI8ukGiPTLY%2F%2BhoFCsWHs3OTLA%2FApzvjajK3DDzb%2BqP%2BZ5LVHtN%2FAEZX%2FG2ow6p%2Bc99xTZMHK8NnEnHSppWIGBMyCA7hwU%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR_D41saVZQ
