Finally... Astra J GTC, 1.6 Turbo, SRi
Greetings to all Astra and car fans. I haven't written to the forum for a long time, but maybe this post will please someone. For the last 10 years I have been the satisfied owner of the Astra H Caravan, 1.7 CDTI. I take good care of that car and I've done a lot on it. Today, she has 324.000 km, but she is still doing well. However, in the last year or so I have somehow started to look around and peek at a possible successor.
My needs and requirements regarding the car have become quite refin
Please advise - Z16LET engine (1.6 turbo, 132 kW) - is it a direct or indirect port?
Hello guys,
searching a lot I was not able to find if the Z16LET - 1.6 turbo, 132 kW petrol engine is a direct or an indirect port engine. I suppose that this 180 HP engine that was used in the 2nd gen of Astras H an then in Astras J is an indirect port petrol engine. And I suppose the 200 HP 1.6 turbo petrol engine that came later is already a direct port engine. Can anyone please confirm or specify this? Thank you.
1.4T Engine noise
Hi Everyone,
My 2017 1.4T with just under 50k miles on it has started to make an engine noise, like a chudder. This is at idle and increases with RPM.
Ive captured it on video. Wasn't sure best way to host the video so I've got a
Any idea what this could be?
Cheers
1.4t EGR
Hi,
I currently keep getting a underboost error on my 1.4t.
I am looking to clean my egr valve as the error points to that. But I can find naff all about the valve on this engine. Where is it and how can it be removed? Anyone got tips or even better a link?
Does the egr need to be deleted in the ecu if blanked on this engine?
Thanks,
Ben
weird motor sound Astra J 1.4 turbo
Hi all
I am quite new at this forum, so this is my first poost and I hope not break any rules.
In the last days I noticed my Astra is making some weird noise. It seems there is some broken piece inside and quite often creates this `crack` sound.
The car is an ASTRA J 1.4 turbo 140cv with 67.000km
I want able to attach the video, but I share a google drive link where you can watch and hear the noise.

1.7 CDTI - Stutters, then runs super rough, stalls and starts back up after 1h.
Hi,
For the 2nd time now I have encountered the same issue.
My car doesn't get used much for long trips nowadays but I encountered this problem on his last long trip a week ago and one month ago:
Car driving fine, full power no error messages.
Suddenly no power when pushing gas pedal, car begins to stutter instead. But still runs in idle. Engine light comes on.
This problem gets worse over the next seconds until the car runs so rough in idle it stalls.
Restarting the car goes suuper ro
What should be the operating temperature of the 1.6 Turbo engine?
Hi, I have a question for the owners of a car with a 1.6 Turbo engine (A16LET) - what is your continuous water temperature after the engine has warmed up? For me, according to the data on the board (I haven't measured it with OPCOM yet), it's between 105 - 110 ° C without starting the fan, so I don't know if it's too much. But the fan starts around those 110 ° and knocks it slightly below 100 °. I read somewhere that thermostats are problematic with these engines, so I don't know. Thanks for the

Software for 1.6T
Hey Forum,
I've been into modding for most of my life but more the old school way of NA (expensive way of going slow) and also turbo'ing cars that weren't turbo from factory. More recently I've been playing around with more modern cars where software and bolton's make great gains.
After reading up on the 1.6T is seems it isn't the strongest of motor & gearbox combo's but should handle stg1 sw with relative ease. I'm not that familiar with the UK market so have done allot of googling. I'
Astra 1.6 CDTi Turbo Issues P2598
HI Everyone,
Hopefully someone here can help me? I have a 2015 Astra J 1.6CDTi. The engine management light came on a few weeks back after an hour or so driving and car went into low power mode. Managed to get the car home and after a night on the drive the power was back, engine light still on. Eventually the engine light went away but the same error came back a week or so later. Plugged in a cheap code reader and got P2598. Took the car to Vauxhall who said the turbo had failed and needed r
