Wiring up my dashcam. Take power from...?
Hi all,

So I wanted a dashcam for a long time now, but I never wanted it to be in my sight and block my sight even more (the Astra already has pour visibility). But I got a dashcam for free which I modified so the camera can be separated from the little screen and housing.

I want to attach the camera itself directly over my automatic high beam assist camera (which I don't use because it's not so good). There it has a perfect view of the road ahead.
The screen itself will pop out behind/ne

Service power steering warning light.
Hi

My car has this warning come on and the steering goes very heavy and it's pretty dangerous when it happens whilst driving.

It will then turn off and then not come on again for a few days.

Has anyone had an issue with this before? I've had a brand new steering rack put in and checked the battery and alternator which are both fine.

Thanks.

Astra J 1.7 81kw engine power
Hi, I have an Astra J, 1.7 diesel - 81kw from 2010 and I have a big problem for more than a year. When the engine is at normal temperature (90 degrees) when I drive constant between 1800-2100 RPM the whole car shuddered. When the engine is cold there is no problem.

I cleaned the EGR (only EGR is clean now, not the whole admission system), I changed it with a second one and also changed it with a new one and the problem persists. If I unplug the EGR cable, the problem doesn't appear. On the te

1.6 cdti power loss
Hi Folks, I've recently bought a 2014 astra 1.6cdti sports tourer techline which is giving me no end of trouble...

When I collected the car from Arnold Clark I didnt think anything of the "Service Vehicle soon" message when putting the key in the ignition as I'd mistakenly assumed that the service warning hadn't been reset following the pre-sale service. Turns out, as I found out the next day, that the DPF had issues as when turned on ignition to set up my phone with the headunit, the dispaly

Power loss and stop start not working
Hey guys

I have a 62 plate astra J 2.0 CDTI.

I have noticed a few things and wondering of could shed some light on things to check.

GTC near side power fold door mirror
Looking for a near side (passenger) power fold door mirror. Ideally in white but guessing I can swap the current cover over if need be (?)

Current situation is I have just purchased a car only to discover that a 5 door power fold mirror has been fitted at some point in the cars history. Almost get away with it but the finish is matt and not gloss and it's taller so goes over the chrome strip! Not acceptable!!!

Convert non power fold door mirrors
I have a power fold mirror from 5 door Astra J fitted to my GTC and although it functions fine it doesn't fit very well! I was wondering can I get a standard non power fold mirror and use the internals of my current mirror to convert it to power fold!? Sounds complicated, I'm guessing not???

Retrofit Rear Power point 5 door Astra J
Has anyone retrofitted a 12v power point to a 5 door Astra J which has an armrest? There is no cable for it and nothing tucked away. I have had a good look round the front power point.
