if your're changing the aspect ratio on the back tyres you will also need to do it on the front. i.e increasing to 245/50r16. = 651mm diameter. (originals were 627mm diameter). fronts 225/50r16 which = 631mm diameter. so fronts would need to be 225/55r16. costing you 4 tyres instead of two...

Have you tried the Nankang NS2 tyres? You can get them rather cheap and in most sizes, I know they do the size you require. So I would say shop around online for some, if you do buy online I am sure some places will fit them for you, as I have brought tires and just taken them in to be fit on to...

Will keep an eye on it, thanks =]

Hi, have you checked the wiring to the actuator from the ecu? Also the actuator is the mechanical device for moving or controlling a mechanism. It will take in energy, usually via air or electric whcih if it is showing electrical fault lets just say electric and will put it into a motion for...

Emission numers are great well where till a few hours ago possibly, I had my cat cut out D= Last test was perfect, DTi is diesel turb injection, CDTi is compact dies turb injection, CDTI cars use the more efficient common rail injection system increasing power and economy where as DTI will have...

I have done pipes, as I said I have changed 3 of them, er looking at the others they are alright apart from the one thats pissing oil all of my clean engine :/ It was egr too, as mine was knack, had mine tested by mate at vaux and he said it was gone so changing it was the best idea to go with...

Hey, yea I was hoping the code would reset pretty fast itself it didnt and I am slightly impatient. So I took it to Mart (guy at vaux) he cleared it for me, and did a ecu check, 5 minutes after leaving the little bugger came back on :/ Izzy (=

P0400 It does now ;D I took on some of the vac tubes, 2 were blocked one was split :/ I got these replaced almost immediately. The car seems to be going better with these changed and the egr valve, my new one came today :D Anyway, the car seems to be going fine till I idle in it, this is when...

Cheers for the reply mate, I forgot to mention I had had the code cleared. I have a mate who works at vauxhall so he does it all for free anyway. He cleared it after recodring it so even when the car is tech2 checked it shows no code, however the light is still there. Thanks again for the...

Hey people, I have a astra 2.0 DTi and I love it. :love: My check engine light has been on for quite a while, decided to get it sorted this week. I changed the EGR as that was actually broken - the light stayed on :sad2: I changed the air flow filter - the light is still on (also did MAF check...
