The Wife's 1.7cdti Mokka

Posted by: Rusty2009 - 2:nd-Nov-2019, 11:13:21 - Forum: Members car's progress threads - Replies (41)

So I bought the wife a Mokka at last.

It is 2013 EXCLUSIV 1.7cdti with AFL.

There was an issue with the AFL lights doing a constant start up which was resolved with a new headlight unit.

The Mrs wanted me to give it the full VXOCElectrabizz treatment.

So I started with an LED conversion & LED interior bulb upgrades along with adding footwell lighting.

Next was to remove the CD400+ and retrofit a Navi950 DAB+ & Rear camera.

Next was to install some better D3S bulbs when swapping the headlight out.

One of the parking sensors needed repainted as the paint had come off along with the primer.

I also fitted a DPF warning LED so the Mrs will be quickly alerted if the car is doing a regen.

clock change

Posted by: niteram - 29:th-Oct-2019, 20:07:45 - Forum: Electrical - Replies (1)

I know this sounds daft, but I cant change the time on either of my 2 astra js
more to the point, when I change the clocks, they go back to the old time (BST) after about 5 mins of driving

I changed the time on my tourer, drove around the corrner, turned off to go in shops, started up and drove away, clock was correct, 5 mins later I looked at clock and it suddenly had gained the hour.

my daughter had the same with her J
mine has Navi600, hers CD400

we have had both cars a few years and changed clocks before without hassel in past

any ideas??

ASTRA J HEADUNIT ISSUE

Posted by: AstraJ_OwnerSK - 29:th-Oct-2019, 02:26:12 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (1)

I have a aftermarket head unit installed never had a issue for 2 years(was pre installed before purchase), its a Driveaudio Premium V2 with a cd400 stereo unit. Today I had installed some canbus led light bulbs, kept getting errors so have removed them since. I didn't realise until I needed to use my headlight that every time I turned my headlights on the rear camera would come on but says on screen no signal (camera works as should in reverse gear). I've disconnected the battery for about 15mintes but that didn't fix the problem. I'm just wondering if anyone has any suggestion to help fix this, maybe a fuse or relay but don't know where to start.
Thank you for any helpful advice.

Astra/Meriva hubs for new alloys

Posted by: hooper - 24:th-Oct-2019, 23:06:58 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (3)

	Hello A friend of mine has donated to me a set of mint condition 18in Vauxhall alloys. The only issue is they are off a 2013 Meriva and have 5x110 pcd. My 2013 Astra 2.0 cdti has a pcd of 5x115. I love the wheels and would like to use them. Can I change out the hubs on my Astra for Meriva hubs? I figured this would be cheaper than a set of alloys. Thanks

	Hi Folks. Just bought myself a 2012 1.7 cdti SE sports tourer.. loving it so far. I've always had Vauxhall's going back to mk2 Cavaliers and owned Zafira's for the last 12 years. Got a bit of water in the boot, looks like it's coming from the tailgate so I'm looking for some hints.

Sports Tourer DAB+ on Android Headunit

Posted by: MikeyP247 - 14:th-Oct-2019, 16:21:49 - Forum: ICE - Replies (2)

11 plate Tourer with CD400 factory option - now running an Android W072 headunit.

I have the factory DAB cables in the drivers footwell, so assume I have the lead that runs to glass aerial built in (drivers side in Tourer).
I know there is an amplifier that fits to this with FAKRA cable connector.

Wanting to know:
If the wiring runs from the footwell to the rear and location of plug in loom (above window, below trim etc).
If it is, can I use this cable (with an adapter loom up front, from a USB powered Android DAB+ unit) to run a factory amplifier (does it power it). Alternatively - what options do I have to replace the roof mounted (standard FM - not shark fin) aerial and how would I connect/power that?

Cheers in advance for any suggestions or info.
