Ben's 2.0CDTi Ecoflex Se
Evening All,

It's been a couple weeks since I got my Astra and it's time to start a (rather plain probably) progress thread. 

So, I chose the Astra as my previous car (Alfa 159) was rather pricey to run and with even more miles on my commute I thought it was best to downsize to something that just works really. 

It hasn't been the best of starts as I picked it up on Friday 13th (tempting fate here? haha) and by the Monday was in the garage for a leaky boot, rumbling suspension and the d

Astra 2.0cdti dpf regen info?
Hello all,
I've owned my 64 plate 2.0cdti elite auto for around a year now. So I'm getting quite used to the dpf regeneration function.
My driving style usually consists of longer journeys around 60% of the time. Although the other time is spent driving around town. Never usually do less than a 7 mile journey, even around town. My dpf seems to regenerate around every 1-2 weeks. Although It's not done on an intelligent basis. I.e I have been on a long journey. Stopped the car for half an hour.

Pedalbox 2,0CDTI S/S 165hp best setting?
I have a pedalbox for my 2015 GTC 2,0CDTi 165bhp S/S

Read the if setting is too aggressive it will trigger the EML light.

Does anyone know what the highest or, in your opinion, is the best setting without getting EML light on.

Astra J 2.0cdti engine removal
Hi was wondering if anyone has had the engine out the astra as long story short I need a new clutch and water pump but I know it is a sub frame off job for gearbox removal but was thinking of just lifting out the engine and doing the clutch and timing belt and water pump etc that way. Was just to see if anyone has managed to lift it out without removing the sub frame and gearbox.

Dissapointed with 2.0cdti mpg
So I've had my astra sports toured a week and I'm pretty pleased with everything except the fuel economy im averaging about 42-44 mpg and thats in eco mode driving sensibly. My old car I traded in was a 09 vectra 1.9diesel and it averaged 49ish.
I thought with this being a newer car ( 2015 with 22k on.) I'd at least get something similar to the vectra.

So for those who've a standard 2.0 what you getting mpg wise.
