  Hi from Gateshead

Hi to everyone here.  

I've just taken delivery of my '61 plate Astra SE CDTi 2l today.  I'd hoped to push my '54 Astra H up to 123456 miles for the fun of it, but it as soon as I saw the Astra J in charcoal grey I knew I had to be driving that next week.  

I've had it out for a bit of mixed urban and motorway driving this evening and am totally impressed with how it runs, handles, looks and feels.  I'm not surprised to find the CD400 to be about as much use as the CD30 was, but am hoping to transplant my Pure Highway from one to the other, which will give me iPod, USB and DAB functionality.  

I'm new to car forums so forgive newbie questions please!

Andrew

Posted by: phil67 - 13:th-Sep-2018, 13:15:56 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC Technical - Replies (2)

Just been doing a few bits to the car under the bonnet and found a Meta System T30 on top of the battery, what is it for looking on net it’s say it’s a tracker others say it an insurance black box?

Do I need it on the car or is it used as part of the my Vauxhall app associated with on star?

Cheers

It comes with
950 head unit
Colour display
Display surround
950 control panel
The display lead(rare)
Genuine USB lead
USB housing
Dab plus module

I will also program it to your car for you. They are not plug and play as wiring mods are needed. But if you are regular on here you will know its a job me and Russell can do.

  Heated seat diagnostic issue
Posted by: Damian56 - 13:th-Sep-2018, 09:40:14 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (1)

Hi folks,

I bought a second hand 2012 Astra Elite which is running pretty well, only problem is the heated seats. The passenger one kind of works but feels like some of the modules aren't working, the driver's seat's lights go on for 15 seconds and then black out - no heat.

I took it in for a service, hoping my mechanic would be able to sort it, unfortunately their diagnostic tools don't look at the seats. His advice was to take it to a Vauxhall garage, but warned they're probably charge me £90 just to plug in the diagnostic tool. 

My question is, can anyone recommend a cheaper option, is there a tool I can buy online that will tell me what's wrong with the seats? The mechanic thought they'd all be the same as his (e.g. not go into that kind of detail)

Any advice would be massively appreciated.

  Options to replace Navi 400 in 62 plate Astra
Posted by: Atarius - 10:th-Sep-2018, 21:56:14 - Forum: Retrofit Research - Replies (7)

Hi there


I've recently bought a second hand 62 plate sri turbo, and loving the car overall. Was buying second hand so didn't have a huge amount of choice in relation to optional extras etc!

However, I've got the basic navi 400 without bluetooth connectivity. It's all a bit too basic, and I'm planning to keep this car for a few years, so looking at options to replace the infotainment system.

I'm hoping someone might be able to let me know what is available in terms of other vauxhall/opel units that would be a straight swap (and possibly the process of replacing, and connecting new unit to wheel controls for example). I've heard there are also aftermarket options out there (including some that potentially work with carplay etc!?), and would also be interested to see if anyone has any experience of them too?

I understand that there are some android units on the market too. However, the easier the install the better as I'm going to look at doing it myself!

Thanks in advance, grateful if anyone is able to help!

I'm an Astra TT owner. I'll be looking at replacing it with a Vauxhall Cascada in the near future when I move house to a safer neighbourhood (hopefully!).

Do you guys know of any plans for a more powerful Cascada? Like the 280 PS Astraj J or anything like that?

  1.6 cdti power loss
Posted by: ihastings - 10:th-Sep-2018, 15:09:59 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (25)

Hi Folks, I've recently bought a 2014 astra 1.6cdti sports tourer techline which is giving me no end of trouble...

When I collected the car from Arnold Clark I didnt think anything of the "Service Vehicle soon" message when putting the key in the ignition as I'd mistakenly assumed that the service warning hadn't been reset following the pre-sale service. Turns out, as I found out the next day, that the DPF had issues as when turned on ignition to set up my phone with the headunit, the dispaly on the dash was displaying a "DPF full continue driving mandatory" message. Blasted car in 3rd for a few miles and message disappeared, only to reappear the next day. Follwed previous action and cleared again. Informed dealer of issue which they agreed to look at. 2 forced regens and a set of high pressure glow plugs later, car was returned seemingly fixed.

I now have an issue where the car (once engine up to temp) loses power when pushed, eg overtaking or accelerating up a steep gradient. By loss of power i mean car hesitates then refuses to rev past 200 rpm, no fault indicated on display, no power reduced message or service vehicle soon. pulling in and turning the car off and back on again cures the issue at least for 50 or so miles. Also don't seem to get much mileage between passive regens( assuming read demist active when not commanded is a passive regen..), 50 - 100 miles, I would have thought around 200+ would be the norm. I suspect DPF issue was a symptom of another fault?
