thankyou all ive had the car 15 years now drive it regular as clockwork except last 4 weeks just to shops etc so not many miles standing around 4 days at a time then just say 5miles at a time. had starter motor replaced 4 weeks ago just when lockdown come.its just annoying tapping maybe as im not driving it much 40 10 oil in it new everything.little leak under crankwheel appeared after camcovers were done by serek hes excellent not his fault.i was told crank pressure can move around to weakest place and leak.maybe crank seal leaking aswell.thanks

hi andy,lookers have a new call centre now and parts hub in brum i placed the order verbally for replacement of camcover gaskets inc
the kid who works there ordered cambelt cover and priced for that.so after endless fonecalls today to vauxhall they said the costs for what i wanted would be considerably more so i told them to shove it.as you do. have a trip to sereks thurs sort a few more odds and ends out while im there.
