Hope your all well and keeping busy with your Astra's, I know I am.

I'm here looking for info on the crankcase ventilation of my GTC. I have serious a vacuum in my crankcase/head causing bad whining or squealing when the car is warm.
Its definitely the vacuum causing the squealing as when I remove the dipstick or oil cap it stops dead.
I'm thinking a PCV valve is causing this but im unsure on how the system works on these cars.

Hi
I bought a 13 reg Astra J  1.7 diesel 3 years ago & I need a new battery..
Is it a straight swap in & out or are there any nuances I need to know before I change? Alarm/door lock/anti theft etc etc

I dont know if my car has a stop start system because it never worked but would not surprise me if it had it?
Is there any way of know whether a car has stop/start system or not


cheers
