Hi, my name is Andy.

I picked up a 2011 Astra J Excite 1.7cdti on Tuesday and am looking to do some tasteful mods over the next few months.... until i get carried away and probably divorced that is!!

Can anyone help me though, I need to get a new key cut and coded for the car as it only came with 1.

I have experience (enabled cruise control on my Astra H a few years back) of OP-COM. Can this job be done through that?

If so - where can I get the key cut and where can I get the latest

Just purchased today. Had to laugh the Salesman who i purchased from said the Astra doesnt have service booklets. Just said okay.

Went through 2 x VECTRA B, Vectra B 2.5 GSi, Signum 2.8i Design, moved to Honda Accord Tourer for a bit and broke an 'unbreakable' engine, had a BMW 318i Saloon that I couldn't get on with the boot shape with so I've just got an Astra J Estate.  Bit of an engine downgrade from the thirsty motors to a 1.7 diesel but it

Hi everyone. Just bought a GTC SRI 2.0 auto for my wife, test drove it for two days and I am well impressed with the car. I am starting to get jealous and afraid she won't let me drive it too often

It has 87000 miles on the clock and I created a list of jobs to start from.

I was wondering if you guys would be so kind to share your recommendations in terms of garages and makes I should use for parts/oil/tyres.

1) Timing belt with water pump I suppose. Would you replace thermostat as well?
