Upgrade cd600
Is it possible or will it be, to upgrade cd600 to new android auto system?
I was wondering if someone has firmware dump, maybe we could figure something out.

I'm willing to upgrade my cd600 to navi600 or navi950 even in near future, in case I don't figure something with navigation.
My cd600 has that beautiful big screen, and it's shame to be almost useless. I would like to use it for some sort of navigation, via phone or anything similar..

Wanting to install bluetooth and upgrade CD400
As per the title

Next stage of upgrades to my car

As I have previously mentioned I was pretty hacked off that my Sri didnt come as standard with bluetooth (go figure that my wifes 63 plate £9K Kia has it!)

I dont want to undertake the work myself as I have very little patience and even less ability !

Been pricing up for bluetooth only install, metavoice system, circa £249 plus £100 fitting 

This strikes me as pretty expensive for just having bluetooth

For an extra couple of hun

Washer jet upgrade / change?
Is there some kind of mod or upgrage to the mist washer jets on the astra j. The mist / standard ones dont seem that great and half of it goes over the car. I have adjusted many times but never seem to get it just right for driving or when at a stand still. There must be a better jet to buy or upgrade to?

ECM "Upgrade" Recall Causing Performance Issue?
Hi 

I had my 2013 Astra 2.0cdti in for service last week and was told it had a recall to "upgrade the cars software". I've since learned this is an upgrade to the ECM software.

Since the service it simply does not feel like the same car. I'm having to change down gears to get up hills I've driven everyday without the need previously for example. 

Does anyone know what is involved in this upgrade and if it could have altered my car's performance? I believe the upgrade may have something

Advice needed regarding HID upgrade for a 2010 Insignia
Hello everyone!

I am the owner of a 2010 Insignia that is factory equipped with a pair of halogen headlamps. I should also mention it has headlamp washers and manual leveling. 

I use this car daily mostly to and from work. During autumn / winter I finish work after night fall and my daily commute includes a 30 km piece of road through an unlit field that has been known to have the occasional jaywalking rabbit or other, larger, 4 hoofed creature.

I recently drove a friend's car equipped

VXR interior upgrade
Today's job was to swap over my 2015 factory 'half leather' VXR seats with some 2016 'full leather' VXR seats

I started with the easy part - the rear seat. I removed the bottom section by pulling the rear clips free and then pulling the two front clips out. I then removed one of the side trims covering the outer pivot pin and using a screwdriver lifted the seat pin out of the chassis bracket. Then the larger section simply slides out of the centre bracket, so you can then remove the smaller se

Astra J 11 Radio Upgrade
Hello guys.

New guy here.
I've been browsing this forum and I see you guys know your stuff pretty well. 
I own an Astra J 2011 ST with the stock CD 400 radio, which is basically crap and am thinking of upgrading it to some sort of Android radio or something cooler than this pile of junk.

Can you please recommend me a good solution that actually works well? That all the nobs still work? Internet is full of misleading info on that stuff and half of the time half of the buttons on
