i have used carb cleaner on air flow meters before

just dont drench it and spray it about 5 inches away as u dont want too much force going into it

imo if they fail after using carb cleaner then they are on there way out anyway

Hey mike, you have the parts number list on the vec c? need a couple of numbers for brakes.

Cheers, Plus still not had time to do my air meter yet. lol

Disk and pad kit £68+vat at the dealer mate. Autovaux do a disk and pad kit also, think its something like £55. The AV kits are either Pagid or Mintex.

Did you manage to fix this in the end? Mine does this but only occasionally in the cold, I tend to ignore it.

No not as of yet, not even considering looking at it in this weather. seems like if a tough one as theres a few people with the same problems.

hi, i had the same problem with my 2.2 astra coupe.. when engine was slightly reved it kept on cutting out like its stalling.. ended up being the airmass sensor (mass air sensor).. there was no management light on or anythin like that... just kept cutting out..as if stalling. i took it off and cleaned it wiv abit of alcohol and a cotton bud.. well a few cotton buds.. seemed to do the trick.. which was lucky as otherwise i would have had 2 buy a new one. i'v been told they aint 2 expensive though. hope this helps
