Re: Vectra A-Cavalier work in progress
Throttle cable and linkage are checked. Breather pipes too. Everything is in order. I've cleaned the idle control valve and that seem to have resolved the problem with jerking engine. Oh man, the engine is almost reborn. Engine runs like crazy. Is that even possible that with cleaning of icv I get t...

Re: Vectra A-Cavalier work in progress
Thanks. I've found them on Euro spares https://www.euspares.co.uk/parts-catalog. The car was at the mechanic shop yesterday and today. Crank sensor is changed along with 13 other parts. I don't know names of all of them in English :D front and rear braking pads, rear brake rotors, pads for a handbra...

Re: Vectra A-Cavalier work in progress
Hi guys. I have a small problem. After couple of hours of looking on web I didn't find the answer. Is there any difference in size between 4x100, and 5x110 brake discs on cavaliers. I mean is there 4x100 256mm and also 5x110 256mm. Or 5x110 are always 284mm? Maybe it is stupid question but I heard s...

Re: Vectra A-Cavalier work in progress
Yeah he was busy allight. Here in Serbia every guy who has changed a light bulb ona a car is an expert. But on the other hand finding a good auto shop is like finding unicorn. I will probably get some help to check the loom. It's too much work for me. Especially because it has an extra LPG instalati...

Re: Vectra A-Cavalier work in progress
Thank you Robsey. What can I say. When i did paperclip diagnostic, abs light was blinking, not the check engine light. So, yes, everything you've said makes a perfect sense. I must check entire loom and then sensor itself. Car was running like crap today. No power, no pull, like I'm driving 1.0 3 ci...

Re: Vectra A-Cavalier work in progress

Re: Vectra A-Cavalier work in progress
Thanks for advice. It's not about thight budget. It's more about low mileage I cover with this car. 3000-4000per year max. On this old discs I think there is enough "meat". About jerky engine. I think it is electrical problem. CaR was turbo (c20let) and swapped with c20xe. And wiring wasn'...

Re: Hello from Serbia
Yes there are knowledgeable people here. I know that. :D Thank you for your welcome. Car is going to the shop probably on sutarday, where I plan to repair a handbrake, front wheel bearings, and to adjust idle, it's little restless :). And I will probably buy those ''propeler'' rims that humbucker? h...
