2.0 CDTI Induction?
What do you recon, is it possible to fit an induction kit or something to the 2.0CDTI, I don't really care about the performance thats why I'm getting a remap, but what I am trying to replicate is the noise my Old Mini Cooper D made. Basically a bit more noise from what I can assume was the turbo or induction kit from research, to make it sound a little nicer under acceleration.

2.0 CDTI Stop/Start and the DTUK RED BOX
Vauxhall have issued an update for the ECU for all 2.0 CDTI 160/165Ps with Stop/Start.

There has been reports that this is stopping the DTUK RED BOX working correctly, DTUK are aware of this and have worked on a fix for it although the fix might not work for all at this time.

I emailed DTUK this morning to find out where I stand as I already own the box I was told

Spare wheel for Astra J from 2.0 CDTi [SOLD]
For sale is a spare wheel and tool kit for a Astra J 2.0 CDTi so  It's a 16inch spare so I don't believe it will fit the GTC's  I know it doesn't fit on the VXR.

The carpet that sits under the spare and the bolt that secures it.

Cdti dump valve
Hi guys, correct me if I'm wrong but does the cdti have a dump valve? I hear the whoosh sound when changing 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears and wondered if you could mod it to make it louder?

Thorney Motorsport Tuning Box - Astra J - 2.0 cdti
As it says above. Run on my car for about 8k and worked faultlessly.

No box, but supplied with fitting instructions. Unfortunately when I was removing it I broke one of the surrounds to the plugs. It still fits perfectly and won't move or pop out.

Comes complete with a blanking plug to return car to normal if you wish.

TMS Link gives figures etc. - http://www.thorney.ms/tuning-box-template-2151.html

These retail at £500.

1.7 CDTI idle unsteady
Hi guys 

So yesterday I drove from Norfolk to West Yorkshire ~150 miles and noticed that now my car is idling a bit odd, will idle fine then the revs drop a little & it almost chugs a bit, then goes back to normal and the car idles ok again, then the cycle starts again. It doesn't cut out and no warning light.

I thought it was just doing a regen but it did it yesterday afternoon, evening, and today both times I've driven it. Ive now done probably 40 miles with it like it (that I've noticed

What gearbox oil ? 1.7 cdti
Hi guys I got the astra 1.7 cdti as you prob all know the gear box is crap lol,I have read up on changing the gear box oil ... Most people say that the vaux one is shot they basically use the same for power steering ... I was thinking of using thishttp://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=181494589911&alt=web 
it states that it is ok for a 1.7 cdti but I want to be sure before I buy it ... My friend has the m32 box in his corsa and he put this oil in it and he said it feels a lot smoother
