Thats it KevinH lots of laughs, holidays, trips, shows coming back with POD burn.

Well after been a member on here years lots of years and owned my 2.2 Astra nearly 16 years a couple of weeks ago i px'd it in. It was a sad sad day but time for a change :(, it did pain me what i got for her but just time for a change. This is pretty much how she looked when i dropped it off...

Has anyone fitted these before ? evocarlos maybe? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nighteye-Car-72W-9000LM-H7-LED-Conversion-Headlight-KIT-6500K-Bulbs-Xenon-White/152930141678#vi-ilComp

Afternoon, Just wondered what people are running with upgraded setups and whats the law with aftermarket HID / LED are the not MOT friendly? Was looking at upgrading now the dark nights are coming. Can anyone recommend a full kit with correct fittings for Astra G ?

I had similar issue with mine less than few weeks ago. Swapped Crank sensor / plugs / Coolant temp sensor, then the issues proceeded in the end i got a good fuel rail with a FPR in it and a recon Starter motor, once these have been swapped I have not had a warm starting issue. Might be worth...

KevinH that's great I will have a look at LUK kit part number the cheapest I could find was £190. Hence looking at C20LET ones.

Thanks for everyone's help. After the issue seemingly getting worse today I have picked the car back up after sourcing a good fuel rail, with injectors and fpr and a recon starter motor. Done multiple warm tests and all seems good so far. The starter motor didn't look in great condition once...

Afternoon, I know or believe the C20LET clutch fits the F23 box but you need a new CSC which i understand is part number 55558371. Has anyone with a standard Z22SE fitted one of these clutches? If so what is it like, heavier or just the same ? Only reason i am looking is you can get a...

What a mint VX220 i never thought you would be selling it.

KevinH ha ha I hope so. Its just the un reliability that's the annoyance.

vocky battery was new not long ago but will get tested, what you say about fuel, the first time it failed when it did start it had a almighty bang and black smoke then would not start again till the morning after. Guessing it ignited a bucket load of fuel and back fired.

Thanks Everyone. I also thought about changing the starter motor when the crank sensor was out. The strange thing is it fires first thing when cold and strong. I could really do with someone with opcom / tech 2 but I don't know anyone in my area. I will get the Battery and starter tested...

Sourced a map sensor and a fuel rail with with fpr and injectors. Will update once they arrive.

KevinH thanks for your help it seems the map sensor is common across multiple vauxhall models. With FPR would be better to get a full fuel rail? Thanks for the comment on the condition its OK for its age, and it's done 211k. Not that good when it won't start though.
