The other day driving up a hill the car with a spanner lit up on my dashboard... I done the pedal test and got the following codes
21911 & 218217. The car still seems to run fine and isn't in limp mode.
I can't find any information on the first code but I believe the 2nd one is for a coolant temperature sensor being faulty.
has anyone else experienced this and what was done to rectify it?
I've had the battery out to have a look and there's a sensor plugged into what I think is the thermostat, which is on the gearbox side of the engine block, it doesn't have a nut to remove it so I think to change it I would need to replace the whole thermostat... (probably costly).
I've found another sensor on the timing belt side of the radiator which has a nut, so I think that would just be a case of removing with a spanner.
The car is a 2009 astra sport hatch 1.6 Z16XER engine (115) with 43k miles
Any help would be much appreciated I'm hoping to do the work myself
