Hi all
Found you after Googling about problems with my heated drivers seat. Had my 3rd year service and 1st mot on 29/9/14, and a few weeks later the heater starts switching off after a couple of minutes.
The dealer has confirmed that there is a notification from Vauxhall about this issue from May this year, but as the warranty has now expired, they are waiting for Vauxhall to decide what to do..

Google took me to your forum post about this issue, and seemed more informative than other sites I had

Hi all from Manchester!
Hi everybody!

Got my first car, which happens to be a White Astra GTC 1.7 SRI

Been looking all over the place to see what I can upgrade/tweak and it's looking like this is the place to do just that! Looking for any advice/recommendations on what parts to get, such as lighting and upgrading the CD player to a NAV one..

Thanks all!

Here's a pic of the car when i picked it up...
