Astra Diesel fuel injection cutting out

My mechanic says it seems to be the cam and crank sensors not synching (I think I got that detail correct), now waiting for replacements. No error codes from ECU. he says there is no actual fuel pump in this model and fuel filter has now been replaced.
If that doesn't work, any suggestions?
Fuses?

Thanks for any advice / experience

Afternoon all!
As the new boy please be gentle with me. :)
Got a 57 reg Vivaro & the damned door open light on the dash does not work. Bit of a nuiciance really!
All the switches seem to work as the interior lights come on but nothing to show if the back doors are open when you drive off.
Now, i am just assuming that there should be a light.....if not i can soon Jury rig something up!
Any ideas, comments, suggestions?

(SOLVED) Airbag warning light :(

So today i changed the steering wheel in my 1.6 Zafira Club, disconnected the battery before i started removing anything, got it all put back together and found that despite my best efforts i have an airbag warning light, does this definitely mean i have an airbag fault or is it something else gone wrong somewhere, if it's just the light and no actual problem how do i make the light go off? how would i tell if there is a genuine fault?

TIA

Corsa on a 57 plate, sputtered home and would not start again. A dodgy mechanic replaced the ECU and replaced battery, still nothing. The engine doesn't crank, all electrics seem to be fine including central locking. I purchased opcom and I have detailed the fault codes below. Could someone please assist me in correcting these codes, perhaps a step by step of what I have to do to get the car running again.

Hello all,

Just had the spanner through the roof light come on and the car went into limp mode.

I tried the pedal trick but didn't get any flashing lights, only a message ECN 112562. A bit of Googling shows this on other forums and related to throttle position sensor and/or the throttle body.

Before I have to go to a garage tomorrow, any experience or advice on this one please?

Missed it the first time, but I'm also getting ECN 242f75 which seems to relate to the DPF regen cycle . In...

Afternoon,

New to the forum, so Hi all.

I bought a 2009 insignia in November which has been running fine and still is, but it has developed a random/intermittent coolant leak.

I noticed it and had a google, figured it was the EGR cooler, so rang my local Opel Dealer - had it in stock , would do it the following afternoon which was ideal as I was heading away on holiday the day after that. only reason i went to the dealer not my local indie was i figured they have the part in stock so be...

Hi, I have a Zafira A and I had some issues with my key fob opening the door via the remote. Everyday I have to reprogram the remote inserting in the car and turning on the ignition and pressing a key, it will work for an hour or two and then I had to reprogram it again. So, I switched to another key fob(I have 2 key fob with remote and another one without remote) and it seems that works, then started with the same issue after around 1 month.

Obviously, I replaced the CR2032 battery in...

I have been offered some H7, H1 and H4 LED headlight conversion kits for a good price. They look to be very good quality and have the cooling fans built into the bulbs, unlike some of the cheaper kits available.

Has anyone had any experience of aftermarket LED headlight kits?

Any ideas?

Ok, so when i bought my Zafira it had what i think could be the original wiper arm but the little plastic tabs that held the blade in place were snapping away with age, so i bought a new one off ebay and it snapped where the spring sits in the joint, got a new one again, different seller and different manufacturer and same thing has happened again when i went through the car wash tonight so stuck without one for the time being, does anyone know of a specifically good manufacturer or any way...
