I got one a few years back it's not the pro version that is out now though. It's pretty good although I find the city mode is too responsive at low revs and the sport mode is fine at low revs then gives you all the beans are around 25 percent throttle. Ideally would be good if you could connect...

None as I'm trying to convert from factory prop stick

Trying to modify bonnet to gas struts, I had this previously on my Insignia and loved it. Really struggling to find anything that'll fit straight in. The plastic side trims in the engine bay probably making options limited. Anybody on here done the modification with any success?? If so spill the...

Two years on its happens again on motorway but luckily i was in the morning sludge traffic and right next to hard shoulder downhill and managed to come off at next slip free wheeling. Still had power steering. Managed to restart again with no engine light and got myself to work and back home...

Cheers I'll start another thread to ask around. Good yours is now sorted. I've still not had the whining noise come back so who knows what that was

So yours is an auto? Just wanting to know if i would need to drain my manual gearbox before attempting to replace passenger side

I'm about to change mine so hoping somebody has some tips. Did any transmission fluid leak out when you removed passenger side? Or did you drain it first?

I was going to suggest giving it a good hard drive to maybe sort it but i would wait til Fahad can maybe shed some light as he knows these engines inside out. Mine sorted itself out

I had this a few months back and it got less noisy once warmed up. Got home switched off then cooled down a little then restarted and it was gone and have not had it since. I'm thinking maybe intake shutter valve or some other valve stuck in an inbetween position causing air turbulence and then...

Awesome. Can you remember how did you get access to the top mounting nut as it's hidden behind alot off stuff. I can't even get my eyes on it there is so much in the way

Do you have another link as that once is a dead end

Welcome Ron, some really useful help to be found on here

I just checked parts catalogue and they all share same gearbox part no. 21200-RM0-000

It's around the back I'm afraid along with the egr cooler. The pipework runs from the exhaust manifold at the front and wraps around the right of engine (looking from the front) to the egr cooler and valve at the back

I too managed to turn it off and on then back off again using my HDS though it tells you it can't be reactivated once switched off. If l recall it involves a bit of going back and forth with the HDS software. I explained the procedure on another thread hear around 2 years ago it's in here...
