[@Jamie_Frith]

Would I be right to assume this would be the same principles on the 2.0L CDTi model?

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

Similar

[@bobbybillionXRP]

I was thinking it might be cheaper to do the service myself, but, now seeing the tools needed im guessing it will be cheaper to go to a garage no?

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

Not really buying basic tools won’t cost much and will save you money on the long run

[@bobbybillionXRP]

@@jaysworkshopgarage Appreciate the reply Jay, yea I worked it out to around £215 for parts and tools so does work out better, Europarts have a good deal atm on a torque wrench socket set for £50

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

@@bobbybillionXRP would definitely go for it

[@freshgari7366]

Hello. Does all the oil come out when the front of the car climbs onto the platform? Thank you

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

if you want to be extra you can lower the car wait around 20mins and raise the car again with a jack obviously nat a car ramp

[@louismoran]

How much did all the stuff cost and where did you get it from mate

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

Euro Car Parts

Hello there i have the very same car as you what size socket do you use for the oil filter cap many thanks

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

[@shakeel_a4934]

Whats a better car. In terms of maintenance drive and value and overall. Astra j 1.4? Or a ford focus mk3 1.0 ecoboost

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

Personally neither I would go German all the way like Golf or something

Hi where’s the oil pressure sensor located,thanks.

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

Hi It’s usually somewhere on the block near the oil filter but if you google your car you will find the exact location for it on a diagram hopefully this helps

[@bayt2005]

Thank you mate !!

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

no problem hope it helps

Ever had your car shaking or vibrating while in idle ? In traffic or something

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

No never

[@edzis2k996]

@@jaysworkshopgarage yeah mine does that and no one can find anything.. 🤷‍♂️

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

@@edzis2k996 maybe coilpack or spark plugs

[@bearthorgreywalley1242]

Yeah agree. Coilpack maybe. Last year it would "cough" during acseleration that was not plesent. Top gasket was the problem, but it dosent sound like your issue. Just a though and sharing wisdom 😄

[@brzezik33]

Try to replace the engine mount. It's not that expensive

[@Dena403]

Do you no where the oil pressure switch is located? On 2014 model?

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

haven’t replaced one yet not sure

[@GlossaME]

Reliable engine?

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

Yes they are ok but have common thermostat housing cracking/melting issues, but once replaced they are good just needs regular service intervals and are better than none turbo vauxhall/opel in my personal experience.

[@GlossaME]

@@jaysworkshopgarage That's what I'm looking for. They seem quite good cars. Cheers

[@Pureblood002]

I've got the 1.4 non turbo snail version , does mine also need iridium plugs ?

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

No should be alright with normal ones

[@shakeel_a4934]

Why do vauxhall engines make that tapping sound when idle

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

usually timing chain slack very annoying 9/10 vauxhalls sound like this

Is the same for 1.6 turbo 200 ? Thx

[@jaysworkshopgarage]

I haven’t worked on one to be honest but compare both engines visually if they look similar you should be ok
