    Default 1st Vectra.... GSI 3.2 v6 yum yum

    Hi,

    Ive had lots of vauxhalls and just got a 03 vectra gsi 3.2 v6.

    it knocks the socks off any other car i have owned.

    Verry fast and well built, high spec all for £800 :-)

    Question is, What should i do service wise as its done 122k service history upto 75k.

    Changed the oil so far

    welcome , i,m new too , just bought a 3.2 gsi aswell , wow , loving it
    first thing i checked for was cambelt history , as i had a one let go , on my v6 vec b gsi , not pretty i can tell you , and the thick end of 500 to sort !

    luckily enough my new gsi was belted at 69 k , so its not desperate
    but if you carnt find any , i would get it done asap !

    if you have no history for the belt, tensioners and water pump get them done. Might as well flush the coolant too. TBH treat it as a major service and do all the filters and brake fluid change too.

    Yeah, just need pricing for cambelt kit and waterpump. Vauxhall Masterfit do it for £250 for just a cambelt kit.
