I have no power to the ignition the interior lights work. And the battery is good. Is there any fuses inside the actual car?

I have the astra 1.4 sxi 2009 do you know where ecu location is on them?

Thank you for the video, it helps a lot.

Great video.

They should all be in the green like no3 but they are over

That’s a Bar Gauge already showing 0-20 bar so your cylinders are all good or make to much compression due to carbon buildup except for cyl 3 which is dead on spec?

This scenario was at the forefront of my mind when I started working on my Astra last year. I started hearing all kinds of horror stories that freaked me out. So I wouldn't go near it without buying all the safety equipment. I followed a mobile clutch mechanics advice who works under cars, SUV's and vans half a dozen times a day everyday who said, when working under any car, never ever stinge on the number of jack stands - solid ones, not these adjustable ones or bottle jacks that can fail, but proper solid ones with thick pins and sturdy welds, and don't shy away from buying jacks that are bigger and heavier for your vehicle. The more weight they can carry the better, for you. He said set them on the outer panel sills of the car, two on each side of possible as well as the inner to balance out the weight and if you're worried about scuffing the underside, get rubber mounts. Then, wheel chocks inside and outside the tyre and if to hand, spare wheels to lay underneath and if you got them, rubber blocks. Anything to act as extra support if it falls or slides. If using ramps, jam some wood or something robust into the ladders and so if it rolls forward or back it catches and stops, or gives you enough time to get out from underneath. Because my drive has a very slight gradient, not much but enough that with the hand brake off it starts to roll, every time I had her wheels up, I would push the car and see how well it held, only when I knew if my exertion never moved it, then it was balanced and wouldn't shift on its own. I did some pretty heavy work under that car, clutch work and everything, and it never moved once. Yeah it's extra cost, but who has time for hindsight when you're fighting for your life or living with crippling injuries, or 🍞? Sometimes, over time, I think complacency creeps in with some, but as many have said, it can be safe 999 times, but it only takes that once and it's lights out. Glad you're alright mate. Horrible seeing that car fall with you under it. Really nice to see how fast your neighbours rushed to your aid though. All the best.

I got the P1113 error on mine 1.6 twinport, sometimes the car turns off pushing the clouch pedal, could it be related?

These engines at really easy to rebuild granted the block and the crank the head are in good condition. I did one recently and cost me around $700.

A sweet guy.

Thanks for the video, forgetting to put on the boot at that stage is not half as bad as forgetting to put it on after you've fitted the rod back to the car, lol The most annoying part of this job is the rip off price they charge at the garage to set your tracking !!!

Hey ill donate a knife and fork can make a proper meal of it then....

These can be dine without taking anything from top end off whatsoever you just skide the new caps in when u take conrod caps off

Does this apply to the Z32SE?

Wd40 and a decent pipe wrench normally does it.

I've got a 2008 twintop roof won't go down boot won't open (someone's wired in a boot switch in the ash tray) ( very helpful) Don't get nothing if the roof buttons are pressed, did have 4 broken wires on the hinge fixed those but still nothing. 2 codes B3670-05 pump temperature sensor open or high voltage B1405-01 Ground output circuit high voltage. Anyone any ideas

Hi I fitted a new wiring loom for the twintop. But unfortunately that can't be the issue. Can you advise what else it maybe is the a module for the roof?

Believe or not this is the best engine In the world

Im going to be renoving mine soon to clean the egr channels. What gaskets etc will 8 need for the job?

Hi b132d-5a Do you have any information about the problem?

How do you remove the parcel shelf flap

hope you all fit and well now m8 seeing this video has now jogged my memory of how being extra cautious is priority working under the car as i just did my crankshaft sensor on my 1.4 astra h 2 days ago chilling seeing this now

My Opel Zafira Z16 XEP no spark to injectors

Very good video. I just bought a astra twin top and the owner said that the roof ECU needs to be changed, but he wasn't sure. yes the roof is not working and when he connects the ecu nothing works and the trunk can't be open once the ecu is plugged in. how can I check the ecu to make sure that its working or not. I really hope I can get some answers, and I hope that I will be needing to only change the winglet motor.

Was it the condenser in the end?

Nice video, I have an old Vectra B 2000 edition and it looks pretty similar but it seems to be impossible to lower that arm so the ball joint can come out. I use a long iron lever but it's not enough. The ball joint i lose and can move a cm up and down, about 1/3 of an inch.

I have a vauxhall astra h 1.4 but the engine is misfiring,I changed the plugs coilpack but its still misfiring fault codes are po300 po303 po304 don't know how to test injectors

The Z18XE is much tougher

Thank you, just what I needed re thet ECU

Hi, where do you rotate engine ?,both wheels up and from the tire nut?

I have a problem with mine. The boot is locked and I cant open. I took it to the garage, and they were able to open using the diagnostic machines. However, they couldn't fix it. Do you have any ideas?

Just came across this, scary stuff mate! Watching that clip of the car falling omg ! Cant even begin to imagine how it must be for yourself. I work on my own car and always aim for safety like yourself but it always a massive risk, I have about 4 jacks, 4 axle stands, wheel chocks plus 2 very heavy thick solid wood blocks screwed and bolted together which I also place under the car just in case. I also give the car a good shake just to make sure before I get under the thing😬 Glad your ok mate, stay safe !

Do you have the full unedited videos, so someone with little experience can actually learn from them ?

Do you know which oil uses the hydraulic pump of the roof engine?

My back door 🚪 don't close well why ?

I have a question, I want to replace the potentiometer, do I have to replace it from below or can I also do it from above?

Probably started it's life on a rental fleet.

can't find that gasket anywhere on the internet, do you have any idea where to find a one?

Biggest fear is to go under a car jacked up for this reason, glad you ok take care

Hi did you manage to find out how to remove the brake booster clip that broke at 10:26 i can see that being my first major set back..cant find anything online about it aswell

Hi after you take the 6 bolts off the upper manifold, you say their is another, 5 6 or even 8 bolts underneath,did you mean 8 bolts on the lower manifold from the part 2 video?

Similar thing happened to me with a Volvo V70 a few years ago. I had jacked the rear up and had axle stands on both sides. I had just bent down to grab something and on the way up the car fell towards me pinning me between my garden wall and the rear of the car. I could not take in a full breath and started to pass out. There was nobody around but luckily my son had heard a noise from the bathroom. I don’t remember much after being pinned but a neighbour from two doors away came in and literally jacked the car off me sideways from the wall and the car! I was really sore for about 6 weeks and had one cracked rib. It turned out that even though the car was secure with the axle stands, the concrete on my drive had actually gave way slightly and caused it to shift! I dread to think if it had gone when I had just bent down. It would’ve been lights out! I still have bad dreams about it. My neighbour who had saved my life was suffering himself from lung cancer at the time. When the ambulance arrived they gave him oxygen first and he was in such a state they thought it was him that had been trapped! Poor guy died 2 years ago but I’ll never forget how he saved me that day.

great vid thanks a million . i have a 2008 previous owner has been at it and completely ballsed it up . i live in ireland can anyone give me advice where to get parts from . they do not have a clue here

Does anyone know,does Z16LER parts fits on Z16XEP?

Is it necessary to remove valve cover ?

you don't have to take off the entire front bumper. you only need to disassemble the grill at the top and bottom. You can then remove the condenser from the top. saves a lot of work 👍

What could I have done wrong ? The car takes all gears without a clutch but no the car doesn’t move

Gosh , thats so scary ,was their any damage to the vectra when it dropped off the stands?

incase its not been said yet theres a flat blade screwdriver slot that you can adjust to match the opposite side just adjust to match and jobs a good 1
