Hi guys as some of you may recall I'm restoring my much beloved mk3 astravan and ive come across a asmall issue

I need a part number of a vectra b rear disc splash plate it is a 4 bolt with abs in the centre which also holds the return spring for the handbrake

Driver side one on astra has corroded to hell and now the plate just bends when applying the handbrake so needs replacing but needs a heads up on part number

Thanks in advance

General Car Chat / Re: My Date with Terraclean

« on: 21 April 2013, 08:37:21 »

I'm always somewhat sceptical about things like this, but after having a read around a few places, there seem to be lots and lots of very positive things said about it. And, now having heard from you Sam...it certainly seems worth a go 
I'd be interested in putting a few vehicles through, including one of my 3.2's to see how it gets on.

Cheers Josh  like i say I was very sceptical like your self but the fuel economy on the dti is incredible now the engine doesn't sound as harsh on cold start in the mornings and it doesn't smoke on start up anymore either so win win in my book and my old mans Common Rail diesel has had even better results than me.

He was having issues with his EGR Valve sticking open so when approaching junctions it would idle way to high after a terra clean its lost all idle issues does not excessively smoke under hard acceleration like it used to and he is achieving 52 - 56 mpg from a 9 year old Renault!
