ASTRA J 1.4 PETROL ( NON TURBO )
Hi all I have a 2010 Astra j 1.4 petrol ( non turbo ) which has just started playing up. Whilst driving warning lights come on the dash as can be seen in the first image, the speedo and the odometer stop working. This will then clear then start again. Then sometimes the power steering stops working and the lights on the dash are as in image 2. This can then clear and the cycle repeats itself. This is happening more frequently but does not happen all the time :s. Through googling this the only th

TURBO FAILURE, something else wrong
I'm in rather desperate need of ideas! Just before Xmas on a 45-mile return trip, I started to hear the turbo. It wasn't loud, but clearly there unlike normal.

Turbo failure common?
Hello,

I had my car at service and they told me I had to change my turbo. Is this a common problem? 

The fault codes was P0299 and P003A. 

Is there any knows issues with the turbo on this car? It has only gone 75000 km / 46000 miles

Opel astra J, 2010, 1.3 CDTI. 

Kind regards
