  Front Caliper issues?? - Help please
Posted by: everson38 - 12:th-Aug-2018, 18:31:04 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC Technical - Replies (4)

Hey guys.

I had by car jacked up in the air with both calipers showing the pistons. When I pressed brakes only the passengers side piston would come out. When I original took calipers off the both retracted fine it's just that it won't come out??

The passenger side brake disc looks worse then the drivers as it is all rusty and not shiney but drivers side looks shiny. as hence why I thought something was wrong.

Anyone have any ideas to issues?

Thanks any help welcome.

  12 Plate GTC
Posted by: tribal_tiger - 11:th-Aug-2018, 12:41:41 - Forum: Lighting - Replies (4)

Hi,

I recently purchased a 12 plate GTC but have found that the headlights are terrible.

Before I found this site I had a look on a few sites, put in my number plate and used the info they said to buy new bulbs.

Well they all said to get H7 bulbs.  I've gone to fit them and they are the wrong type!  The bulbs currently fitted in mine are HIR2 LL (9012)

I've been having a look around but am having trouble finding what would be a decent replacement bulb for it to give me better vision at night.

I'm just looking for something that would be straight swap if possible.

Cheers

  Factory Options List
Posted by: 75chrisc - 8:th-Aug-2018, 18:24:49 - Forum: Request for information - Replies (10)

Hello everyone, so coming from the VW side of things my previous cars had a sticker with the Chassis Number, paint code, and three of four letter codes which listed the options the car had. This was separate from the VIN in the window and was located in the boot or on a rear wheel arch.

I am asking because (Long shot no1 coming) my Sports Tourer appears to have the glass in the rear compartment with the internal antenna for what I hope is DAB, but nothing connected.

So I was in the boot installing the space saver and inside the foam holder for the puncture repair pump was a few bits of broken glass. (Long shot no2) Could it be I might have all the gubbins behind the boot side trim and it was never reconnect?

Should I get a signal error if the DAB was not connected if I have it?


Thanks in advance.

Will try and find a VW sticker and attach later.

  DRL Bulbs Keeps Dying
Posted by: Brovakiin - 6:th-Aug-2018, 14:16:18 - Forum: Lighting - Replies (3)

Hi all,

I have been having an issue recently where my DRL's keep dying. I initially thought it was just the original bulbs but i have since replaced them in May and again in July. They don't go at the same time and i haven't noticed any other electrical issues. Does anyone know what might be causing it?

I have put i link to the bulbs that i am using, just in case that is of any use

Thanks in advance for the help!
