I'm thinking of are Blue Forge coolant and boost hoses

Hi guys, not sure if a ball joint is playing up.
Steering doesn't feel very secure (might be my mind tho!!) and going over speed bumps makes a thud sound.
Cars in for service tomorrow for a 2nd service which they class as a major service so wondered if they check joints and if found to be knackered will replace.

Hi all,

Just noticed that some bolts holding this flap to the body of the car have come loose and refuse to go back in! Must have snapped or something [PENSIVE FACE] anyone know how I can go about fixing this on the fly? Was thinking double sided sticky pads... Don't want it to fall off while driving!

I have a 2012 Sri 1.6T, It doesn't happen all the time but regularly enough to bother me. What's happening is when I'm.accelerating the engine is chugging, it's not turning off. no matter what gear I'm in or how hard I'm accelerating it will still happen.

When I unscrew the cap to the coolant tank there's a black cap or filter there that won't come out, coolant won't seep through it either so I can't put any in.

Hi,

Quick question - Should a 2013 Astra GTC 1.6t petrol have a plastic under tray? I was filling the screen wash in my car and suddenly realised I could see the ground beneath my engine.

I can't remember my last car not to have one.

Hi Folks

I have a 2015 GTC 2.0 diesel auto. I noticed that water collects in the gap between the bottom of the rear window and the boot.
So when I open the boot after rain, quite a lot of water flows back out of here. Its not leaking into the car or anything like that, but im thinking it's eventually going to rust in there if water is pooling in there.

Also tried parking on a level surface to see if it made any difference, but water still pools in the gap.


Anyone else noticed this, o

Recently had a minor problem with me 2015 GTC

Plastic under carriage/skid pan(maybe?) had drooped down. Positioned under the engine (See pics)


The two passenger side screws have come loose, and by the pics they are still in the plastics

I've got under the car and attempted to screw them back in but they only go half a turn, and with a bang of my fist on the plastic they pop out again. So I'm assuming its the thread that's gone?

Whats my best play here. New screws? If someone could
