Vauxhall /Opel Ecotec engine (sounds like diesel engine,FIX!!)

[@agnespanuska1826]

That was very informative. Now I will know what to do with my cars engine.

[@mirola73]

1 hour short distance ? We're pretty much screwed in N. Ireland then ! Almost EVERY trip is less than 1 hour.

[@balintfirle2818]

My z14xep have a different sound at 1950-2050 revs, and nowhere else (new oil, timing) any idea what can it be?

[@jeroenrodenboog3815]

Got the exact same problem on Z18XE. This sound stays when accelerating. Saab with 1.8i ecotec engine at the garage now..

[@SinoxoloDyantyi-fl6ej]

Is that sound can make angen nok?

[@Sandolatifa]

To me the , the mechanic is explaining the sound, but there is no clarification on how to solve this problem...he is talking about the valves that we cant even see them, there is no demonstration in how to resolve this problem...can we see the practical part...and here the motor after when its Fixed

[@lindenarends7021]

Hi. What is the name of the plastic chain that moves and is causing the sound?

[@Jozavenue]

Hi, it's an intake air valve linkage.

[@realonepx9885]

My Vectra Z18XE 90kw sounds similar... When its engine cold its louder when engine gets warm I can still hear it but its not that loud... could be the same thing ? what is this engine on the video ?

[@Jozavenue]

1.4

[@Jozavenue]

Could be chain

[@LeeBasil-ks4ur]

Hi I have an astra j 1.6 2011 giving a tapping noise but only once it warms up could it be hydraulic lifters of swirl flaps

[@Jozavenue]

Trimming chain

[@dazzahaywood3298]

Mine swirl flaps gonna take the vacuum pipe off plug it with a screw.

[@Jozavenue]

@@dazzahaywood3298 wouldn't recommend that fix.

[@dazzahaywood3298]

@Jozavenue what would it do i ain't that good but seen a video the other day is that not wise to do then.

[@jaystheone1]

Any one have info on part numbers?

[@Professional_Youtube_Commenter]

breh, you shoud do the ork and show as the after sound.

[@tonysoprano9370]

This is happening to my Astra and I hate it. I’m contemplating changing the intake manifold completely

[@Jozavenue]

New one will cost arm and a leg used one will be the same

[@AimanHasiane-ux5hr]

Hello can you tell me where is filter fuel on this car...?? Thx

[@431815892]

some corsa d 1.2 dont have them

[@Jozavenue]

under the car on one side close to rear tire.

[@mersincaushaj9456]

ihave this problem in astra h z16xer

[@Jozavenue]

That would be timing chain

[@ThomasMoore.1]

​@@Jozavenue Z16xer has a belt

[@kieranhollings5262]

if i get a new inlet manifold will this fix the issue?

[@Jozavenue]

yes

[@abdurrahmanbenrezzouk6485]

would it be fine to leave it and not fix this

[@Jozavenue]

No

[@pacman7959]

​@@Jozavenue What happens if you leave it

[@georgesvgg7456]

I have an over 30y old Opel Ascona 1.3S carburetter engine oldtimer with similar ticking, is this also on these old motors ?

[@Jozavenue]

No just the newer ones.

[@aftertheendtimes]

So if i understand i correct, it is flaps in the intake that makes it sounds like a diesel,..and if one clean the intake and valves it makws the ticking disapear,..my agila 1.2 ecotech sounds just like yours though it have just 118000km on it,...it drives me crazy with that diesel sound😄😆 thanks a ton for shareing ❤🙏

[@itswais77]

4:42 warra lie they aren’t bulletproof at all

[@Jozavenue]

Change your oil every 10000km only with 5w30

[@arunm7175]

I have Opel Astra H caravan 2010 1.6 gasoline and it has 173k km on it, all I did is oil change (Mobil 5w30) and wheel bearing once changed and recently added injectors cleaner to the fuel and it runs like butter, 140km at 4000 rpm on the German Autobahn and sometimes with AC on

[@happynkosinathi3295]

my is doing the same and broken so it means they have same problem

[@Jozavenue]

Get it fixed

[@happynkosinathi3295]

I must change the whole manifold?

[@Jozavenue]

You could only buy factory I suggest getting it fixed​@@happynkosinathi3295
