i recently got myself a 1.8 02 ls vectra in moonland grey i think it called and am loving it so much more power than my 900cc previous effort, it a nice low milage with about 60k on it now about 59 when i purchased it milage checks out as genuine as far as i can tell along with general condition of the car is quite good, it got a few problems though, it is a car after all and they just love todo that emissions light in and did pedal test and it comes up as low votlage to 02 sensor and slow respone to 02 sensor as well so am guessing that is kaput but that shouldn't be to bad, the driver side window button very opposed to working till had a good few jabs, the reciculate button doesn't seem to work for my heater, or bulb gone at least. it has a werid flat spot/judder/surge when cold which is quite annoying goes once warmed up though, it runs a bit cold since most of my way to work done dual carriage way that free flowing temp guage takes ages to get to 80 and rarely goes above that and soon as it wet or really cold will barly move at all. apart from a few creaks and groans sometimes over speed bumps. couple other minor problems but nothing that i can think of at the moment nothing bother me that much apart from judder and emissions light so it going in for a full once over at local vaux dealer and hopefully get a full report from them then can go up to garage that i got it from to get stuff done under warrenty they gave with it only 6 weeks and only info was any probs bring it back we will sort it, am just wondering what you think i will get away with getting garage i got her from to fix or can i get all faults even minor ones like dodgy recirc button fixed as they did not inform me of any of these?
sorry for long post and am going to have fun at vaux garage if they dont notice a sutle but hilarious problem the passanger side leccy window buttons etc is upside down hehe will ask for a free recheck by the forman as i have no faith in the work done by first guy thanks for any help
edit: it did get a new mot when bough nothing on advisiory for that and a new wiper motor since that was playing silly ******s. For work done do i have to let garage i bough it from do the work or can i insisit on being done by vauxhall or genuine parts most be used etc?
