Remap / New Member, Hi!
hi guys,

So I'm a new member to this community here. Actually, I'm a new member to joining a forum about cars in general.

I've got an Astra GTC 1.4 (120) Ltd Edition,
I'm looking at possibly remapping her through Remapkings as suggested by a friend. The site has shown that it would go from 120 to 171, and torque from 200nm to 271 (priced at £234)

I was just wondering a few questions:
- If anyone has any experience remapping the 1.4 GTC, how did it go for you? Did you notice any proble

Coolant light coming on when coolant is full (new sensor and no leaks) baffling me!
Hi everyone,

So randomly a couple of weeks ago I got "coolant level low" light on. So I topped it up a little. It came on again so I added a little more to the point that it's on or over where it should be. The error keeps popping up but it will disappear after 10-20 seconds.

[color=#ffffff][size=small]I've checked and there are no leaks and the coolant isn't going down at all. I've replaced the coolant sen

Wobble after new tyres
Hi

I had new tyres fitted to the front on my 20inch standard wheels and there is a slight wobble at motorway speeds. I’ve had the front wheel alignment sorted and the wheel balancing checked by another garage and I also got the rears balanced but the wobble is still there. Any ideas? It was perfect prior to the new tyres being fitted. I was thinking of swapping the front and rear tyres to see if this helps

a new member short introduction
Hello all,

My name is Marcin. I have just signed up to this forum.

I must say, I have been following it since 2014, but only now I have decided to join.

Sine 2011 I have been driving Opel brand cars - firstly Astra J on 11 plate, later on another Astra J on 13 plate and a few years ago I bought an Insignia A facelift on 15 plate.

Myself and my wife have been happy with all those vehicles.

All of them have been great for long journeys.

Soon, I will try to post some pictures of

DPF problems almost new
Hello all, recently I got some error messages on my 1.3 Astra but before I go to a specialist I would like to see if is something that I can do by myself


So, a couple of days ago I got "Service Vehicle Soon" message before starting the engine. I kinda think that the problem might be related with the DPF since in the last 3 weeks I've used the car only for a couple of miles to reach my work place. I've moved very close to work but since I don't have a parking permit yet, I need to move my ca
