Hi all I've got Astra J 1.7 cdti recently it has been what I would describe as a misfire but tonight on the moterway on way home from work it started to happen quite regularly and felt as if it was going to cut out it was happening while in cruise control and out of cruise control when It was in cc and losing power it would turn off cc but there is no warning lights or fault codes showing any help would be greatly appreciated someone suggested it could be the fuel pump

Hey folks, 

Following on from my other thread, where I was asking for advice about an Astra-J, you guys gave me some great feedback and pretty much turned me away from the 1.7 CDTI when I was on the verge of buying one...so thank you and hope thats a decision that serves me well.

Anyway, many searches and viewing on from that thread, and I have now finally bought an Astra-J.

So, I h

I was previously running a 2010 Smart fortwo as my second vehicle, which helped keep some of my 30K mileage a year off of the Astra

However, soon after buying the Smart it became obvious it was lemon in the automated manual gearbox department........

6 break downs, all gearbox related, one new clutch actuator later and yet still the same issues persisted.........

Car has been rejected by me back to the supplying garage via the finance company, which is proving to be a long, drawn out an

Guys,

In anticipation of needing a new battery, im interested to find out the differences.

I just purchased a new Astra and it has had Code 22 pop up ever since I had picked it up, last Sunday which I found out on google is the right sides light has a fault or is a non-generic light. 

I looked at the car this morning and actually have realised it seems to be missing a light (I think)

One claiming that comprehensive car insurance premiums rose on average by 14% (£95) during 2016 and the other that men still pay more than women even though gender equality rules state insurers can't specifically use gender as a rating factor.

Of course, on the question of gender there are other risk factors that produce the result - men tend to cover more miles and are more likely to drive for
