Mk3 Cavalier Owners Club | Vauxhall Cavalier Dot Com

It started back in June so i put two bottles of radweld in it and it held untill now. Got a second hand one earlier from a 1.6 its basically the same length but not as deep by two inches. Pipes r the same one at each side so ill try it and see, came with a fan which is good because the 2.0 fan is to...

Would a rad from a 1.6 cav work ok in my Sri? Been told its the same length etc but slightly thinner. Just need sumthing to keep me going until i can afford a new one

Na didn't go to Vauxhall, to pricey! I got a genuine one from fintona autospares £35. its a seimens one

Make sure its genuine, i bought 3 aftermarket crank shaft sensors last year and my cav wouldn't start! I didn't think lmf ones were genuine i can remember ringing them and the fella said. they werent

Fully lower the window, unscrew the 2 nuts, release 2 lower retaining clips, manipulate exterior handle through outside of door and disconnect operating rods. (according to Haynes)

Think ill maybe let it sit all day next time i do it, even with paste the whole way around it it still leaks mainly at the coil pack side. I think these cavs are too long new just!

I put it the whole way around the head, seems to be fine for a wile then leaks again. Ill try it once more then go for a genuine one

X20xev its not a genuine gasket but it fits like a glove, never leaked before. Pipes are all clear

Ive put gasket paste around the cylinder head to cure the usual leaks but it still leaks from right hand side as in the two d shapes. Its leaking from between the gasket and cover, the head to gasket is fine. Any tips on this r could cover be warped

The thing is the fan always came on at 94ish degrees but since i put a thermostat in its went to 100 degrees and never came on, maybe the problem lies elsewhere. Ran live feed from batt and fan kicks in so it isn't that at fault

Speed of it wouldn't annoy me, ive only ever heard it at one speed anyway tbh. Would joining the two wires together be all i need to do to bypass it?

Mines on the x20xev. Maybe i can get one second hand. Suppose there's no way of bypassing it? Don't want my engine overheating!

Could sumone tell me the name of the white rectangular shape thing that's screwed to the radiator fan with one ten mill nut. There's a wire screwed in at both ends. My fans stopped workin and this we thing appears to be broke

thats what i was thinking myself so i ended up returning it. just waiting now on correct item

Ift its the same number as ur original clocks it will be fine, not to sure about a different number. Think there slightly different. Sumone a bit smarter will probly let u no soon!

exact same thing happened mine a few months back. turned out to be a fuse

just received a nice new master cylinder from good old ebay, unfortunately on closer inspection it has got 4 holes for the brake pipes instead of 2 which i need! must be for non abs which wasnt stated in the add. my question is would the master cylinder still work if i blanked the 2 extra holes or w...

Is it worth wile changin to a 100 amp alternator and bigger battery to get rid of battery light wen usin to many things at once like heated seats etc?

Proper cav reiger one is the only one that looks right tbh. (maybe in biast)

Yip x20xev seems to be the colder the engine the better it goes which is why im thinkin its the lambda!

ive cleaned the icv out with petrol, it wasnt even dirty to begin with. also put timing belt kit on and set the tensioner in the correct place. getting it plugged in 2morro mornin so hopefully find out for sure then

it actually idled slightly higher for a week when i put it back on, my trip comp was saying 0.5 gallons per hour aswell instead of 0.4. then it just went back to normal after that. im not convinced that my lambda's in top condition so i think ill get it plugged in instead of buying sensors to try an...

light stays off but i still have the symptoms of it not running right, however it did seem to go nomal for half an hour when i took the tps off and sprayed engine cleaner inside it. there doesnt seem to be much to the tps tho for it to go wrong, it just seems to turn left and right!

aye im using the standard old type connector. all looks well but ill have a good look at the wires just to make sure. i was having trouble with my lambda aswell so i bought a second hand one which seems to be working but im not 100% sure. maybe time 2 get plugged into a snap on reader 2 know for sure

Replaced crank shaft sensor today with a new genuine one. Car still feels a bit jerky, cam sensor is new as well. No eml on but code 92 is stored in ecu even after disconnecting battery over night. All wiring seems gud to cam sensor, should the sensor sit exactly straight in the middle of the two pu...
