Quick shot of the astra

Post by cavaliersri130 »

Took this whilst at work shes not a bad car needs a good service but I'm hoping to book her in this week for a full service time belt the lot, as she's not running spot on idles at 500 rpm and is sluggish and tries to die but she's not been looked after.

1.6 8v Astra g used to suffer with ecu faults that caused random symptoms. Probably not many around now, but worth bearing in mind as virtually every ecu that came out of the factory was duff, even the replacement stock for a few years.

the heater went cold last Thursday........
