Hi, just got a great looking 2007 Vivaro and tried to install the missing outside temp sensor, but the mirror has a proper hole but no wires for the sensor. Any ideas where the wire should end up to see if it at all works?

I have recently bought a insignia 2009 plate. I was on an A-road and went through a massive puddle. After reaching my destination. I go to turn on my car and I notice the ABS and traction control light came on, followed by the check engine light (which is pretty intermittent). The drives fine...

I had the timing chain replaced and it was full kit. Garage done the work. I noticed it sound a bit like it’s pulling back but thought it just needs to be bedded I and would be fine after a few days 100 miles. Now it’s been 375 miles still the same so checked on opcom to see any codes and comes...

Replacing a camshaft sensor as the car wouldnt start a day after buying it !. Cam sensor fault on diagnostics. Is there any hints an tips on how to change this. Seems straight forward but alot of effort!

Hi all, hopefully a quick one i've got a 2012 Meriva B, with an A17DTI engine, and i'm looking to track down a new o ring for the oil level sensor that sits in the upper oil sump. The old one has perished quite badly so even just eyeing it up against other o rings isn't proving easy. I'm after...

Hi all, I own a 2013 Astra GTC 2.0 Automatic and unfortunately while I was driving today I got a warning message saying that the engine has overheated and to stop immediately (the temp gauge was all the up at 130°C+). After waiting several hours for the engine to cool down I turned on the...

Hello everyone, was just wondering if anyone had replaced a cam position sensor. I've had no luck finding where it bolts. It's a 2007 zafira 1.6. Any help would be appreciated! This car is a nightmare, never had such problems with a simple fault before!

Hi, new to the forum. I’m having a problem with the lambda sensor on my car, this all started when my engine was about to stall at a roundabout but I caught it and dropped the clutch and it bounced back into life, next thing the EML was on. I checked the diagnostic code and it was P0136 and...

Hi all I’ve a 2012 insignia exclusiv 1796cc. The front parking sensors must be damaged. I can’t get my dealer to sort for a while as I need a courtesy car and the sensor alarm is stuck on continuously until I reach speed. It really stresses me out, is increasingly loud and upsets the children...

Hi, I was recently taking a look under my Insignia and I noticed some damage to the underside fairing. When I looked closer I noticed this senior hanging off from a broken bracket. Does anyone know what it is? The part number seems to have rubbed off.

I need a little help with diagnosing an ABS problem. At idle the light isn't on, as soon as you move off you hear the click as the sensors detect rotation, and not sure if this puts the light on, but it quickly illuminates. I have an OPCOM, no DTCs are present, can I determine if a particular...

hi guys, Having trouble with my outside temp sensor on the vivaro. Firstly I couldn't find it after my dash kept saying -- but finally found it just behind front bumper, so bought a new one and still no joy, not that I'm too bothered but it's just one of them niggly things I want to get done...

Hi Does anyone have the correct resistance readings for the above sensor? The circuit suggests there are 2 potentiometers, however what I am reading doesn't reflect what I expect a potentiometer to do. The car had had a "new" sensor fitted but if its new new or new secondhand. Across the two...
