  CD400 usb and aux not responding
Posted by: ste88 - 21:st-Aug-2021, 02:50:13 - Forum: ICE - Replies (6)

Hello guys, I recently bought this car, I had a previous Astra J GTC and I could listen to my music through aux just fine. On this one neither of usb and aux are working, I plug my cable but when I press Aux nothing happens, Bluetooth works just with calls. What should I do?


  Uneven idle and hunting on initial start up
Posted by: Jpbroad1970 - 20:th-Aug-2021, 20:48:20 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (2)

Hi

I'm posting this video incase anyone can help. I'm at my whitsend with this car 2011 cdti manual A20DTH. Argh well can't upload video, but when I start the car from cold any time of day or outside temperature it  hunts like a misfire, once it's warm it's as smooth as anything, there is also a faint whiff of diesel, like unburned, sweetish smell when it first starts.

Any ideas?

I have some ideas just want to know if the match any others.

I have cleaned throttle body, egr, new map sensor and a new intercooler pipe that was split.

No power loss no fault codes on opcom or MDI on gds2

  Genuine GM MDI
Posted by: livo - 20:th-Aug-2021, 18:14:57 - Forum: What's it worth - No Replies

Thinking of selling my genuine gm mdi I got it to program my navi950 but ended up send it to Jpbroad1970 for him to do it so I no longer need it, not sure what would be an expectable price for it, it comes with power supply, usb cable, network cable and wifi card.

  Induction kit
Posted by: carlosfootball - 19:th-Aug-2021, 16:45:57 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - No Replies

New member here, First post!

So why is it that the only induction kits I can find is a K&N Typhoon (£300!) and some Badass one (£200 but never heard of them so dubious)?

Is it due to needing to have somewhere to put the sensor?

What are your guys opinions on the Typhoon?

I have a 2012 Astra J 1.4T Sri VX line

Regards


  Lowering springs identify front rear
Posted by: martinpe68 - 15:th-Aug-2021, 15:15:44 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (1)

COBRA lowering springs 30/30 mm for Astra Sri GTC 2012 2.0 CDTI
Which are front and which are rear?
The long springs have VA stamped on them and shorter springs have HA stamped on.

Which way up do they go? Is the writing always reading in the normal direction or it can soemtimes be upside down? 


  2.0 CDTi Auto Gearbox Oil Change
Posted by: Dennis S - 13:th-Aug-2021, 14:29:25 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - No Replies

Just a quick note to say that last week I had my auto transmission oil changed on my 2.0 CDTi Astra at 90,000 miles. I've had the car 5 years.
Although the car was driving ok with no real problems I had wondered if a transmission oil change would improve it.
Got the transmission oil changed at the local Vauxhall dealers, cost me just over £80.
Noticed an immediate improvement in the way the car drives. It changes up quicker, holds onto a higher gear for longer before changing down. Feels like it's making better use of the engine's torque. Smoother altogether, should have got it done years ago.
Would recommend it to anyone who might be considering getting it done.


  navi950 programming
Posted by: livo - 13:th-Aug-2021, 11:01:37 - Forum: Retrofit Research - Replies (2)

Hi, Can anyone tell me if I can use normal programming via sps or if I need a vci code to reprogram a navi950 from Mokka controls to Astra controls? & can I add review camera and dab+ to it via normal programming or does this also need a vci code? I was hoping to send it to Rusty for this to be done but he is a busy man and i am wanting to get this done asap. I have a genuine Mdi to do the programming & once done I will no longer need it so can pass it on for a very reasonable cost to anyone who is willing to help me out with info on the programming. Thanks


  DPF problems almost new
Posted by: Caddylac - 11:th-Aug-2021, 21:52:46 - Forum: Vauxhall General - Replies (3)

Hello all, recently I got some error messages on my 1.3 Astra but before I go to a specialist I would like to see if is something that I can do by myself


So, a couple of days ago I got "Service Vehicle Soon" message before starting the engine. I kinda think that the problem might be related with the DPF since in the last 3 weeks I've used the car only for a couple of miles to reach my work place. I've moved very close to work but since I don't have a parking permit yet, I need to move my car from the place I live during the day 

Yesterday I had to do some work 100 miles away from work and I decided to get my car in order to clean the DPF, after 20 miles I got the message, "DPF Cleaning, Continue Driving", after another 20/30 miles the message change to "DPF is Full, Continued Driving Mandatory. I was on the highway, so I continued for another 60 miles until I've reach my destination but nothing, the message didn't go away. On my way back, same thing, 100 miles but no cleaning. The message comes on as soon I turn on the keys, also "Service Vehicle Soon"

The filter is brand new, only 3000 miles made so far...

Arrived home, I've connected the computer and I got this error messages:

P2458-57 Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)  Regeneration Time - <Unknown status byte>
P2453-56 Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Differential Pressure Sensor Circuit - Too Many Transitions
P0192-5A Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Low Voltage - Not Plausible

Is there anything I can do by myself before hearing an expert?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
