Has anybody retro fitted illumnating sun visors? Can it be done ? My cav has a electric sunroof not sure if that helps

That's explains that then! I only ever drive it on my own and happened to open the rear door last night to put something in!

Yes pal they work fine

Evening all, both my rear kerb lights in my door cards arnt working, could it just be both bulbs have gone or are they on the same circuit / or share a fuse that could of gone ?

Checked coolant today I've only done two trips of 7 miles each way, I've checked it when it's completely cold. The antifreeze is just at the cold kalt mark. No mayo on the dipstick or around the oil cap either. And the antifreeze is a lovely orange colour no oil deposits . Maybe it's just me being p...

Doing a oil change I normally use 5w 40c semi synthetic for my V6, but I have some fully synthetic oil . Can I use fully synthetic oil or not?

No leaks and no over heating, coolant seemed a little down since I checked it last there was no oily deposits in the coolant either

My V6 has started to Loose a little coolant , could this be the head gaskets going or something else that I've not thought of?

Hi I've got some new Vauxhall stickers off e bay to replace the worn Vauxhall badges in my turbo alloy caps , question is what the best way prep the sufrace to stick the new badges on? Does anyone know

Afternoon everyone.! Has anyone done a gearbox oil change for a v6 manual gearbox? Is it the same as standard gearbox oil change?

Hi James how's the v6 doing? Do u still want the sump?

Evening ! Slight steering issue when I put the full lock on the right hand sight it makes a funny noise and feels quite heavy when bringing the steering wheel back round. I'm thinking power steering pump ! Going to flush the system first with new fluid and see. Is changing the power steeering pump a...

A superb job James. For a novice like me theses posts are fantastic , when you changed the power steering fluid is it just a case of draining the fluid from the bottle in the engine bay by undoing the hose that it attaches to or is it a little more complicated ?

If anything it sounds tapperty on acceleration especially in the low gears Lowriderdave

Cheers mucker for that ! The coolant level is fine checked that yesterday ! Probably me just being a bit weary ! Lol

Good afternoon everyone quick question when ur idling does the engine temp go up until the fan kicks in? Also at what temp does the fan kick in? The temperature was heading up to 95 plus . Then when I drove the car home it stayed at steady 90 degrees ?

Hi justslater where did u get ur grill from I would like to my grill looking like that , is it off a gsi ?

Does any know the size of the centre cap badge on a turbo alloy as I'm wanting to order some new griffin stickers for it but I am unsure of the size cheers

Hi James I have a set u can buy if u wish?

Hi everyone I've manage to acquire some boot badges second hand but they have lost all there silver colour and are black. Has anyone sprayed or painted their boot badges back to silver? Cheers

Hi everyone I'm in need of a new coolant sensor for my V6 , it's not the sensor that attached to the header cap I've spoken to someone who says he has one for sale but it's attached to actual header tank is this correct?

Hi everyone I am about to sell my private plate to someone has anyone do the transfer part before? I've downloaded the v317 transfer form and I am about to fill it in , can anyone give me any pointers

Hi everyone I'm after a single cav turbo alloy with centre cap. Not bothered about condition of alloy it's the centre cap I need . Cheers

Well fitted new battery cleaned the earths and still the same problem cranking over but not firing . So I checked one of the spark plugs and it looked fine, not black or sooty and not too dry? Pinning my hopes on the crank sensor, pretty sure it can't be the alternator as it drives fine and never cu...

Hiya pal. It's a manual , no the crank sensor hasn't been replaced but will be next week, to jump start it I've used a truck battery a normal jump starter didn't start it last night ever though it can be used a vehicles up to 3.0lt. The car has no running issues at all when running or idling full ra...
