  Brake squeal
Posted by: bhalay207 - 9:th-Aug-2016, 19:39:33 - Forum: Mechanical - Replies (1)

I've had my front brake pads changed by Vauxhall last week. I collected it on Monday following my holiday and I've only covered 26 miles since I collected it, however I coming off the duel carriageway today I noticed that they are still squealing. I'm not sure whether this is right or not? I know they need time to bed in but surely they shouldn't squeal?

This is what my discs look like at the minute... Obviously the pads are still bedding in

  Good bye to the forum
Posted by: grahamfromoldham - 9:th-Aug-2016, 17:13:31 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (6)

Hi chaps,

I'm just popping in to say goodbye to the forum as I'm defecting to buy a new Nissan Qashqai (collect her Weds 10th Aug) and trading my Astra J in. Sad to leave Vauxhall but had them for over 20 years and now its time for a change. Certain things left a bad taste in my mouth with regards to the VX dealership and as the top spec Qashqai is quite a motor (others will disagree without a doubt) then I've been tempted. Easy decision to tell you the truth for me personally. 
Anyway, wanted to say thanks to the contributors here on this forum for offering me advice here and there and hope I helped someone with the couple of 'How to' guides I put together on this forum.

So long guys, all the best

Graham from Oldham (now Winsford)

  Wheel Swap 105's for 115's
Posted by: Scoobysn7x - 9:th-Aug-2016, 16:48:25 - Forum: Parts for sale - Replies (13)

This is probably a long short, but I purchase some 19" alloys for my Astra being told they were 5x115, and sadly they won't fit the car, they are 5x105, just wondering if anyone has some 5x115 they would swap for these alloys

  Fuel Gauge Indicator
Posted by: Farrael - 9:th-Aug-2016, 13:26:54 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (7)

Hi!

I've an Astra J Sports Tourer 1.7CDTI and i've a little question about the fuel gauge indicator.

When I make a corner I notice the fuel gauge indicator moves a little but when it gets straight the gauge doesn't move to the previous position, like i've lost fuel.

It's common happening this?

Regards!
