    Hi everyone, My Astra 1.6 CDTI (94000 miles) broke down and it is showing "Oil low pressure - stop engine" warning. I lost brakes too and could hear the engine knocking as well. Towed the car to a garage and they gave me a quote of £2250 for replacing timing chain, oil, gaskets, oil pump and...
  2. Astra J/GTC
    Hi guys Astra J 2010 1.6 Elite The under dash storage compartment keeps falling open and hitting my shins (mildly annoying!) because the catch is faulty and so I bought a replacement one from a main dealer (surprisingly cheap - £16+vat). It appears to just clip in place, but try as I might I...
