Yup, ABS/BAS unit is Bosch  ;)

The only non Bosch ecu is the Airmatic one, which is Temic.

Bosch without looking... Certainly the ESP module is a Bosch one. I shall double check though.

Apart from the ESP and BAS warning messages, the ABS light is on, cruise isn't working and the ESP switch does nothing... None of which is a surprise.

Found the connections and all sound.

I think it's going to need a thorough talking to, as running the car with the ESP canbus connection unplugged, it had a reet proper fit ;D Took nearly ten minutes to clear all the codes from that :D

Point is, the issue would appear to be a software one rather than a hardware one.

Absolutely no other drivetrain faults. In fact the only other faults are for the passenger child seat recognition and soft closing (this car never had it fitted, but the 320 the ecus etc came from did, so it sees the components as 'missing'... that can be programmed out, but has no bearing on this issue.

The two codes are linked and specific.

I have identified the potential weak link, and just need to find it under the nearside floor :D

Which will be 1022, 1022-019 :D

If the CAN wiring shows continuity, then it will get a chat with STAR, as it seems that the fault needs clearing from the engine Ecu rather than the ESP one. Unfortunately on my iCarsoft, the fault is showing on the ESP, the engine ecu showing no faults  ;D

Not uncommon in the higher powered Astra Hs... The gearbox is more compact than the Vectra/Insignia, so not as much space in the casing, hence narrower bearings which don't tolerate abuse.

Bro had a couple of 1.9 cdti 150 Astras as company cars, both were due new boxes at around two years 50/60k.

I do, (I have WIS etc), but they're not the easiest to use on the laptop...

That said, I haven't had much chance to dig in... Impending asbestos garage ceiling removal/bathroom rebuild ::), so was hoping swapping out the ecu with the matched one from the engine ecu etc would have sorted it.

Will do some digging tomorrow hopefully...  ;)

Great work Mig! Love that colour.

Was it ex-VX, your car? I'm told my KW02- plated one was a demo...

No idea tbh. Not sure how I would find out either ? Would be interested to know though.

is the original owner/first keeper a dealer stamp/name at the front of service history book  ;)

BUT...
