Can you describe to us the "JUDDERS" in between gears .

 

Hi, did you get any joy with this? I have exactly the same problem by the look of it..,

 

Update part 2 :

Now it hits limp mode everytime i drive it.
Feel like smashing the thing up. Had a zafira for 5 years and never let me down :up: (still own) had this one 2 months and still cant fix the dam problem. Must be a common fault on here and someone knows the cure?
New map
Turbo and actuator checked and fine
EGR cleaned (didnt ned it but did it anyhow) and working fine
No boost pipes leaking

If is ECU is faulty its going to the auctions which is gutting as will loose even more money

Last plea for help...!!

 

Update :

Haved replaced the map sensor with new geuine vauxhall part. Seemed ok then started to do the usual "juddering" between gears or low gears and when taken over 3 thousand revs, engine light on/limp mode. Not all the time but you know its gonna sooner or later.

Gutted. 3 separate garages all said was map sensor.. EGR valve cleaned. Actuator checked and working fine. What else can it be?

One garage did say could be the ecu.

Help guys!!

Thanks.

Hi,
You say EGR cleaned, but was it stripped down and PROPERLY cleaned, the parts in the black plastic end need to be cleaned and greased, did they drill a hole in the end of the black plastic cover if not it was not cleaned properly.

 

Hi, does anyone have the part number for the map sensor? (1.3 cdti 2006 astra H model) and any links to anywhere cheaper than Vauxhall delaer who want £88 Plus vat!

Dont mind paying this but after reading varous forums on here, seems like this is a 50/50 chance it may be/not be this

Thanks guys!

 

Thanks mate, this was the one i cleaned

 

The MAP sensor is on the inlet manifold at the rear of the engine and looks like this

If you've cleaned this sensor and it cured the fault temproaraly then I'd sugest replacing it.

 

Ok had a good look for this code and possible solutions, Pre 2005 vehicles came up with boost sensor when it could also mean Baro sensor issues, post 2005 seems to be a sticking wastegate issue, check the actuator make sure it is free.

 

hmm dunno what happened there it closed???

 

Seen this code before it actually means boost pressure/barometric pressure issue, in some cases it seems to be the baro sensor. I am trying to find my data sheet on its location and test procedures. The MAF sensor can be found in the inlet air trunking, just after the airfilter box, and the MAP sensor (if fitted) can be found on the inlet manifold, 3 wires go to it red/black orange and black I think.
