Indeed it was mate. I asked if I could buy the entire car but they said no due to the owner having no insurance. The car is for parts only then it will get crushed, cant believe it as its in great condition and such a rare car these days. What I could not understand is he or she spent all that...

Forgot to say that I live in Milton Keynes, junction 14 off the M1.

If anyone wants any parts then let me know as this scrappy is 5 mins drive from me and I will collect the parts. I could meet up locally, around most evenings and weekends. Im sure she still has the C20 XE lump in her. I know everything else is there except the wheels. Interior looks mint...

Thanks Lee :)

I have found out that the code for my car is this problem...... 74 Air flow sensor - voltage high What does it mean though....im not the most mechanically minded guy by the way! What needs repairing/replacing? Many thanks for all help so far Paul.

Ok......just doen the paper clip test again! Tried it 3 times to be sure! Here goes.... After the first 3 code 12's it does this..... 7-4 7-4 7-4 3-1 3-1 3-1 then back to the code 12's. Any ideas as im a bit confused on how to work these codes out!

I changed the leads, dizzy cap and plugs a few weeks ago. Did'nt think it would cost soooo much! £38.95 for dizzy cap £36.49 for HT leads £12.95 for plugs Total of £88.39.....ouch! I have used Bosch parts though, except the dizzy cap! Bought a rotor arm today for £5.69

Latest news! I replaced the rotor arm and took the battery terminals off for 20 mins. Re-started and ok, not cut out. Took her out for a little drive......engine mangment light still on and she is low and a bit jerky when the throttle is pressed, not nice and free revving like she used to be...

Ok.....here is the latest! I have un-plug the AFM & it still does the same thing, runs for 2 seconds then cuts out. Taken a fuel hose off the goes to the injectors. Turned the engine and it squirted petrol, so not a problem with fuel. Taken the dizzy cap off and turned the engine, rotor...

Just tried the diagnostic test. It did the intial flash, pause etc. Then it did 3 fairly fast flashes followed by 7 fairly fast flashes, pause then did the same again a few times......any ideas?

Thanks Dave. I dont think I have broken anything. I did have to fight with the airbox to get it out as it was held in by 2 rusty bolts. Could it be the air flow meter suddenly deciding to pack up? I tried starting her a few mins ago. She starts straight away then cuts out after 2 seconds no...

Im in huge need of help here as my Astra estate failed its MOT meaning I have to use my Astra 2.0 8v SRI which is up for sale. The car runs like a dream until earlier. The hose from the airbox to the throttle bodie had a slight split (been like this for ages) so I decided to wrap some...

Thank you mate for your advice :beer::beer: Going to get stuck in to it today!!

Thank you!! How do I change the shoes.....seems like a load of springs and clips, is it difficult? Also how do I bleed the system? Many thanks Paul.

My brakes are not working at all well. The handbake comes very high, about 15 clicks. Also she makes a grinding noise from the rear left when I apply the brakes. I took the drum cover off and was greeted by a load of springs and other complex looking things. I looked at the shoes and they look...

£500 cash anyone?
