  Front suspension knock?????
Posted by: Sri~mike - 11:th-Mar-2019, 20:27:56 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (10)

Hey guys, I’ve recently noticed that driving over uneven/ rough roads that I’m getting a knocking noise, if I hit a pothole or large bump there’s nothing but any sort of slight bumps or similar and I’m getting lots of knocks like the anti roll bar bushes are shot, last weekend I got it on my mates 2 poster ramp and got the pry bar out checking everything and it’s all completely solid, but for how cheap they were I fitted a pair of new drop links thinking it could only be them but no joy, all my shockers are clean and bone dry and springs are perfect and I lowered the car so the tyres were about an inch off the ground and put a long pry bar under each wheel to check the top mounts and no play whatsoever, please help???? Oh also it’s a 1.4 Sri on a 65 plate with 40k miles thanks

  West Essex new owner
Posted by: AK16 - 9:th-Mar-2019, 00:23:40 - Forum: Introduction Area - Replies (2)

Hi everybody, 

New owner here of a late registered 2016 Astra J 1.4 Turbo Limited Edition in Asteroid Grey.

Love the car. The steering feel & driving position is great. Only 16000 miles on the clock and smells like a leather sofa when you shut the door. 

Previous cars were a heavily modified 2001 Honda Accord Type R (with the 2.2 H22 vtec lump) and a 2009 Ford Focus Zetec S 1.8, which thankfully was written off in January.

I did an oil & filter change today (Dexos 1, Gen 2 engine oil) and I plan to fit a K & N panel filter next week.

I fully expect that i'll modify the car because I have a history of messing around/tinkering with cars that I like.
