  Air Conditioning leaking?
Posted by: Haplo - 17:th-Aug-2017, 14:10:19 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC Technical - Replies (2)

Hi
I hope someone can help me, I own an Astra Excite 1.4 2015, my aircon seems to be leaking even though it has not been used for a while, I started the car today and ran the aircon on full and water did come out constantly, which I know is normal, but when everything is off, there is a slow drip.

Basically I need to know what do I have to do to stop this

Thanks
Hap

  Mile on a full tank,
Posted by: NEATH-LAD - 16:th-Aug-2017, 18:07:12 - Forum: General Chat - Replies (10)

Hi friends

i have had my car for almost 2 months now but i think it seems to be drinking to much fuel,

my car is a 2014 design estate model 6sp auto gear box 1.6... to fill my car is around the £60 mark but only seem to be getting around 320 miles, 1 fill up in auto mode and 2nd fill up in manual mode and 3rd fill a mix of both, but getting around the same miles, do you friends think my car has a drinking issue or is it about right? i think it works out around 28.9MPG (that is whats on the display) is there something wrong if so what could it be??

my last car was a fiat stilo dynamic 1.6 manual and 02 plate and did around 550 / 580 miles to a tank around £60 i did expect it would be drinking a tad more being an auto but i didn't think it would be that much...  Rant

Any advice would be great

Kind Regards
Dom.....

  Oil Level
Posted by: Padster - 15:th-Aug-2017, 12:11:48 - Forum: Servicing - Replies (1)

When reading the oil level my dipstick has two plain segments sandwiched between two hatched segments.

Where is the ideal level. Should the top hatched segment be covered with oil or should the oil stop at the division between the plain segment and the top hatched segment?

Hello Mr. Broadhurst,


the installed Radio (EMPN: 23499778) is not released for Astra MY11.

Please order and install the EMPN 20983513 or 22776285 and program it on TIS2Web.



expected I suppose

I obviously need to program my bcm but not sure how straight forward this is , happy to give it a go if its not to complicated as I may not actually need a vci being 2011 ... I know its hit and miss

any advice would be welcome

thanks
John

  1.6 CDTI engine problems ?
Posted by: Loddy Jeff - 11:th-Aug-2017, 17:02:28 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC Technical - Replies (1)

Hi, another newbie to the forum!!  I have a Astra J 1.6 CDTI Sports Tourer 2014 bought second hand with 28K on clock. Now had it for several months and am very pleased with it.  It is the first diesel engined car I've had (but about the 6th Astra).

Has anyone had problems with this engine?  I understand it has been continued in the K so I assume its not too bad!!

Cheers
