Hello, does anybody know how to remove the sun visor on an Astra J GTC.

I have taken the cap off, have removed the 3 screws, but I'm not able to get the sun visor out, it doesn't just pull out.

There seems to be clips of some sort holding it in?

Thanks.

Hi everyone,

Car overheated on Saturday, checked coolant level and nothing remaining in reservoir. Topped it up and made it home. Not easy to see where the leak is coming from, I think it may be the water pump, which I believe is a known issue on these cars. 

Taking it to a garage tomorrow. If is a water pump, what work would usually be completed additional to the pump replacement. Timing belt? Tensioners? 

Whats a reasonable price for water replacement?

Cheers

Hi all. New to the forum, just starting to take the first steps into modding / upgrading my 2013 GTC 1.4T.

Owned the car almost a year, but not really been the year to start with the dreaded C virus! 

Ordered the Racechip GTS to get me up and running. Trying to work on performance alongside looks. Will likely setup an Insta for the transformation.

Nice to meet you all!

Good morning all, 

I have just changed the daytime running lights from the standard halogen bulbs to Canbus LED T20 7443 W21/5's and now they don't seem to come on on Auto light mode, nor when I unlock the car now they don't come on. If I want them on I have to switch to sidelights for them to come on. Is there any fix to this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you,

Hello all,

Useless with cars but my GTC (2014 (64 plate)) the gear knob has effectively broke. The little silver latch that I hold has broken. Vauxhall are quoting my 600 quid but I cba to pay that. Really don't want to.

I'm wondering if someone could help me identify what replacement I'd require? I have no idea about cars. Quite frankly I bought the GTC 4 years ago and I drive it. Never had an issue with it thankfully.

I'm not particularly knowledgeable when it comes to what Opals are or Ast

Hi All

The tailgate latch on my Astra J 1.7 CDTI estate has packed up and doesn't respond to me unlocking the car either with the remote key or using the switch on the facia panel.

Thanks to a post on this forum, I was able to unlock the tailgate from inside the car which got me out of trouble.

I checked the fuse (assuming I checked the correct one) and it seems fine.  In any case I can see 12v on a couple of the pins in the connector that plugs into the lock mechanism.

I took a punt

Hello! I've recently bought a 2014 Astra J Biturbo, it's only got the rear parking sensors, and therefor the distance is audible only. I am wondering what is involved in fitting front sensors, and having it programmed appropriately.

I have seen posts regarding retrofits, but can't seem to find one with info when you already have just the rears. 

Any information is appreciated, many thanks, Pedro

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
