  Airbag Light
Posted by: sheppy1 - 4:th-Apr-2015, 22:13:08 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (5)

Hi All,

Okay, just had something brought to my attention about the airbag light which would normally be on the dashboard next to where the hazard button is. I'm sure that I used to have a light which lit up and showed something about the airbag being enabled...Vauxhall also said that I should be seeing one...but it's not lit up now and i'm sure it used to be...Does anyone know what I mean and also know if it should or shouldn't be lit up...?

Thanks

  parking sensors
Posted by: Gilmore - 4:th-Apr-2015, 14:04:45 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (3)

Anybody ever had any trouble with them, mine has them front and rear, fitted by vauxhall from new I believe,  when I select reverse the automatically switch on, but yesterday when I selected reverse,  I only got a message in dash, saying 'parking assist off' and I am unable to switch them back on via the button on the facia

I didn't really like them when I first got the car, but now that they don't work, I'm missing them and realising I must of been relying on them a lot

  Paint Trim
Posted by: sheppy1 - 31:st-Mar-2015, 22:25:34 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (9)

Hi Again! 

Sorry for posting a few threads in a row, basically trying to carry out some of the work on my car which has been bugging me since day 1 but on the cheap rather than shelling out loads of money which I don't have!

Right, so I've always wanted the chrome trim around the doors...it's going to cost £80 for the stick on trim which is out of my budget at present. Is there any way to paint this trim a different colour (maybe even glossy black)? Assuming this is possible but wondering if I have to remove it from the car first or if it would be possible to do it while it's on the car...if so, what would I need? 

Can carry out a quick Google to find out generic info on how to paint this trim but want to know from you guys who know Astra's well and have done similar work before! 

Thanks


  Chrome Headlights
Posted by: sheppy1 - 31:st-Mar-2015, 22:17:33 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (4)

Evening All!

Okay so not something I'll be able to undertake any time soon as i have a list of work I want to do which is growing by the day with less and less money to fund it! Ha. But I wanted to see if anyone knows if it is possible to install the chrome trim which sits inside the headlights? As with most of the other chrome trim, my car seems to not have this and I do wish I had it.

Probably going to be a full headlight swap I imagine but as I have no reason to do this other than the chrome I want, I thought I'd see if it's something that can just be added on cheaply

Thanks


  Hidden Options
Posted by: sheppy1 - 31:st-Mar-2015, 16:45:25 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (4)

Hi guys,

Right, I'm sure I remember being able to go into some hidden options in the trip computer when I first got the car which allowed to to turn things on like "auto reverse wipers" etc. Not sure how I got to these options though...Thought it was something like pulling both stalks towards me or something like that but nothing seems to work.

Anyone know how to get to these Options or was it just dreaming?

Thanks
