Hi,
I've been having a few engine hiccups with my Astra J 1.4T.
I have replaced the coil pack as I heard the  original was prone to causing problems.
Anyway today I took the spark plugs out to take a look and was surprised to find these.
They are labelled as GM Champion RC10MCC R6
They were fitted by a main dealer in January 2016 as part of the service.
Does anyone recognise these as being the correct type?
Have they fitted the wrong type?
I thought they were supposed to be IFR7X-7G, GM 5557026.
Thanks for your help!

read somewhere ages ago that if you have an astra with 17inch wheels then you are better off buying the 16 inch spare wheel as the 17inch wheels abit too big for the well, does that make sence, sounds weird to me, what spare wheel does the astra 18inch wheels have if that is true

Hey all new to the forum so introducing myself.

I'm Andy from Leicester and have had a 2003 2.2 SRi Astra until it finally gave up recently.

So last month I treated myself to a 2013 Astra GTC 2.0 CDTI SRi Auto and I absolutely love it.

Bought with 11k miles on the clock from 1 former disabled owner everything about it was in great condition.

The only things I have done to it so far is swap the DRL bulbs for a nice white colour and put my personal plate on it.

Picture below next plans are some 19" alloys and I wouldn't mind putting a built in Nav unit.

Also want to de-chrome the outside with a body coloured grill and will put a carbon tape over the window surrounds.

Anybody got pictures of there GTC Lowered on 20 inch wheels?

Just saw this whilst having a quick look through eBay... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vauxhall-Astra...SweWVXerg1

Vauxhall Astra J Android Stereo + reverse camera

This listing is for an Android based stereo for the Vauxhall Astra J.


Will also include a free unused reverse camera.

I bought this stereo and used it in my car for around 9 months. It is an amazing stereo. These stereos still sell for around £300 new which makes this listing a bargain. The screen itself has no marks or scratches on it in the slightest and it looks brilliant in all lighting conditions. There is a small crack in the bottom left and right of the plastic surrounding the screen but they are so small I actually couldn't accurately photograph them and probably would have went unnoticed if I didn't mention it. The screen itself is unaffected by this. I have simply moved onto another car so no longer have any need for this but I will definitely be getting an android stereo in the new one.

I bought the stereo originally from here so go here if you want the full specification

FEEDBACK
Just some of the people we've helped to a better car insurance deal in recent weeks...

"+1 from me, took my policy out today after you guys quoted over £1000 LESS than Academy and Adrian Flux (and £300 less than the cheapest price comparison website quote)." octaviaconvert, Briskoda

"All I can say is the staff member who dealt with me (Tabitha) was nothing other than professional and very helpful, even when I called back to sort out the email I have to send for proof of my NCD. She was very helpful to an old numpty like me telling me I don't need to send it off until I'm paying, quality service all round." Mick.M, Focus ST Owners Club

"Happy chappy! Just wanted to say how pleased I am with Chris Knott Insurance. Just called to update my reg number as my private plate is now going on the car, my call went straight through to Daryl who was efficient and clear and best of all there was no charge for doing this (quite right too) although all other firms seem to charge! Please pass my comments on, so far so good with Chris Knott and I'm glad I chose them, so thanks MPSOC for the heads up (I didn't know of CK before this forum)." Mr and Mrs MPS, MPS Owners Club

"A Big Thank You for making my Insurance enquiry so easy and dealing with it. Cheers Guys." D15VRS, Briskoda

"Purchased car insurance through Chris Knott Insurance, very pleasant easy experience and most of all competitive prices. Thanks a bunch, especially Kathy who has exceptional customer service." bladerider666, SeatCupra net

"You guys just beat my best quote by £40 and my renewal by £70, so I'm a happy chappy." DPurchese, BMW Z4 Forum

"I spoke to Ian at lunch, the 2x quotes they gave me for our cars are currently cheaper than any multi-car quote we've had so far. I need to do some more checks tonight but so far Chris Knott are the best deal ." lfcrule1972, DS3 Owners Club

"I went ahead with Chris Knott... £720 for both MX5's." TomTom, DS3 Owners Club

"Insured mine for £500, just waiting for Joni's renewal to be up and then we'll see what deal we can get with hers on there too. Thanks as ever Nick." Dangerousfish, DS3 Owners Club

"Would like to thank Melinda for taking the time to price match the better quote I found for both cars & keeping us as a customer. It was refreshing to be treated as a valued customer." Rusty2009, VXOC Astra-J/GTC forum

"Kathy, kindest regards, and thanks for being so lovely and "human" to speak too!" Hannah Gosden, Canterbury

"I was in the process of buying my Mazda 6 2.2d Takuya, and looking for the best insurance quotes. Having done the usual searches through Google and coming up short on various price comparison websites, I thought I would check out this forum. I found the number and called Chris Knott, at the time of calling I hadn't bought the car but was planning on getting it after work, I found out the office closed at 5pm but Rebecca said she would call me at 4:55pm and she was happy to stay later to complete my sign up. Overall it was a great experience dealing with Rebecca, she was very thorough and professional, more to the point she gave me the best quote." gt2.2, Mazda6 Owners Club

So the crazy but amazing turkish astra owners have amazed themselves again. They do claim its not a photoshop but we shall see lol
