HOW TO DIY replacement of Hydraulic lifters on Vauxhall corsa D

[@jesperholmgaard1808]

Great video - i have seen a lot of KZbin diy video for my precious car, this is one is very nicely done. Gives me confidence to diy. My 1.4 2016 is ticking like mad anybody knows if this is bad for other thing than you're hearing :)

[@HOWTODIYwithEddy]

Thanks

I just removed the head to do a valve grind on z14xep engine. The lifters expanded out as they should. But some refuse to be pushed back by the valve spring force to the correct adjusted position leaving the valve off the seat and no compression. I assume it is because the lifters are old and sludge gets jammed in them.

[@HOWTODIYwithEddy]

Yes it's probable the case

[@rinusstrijker9384]

i made a special tool for the lifters. its like a hook that fits under the head. it was easy te made.

[@user-sm7bs7ll5z]

Do you say a tool that fits under the head of the follower ?

[@andyridley2236]

[@markmeck1]

[@cobuscarpenter1278]

With patience

Don't give up on the video's they're great

[@evieemaya88]

Another great video. I see this is the Corsa D from your timing chain replacement video. What happened after that made you need to change the lifters also?

[@HOWTODIYwithEddy]

The lifters were too noisy look like a diesel engine, so i decided to change it, now is quite like it should.

[@Manuel-yt1py]

Another great video. I've subscribed.

[@TheFuneralDirector]

I was just about to say that lol

[@learneverythingwithme9560]

My engine has ticking noise, if I do this is it going to remove the ticking noise?

[@HOWTODIYwithEddy]

yes, it should go away with new lifters

[@jesusyepes1344]

Nice video, where could I buy the rocker arms and lifters for corsa 1.6? cheers

[@HOWTODIYwithEddy]

Car parts shop like (general traffic, euro car parts, gsf etc)

[@marinvremes5702]

Very informative video, thanks very much 👍. One question if I may. Before refitting the tappets, did you had them decompressed?

[@HOWTODIYwithEddy]

I had them lubrificated in oil for a while before refitting them, nothing else was done.

[@marinvremes5702]

@@HOWTODIYwithEddy thank you

[@kylebennett8554]

Did you replace the lifters because it was making a loud tapping noise when the car was in idle ?

[@HOWTODIYwithEddy]

Yes

[@kylebennett8554]

@@HOWTODIYwithEddy I haven’t got the biggest mechanical knowledge but do you recon I could do this myself ?

[@eduardopinheiro644]

@Kyle Bennett you need to feel confident in doing it, you need to have minimal knowledge 👍

[@cctvworldwideful]

Brilliant

Hi when you did the hydraulic lifters did you replace the chain aswel only asking for I’ve a corsa e 16 plate and I’ve only done 27thousand plus miles and the other day my car started ticking over quite loud specially when I put my foot down then when I slowed down it was quit I’ve had oil change don’t on Friday it was fine then once it warmed up after half hour of going home started again but not as loud my garage sed it will be fine now obviously not don’t fancy going to a Vauxhall garage as they will bum rape me so don’t no were to start ask my garage to change my hydraulic lifters first and see what happens then my chain after but can’t see my chain naffed at 27 thousand plus miles

[@HOWTODIYwithEddy]

no, with that millage you don't need to change the chain, unless is any rattling noise from it, also is strange with that millage already lifters issues, but i don't know

[@chrisfen6831]

Hi how much where the tappets ? And did it fix issue

[@HOWTODIYwithEddy]

It cost me at the time just over 10 each, and yes it did resolve the issue, but need to make sure the oil pump is working otherwise if no oil reach the tappets the issue remain

[@okhascorpio]

what are the symptoms of bad lifters on this car??

[@loaibitar6196]

We want to hear its sound after installing new lifters !!

[@HOWTODIYwithEddy]

well, not at this time as the car is not with me anymore, but when i do another one i will get his sound before and after.

[@daniellaidlaw9386]

Is there any way you’d be able to help me diagnose a fault somehow?

Hi - How long should this job take?

[@eduardopinheiro644]

Between take apart and put all back together is a days work, 6/7 hours is the same as doing the timing chain
