After being unable to source a piston it looks like I need to go down the new engine route. I believe I have a 1.7 a17dte,do I need to put the exact same engine back in or can I use a a17 DTC or any others ? Again any help would be really appreciated

I tried to fit my new pioneer AVH-z5000DAB into my Astra today.
Everything went according to plan except one thing.

It seems that the fascia doesn't fit as it should. Any ideas?

Hi all!

Looking for some advice. Driving home earlier and at about 40mph I jad "Service ESP" flash up on the trip display- additonal to this the TC light and ABS warning lights both showed in the gauges!

Does anybody have any idea what this could be?

Cheers folks

I have an Astra J 1.4 turbo which the other week I knocked a hose off which is held on with a little plastic clip and radiator coolant was pumping out like a fountain (as car engine was running). It is the hose that T off another hose and leads to the expansion tank (smaller pipe), as I said the T hose is held on with a little plastic clip.

Hi guys, after a bit of advice!

I’ve had to replace the whole OSR door on my J, however the newer one comes with electric windows whereas mine were originally manually operated. Is this easy to put back to manual? I dont want to spend extra making the electric work for one side! Is it a straight swap from the old door to new one? 

Many thanks!

Hi All,

I am new to the Astra club, my first Astra and I love it so far nearly 3 months in and no bothers!

Recently I have decided to invest a little more into her, I am looking for help on purchasing an induction kit(to replace the housing box and panel filter)

I have had kits and filters in the past on previous petrol cars but this is my very first diesel and i found it impossible to source anything.

I do not want a panel filter so please do not recommend them, Ideally I would like

Hey all,
Wonder if any of you can help us,
We had a little trouble with the tailgate not closing so i cleaned up the mechanism and sprayed it etc and it worked perfect for a few months, now its stuck shut.
The central locking is working fine except you cant hear the click in the tailgate, I checked the fuse and its fine.
I have all the plastics and trim off and for the life of me I cannot find the switch to open it manually.
Can any of you kind souls help.
TIA
