  Oscillating Light Rumble when driving at 70mph
Posted by: Vx-Mad-G - 25:th-Oct-2016, 09:15:08 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (3)

Hi,

I went to test drive an Astra-J 2.0 CDTI 2011 last week and when I drove it, it was splendid, however when I got to 70mph under my seat I could feel what can only be described as an oscillating rumble, not loads, but like something was grinding. Only happened and 70mph, when I slowed down, it went away, and when I went over 70mph it went away, literally between 68-72mph.

Any ideas what that could have been?

Car is still available, if its something minor, I could go back to it.

My thoughts were tyres, discs or brakes, but all of these were brand new about 3 months ago and premium brands, my other thought was a bearing??

Whats your thoughts.

Regards,
G.

  Lowering springs damage CV joints?
Posted by: newredgtc - 20:th-Oct-2016, 19:19:48 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (4)

Hi all.

Vauxhall did a health check on my GTC today and all good except both my CV joints are split. Unfortunately they said they won't be covered under warranty because it's a result of the Eibach's I've fitted.

Dealer fob-off or have they got a point?

Manager's calling me tomorrow, and i've done a quick bit of research myself and from what I understand the lowered springs cause the joint to sit at a different angle?

Any thoughts? Thanks all.

  hello from SM Graphix
Posted by: Stevie@SMGraphix - 16:th-Oct-2016, 18:37:21 - Forum: SMGraphix - No Replies

Hi everyone,

Firstly thanks to the Admin for inviting us onto the forum as traders,

We can offer car decals/wall vinyls/custom phone cases/printed mugs and alot more,

Our facebook page can be found here where you can see some examples of our work.

One thing to mention however is that we unfortunately cannot produce full colour image stickers as we have a vinyl cutter not a printer.

Due to this being our part time 'hobby' and we have a 5 year old little boy to look after we ask that you wait 7-14 days for delivery, it is normally sooner but I can not guarantee it unless by prior arrangement.

Anyway, any questions please ask, discounts given on bulk orders and a design service is available.

NB: for complicated designs you may be asked to pay prior to design work being done.


Thanks for looking.

Steve

SM GRAPHIX.

  Windscreen Insurance
Posted by: sheppy1 - 15:th-Oct-2016, 18:54:57 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (10)

Hey guys!

Does anyone know if it's possible to buy windscreen insurance on its own? I know it's included with my insurance but I want to know of there are any third party companies out there that actually sell it on its own.

Thanks
