    this bloody car is giving me so much grief, however i can’t sell it as i need it for work and traveling. so i figured out how to see the temperature gauge, pressing the stalk 4 times (holding down on 4th press) and then 5 times - so i read online that the ideal corsa temp should be 90 to 110...

    My diesel 2009 1.3L Corsa D engine oil hasn’t been topped up or changed since January 2023 (I know, I know). Last week, I checked the engine oil level to see how it’s doing, and I’m confused. The oil itself is pitch dark black, it’s up to the max marker level and I’ve checked 3 times now: took...

    Hi all, Recently had my egr valve on my 1.3 2012 CDTi EcoFlex 75hp changed and a new radiator fitted. This made the engine light which was on all the time beforehand switch off. Next day, the service spanner light came on whilst driving. Plugged in the fault code reader and no faults were...

    Good morning. How many bleeding points is there in the 1.7 CDTi (A17DTS)? I know theres one on top of the fuel filter but are there anymore? If the car starts it'll eventually be air free anyway as its pushed through the lines and into the combustion chamber right? Surely it'll run rough till...

    Howdy ho. Car: 1.7 CDTi (Engine No: A17DTS) Had this problem for a while now and thrown the parts cannon and minimal knowledge at it and come back with nothing.

    Hi all. Late July last year I bought a 1.7 CDTi SRi (the one with 130 bhp). Some websites say it does 0-60 in 8.9 seconds, and others have said 9.5, however using this little gps 0-60 tool I have I usually get around 7.9s. I was just wondering if anyone else gets exceptional performance from...

    Hi, I took my car (2009 Corsa 1.3 CDTi (diesel)) in for an MOT a week ago and was told it had an oil leak. Must've sprung recently because I check my oil levels often and they'd never dropped. Checked them after being told of the leak and the level is now at around 2/3 of the dipstick. The...
