So, the problem is somewhat elusive, and I'm running out local tips and help. My Astra G, engine code Z16XE, has a problem with running smoothly. There are no engine codes given. There's no noticable bad idling, just that tiny bit of fluctuation when idling, +-20rpm. When I rev up to between...

Hey people. Recently my 1.8 insignia has started to idle rough only on a cold start (needle on rpm gauge twitches) with a rhythmic sound following the pulsing from the engine. Also after the engine has been running a few seconds the engine revs drop only for a second then raise again and the...

Hi there, I've had a vivaro for around 4 months now and it's been nothing but trouble; Injectors, engine mount, alternator and now it won't start. The engine turns over, kicks in but then the revs drop immediately. After some research I've looked at the fuel filter (seems fine) the manual...

Hi, I have some issue with my old Meriva. It's semi-auto, if that matters. I've noticed this since weather got warmer. So, in a nut-shell, the car won't start if: - it's sunny (hot?!) outside OR - the engine is hot (car ran before, and then trying to restart the engine) The engine starts to...
