  Corsa Models to Avoid
Posted by: sheppy1 - 13:th-Aug-2015, 17:14:38 - Forum: General Chat - Replies (15)

Hey Guys! 

Posting this in general chat as it's not related to Astra's...

So a friend of mine is looking to buy a 2nd hand Corsa D and he is wondering if there are any specific models which should be avoided...or even specific engine types for that matter.

Cheers


  Next purchase!

Keys!

I hate manky looking car keys. I don't know why but I always associate it with unkempt cars.

Mine, I would consider borderline manky. How can I solve the lack of chrome on my flip button? I'm thinking chrome spray..?

I don't want to replace it if I can help it as it'll need to be reprogrammed

  Xbox - HDMI input
Posted by: bhalay207 - 3:rd-Aug-2015, 15:10:27 - Forum: General Chat - Replies (3)

So, after 5 years my younger brother has finally decided to give me my xbox360 back.

The problem I have is that my plasma is an older model still going strong. It only has two HDMI inputs.

In input 1 I have my Sky box. In input 2 I have my Chromecast.

I purchased a HDMI splitter off eBay which I put the xbox (because it's off and shouldn't be giving a signal) and the Chromecast, however the image was flickering.

I put it in input 1 with the Sky box but the screen was black.

Any further ideas as to what I can do? I don't particularly want to revert to the component input and can't be bothered to keep swapping cables over in the back.

Got a few questions regarding this.

Do you have to inform the dvla of colour change?

How easy is it to remove the rear spoiler on the vxr?

  facelift vs pre lights
Posted by: Bloopeta - 2:nd-Aug-2015, 17:51:29 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (7)

Hi, I have recently bought a 2012 facelift 1.7cdti, I bought it with front end damage, and am currently sourcing parts for the repair.

Is there any difference between post and pre facelift headlights? I thought it was just the front bumper that differed however now Ive started looking I suspect the headlights may be different in some way?

Problem I have is I dont have the old headlights for reference as theyre in a million pieces

Any help grately appreciated


  Tyre Pump
Posted by: sheppy1 - 1:st-Aug-2015, 23:32:12 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (11)

Hey Guys [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

Just a quick one here... Not really important or related to anything I'm doing but wanted to know of the tyre pumps that you guys have with your cars are built into the car (in the boot somewhere) or are separate and you need to plug them into the cig lighter?

Reason I ask is that we had to use one tonight on my old Corsa D and I found out that it's built into the boot side wall! You pop a cover off and run a long pipe from the boot to the tyre and then turn the engine on and it powers on!

With my astra it's all separate and I have to run a power cable from the cig lighter. Was wondering if this is still the case on the higher trim levels and older models?

Thanks
