Well had the vectra 5months now.. and im just fed up of it now.. ive had nothing but problems since i bought it.. i always wanted a vectra and now its a different thing going wrong since i bought it.. Since buying it ive:

Replaced rear bumper
New discs & Pads all round
New Egr Valve
New Inlet manifold
New Oil Seperator tank
Needs a new intercooler
Needs Rocker gasket replacing (losing Oil)
Needs Crank Seal Replacing (losing oil)
Refurbed my wheels last week and only got the tyres put on and put them on the car last monday.. and last night clipped a round about

I know the feeling fella, I had mine a few months and had to do the manifold and EGR, then curbed a snowflake Soon wanted to change, but am definitely feeling the Veccy love again

I know where you're coming from mate. Back in Jun/Jul i was getting bored of mine, and had had a few repair bills.

I did some cosmetic mods.. SMD Dash Conversion, took out clip on bluetooth and satnav and installed a factory fit, had my 19" snowies done, remap, HIDS etc and now i love the car.

I enjoy driving it and glad i have now kept it. Not everyone will be rejuvenated with cosmetic upgrades, but it worked for me.

Well going from the responses on here lately I will tow the current line of responses and just say this. Things go wrong, it's not a brand new car but a used one and therefor you need to expect faults

Seriously though, I'd be well peed off as you are too. Unfortunately some of the 1.9's are not as good as they should be. The good mpg is offset with the poor build quality. However you have replaced mist bits so hopefully it's going to beca good car now

[DarylAAS]

Hopefully lol.. thats the thing thats keeping me going is that if i get rid then someones gunna have a nearly brand new car as most bits have been replaced lol..

Crank seal went on mine as well, had a few other problems but once they are done then they're done. To be honest looking on the bright side seems the worst has happened and it can only get better. Keep the car for a while longer give it a good year, I'm sure it will impress you sooner than you think. As said the diesels seem to present more problems than petrols as long as your clutch and flywheel seem good then its all good.

wow,.. that sounds expensive for an astra - old shape and second hand

[DarylAAS]

Try giving yours a clean make - it's suprising how much nicer a car feels when it's sparkly and clean inside and out...
