So I have driven it for 2 weeks and used a tank of fuel and done about 250 - 300 miles and the computer is telling me I am getting 27.5 mpg which I think is rather low. Now I do 20 mins to work in the morning 10 mins above 40 and 10 mins start s

I own a 2012 Astra j and I have had a lot of problems recently with the car locking itself when the drivers door is moved. It has mainly been an intermittent problem, but now it happens 90% of the time I open the door. It does not matter if the car is: Running, Ignition on, or being unlocked; but when the drivers door is opened, the car will lock and unlock itself multiple times.

Hi, another newbie to the forum!!  I have a Astra J 1.6 CDTI Sports Tourer 2014 bought second hand with 28K on clock. Now had it for several months and am very pleased with it.  It is the first diesel engined car I've had (but about the 6th Astra).

Has anyone had problems with this engine?  I understand it has been continued in the K so I assume its not too bad!!

Cheers

Had this problem for a while , it’s the 1.7 110 sports tourer .
Basically the revs move up and down at idle and vibrates , it’s like a weird heart beat but feels like it’s about to stall every time it drops
Anybody know why it does it , had full service couple month back but done it for ages
Many thanks
