This forum is wonderful for the Omega. It is good for many other cars too, Jags, MBs, even Teslas, to which many Omegas owners have progressed. Before I joined this forum I dared not tackle big jobs, like changing clutches. Haynes does cover them, but the way he would have me leap from section to section, performing 4 spanner jobs in each one, used to frighten me. James V6CDX made clutch jobs sound easy, and I found I could do them.

Is there a similar forum for the Astra? Googling it, I found a black background forum, similar to the the Rover Streetwise forum, hard to explore and less friendly than the OOF.

My current wish is to change the bulbs in my instrument display. Is it simple, like on the Omega?

There once was a site where all Vauxhall owners used to gather.
I'll be polite and say some of us were asked to leave, and then thats when TB decided to do his own thing, and this was born.
I cannae even remember the name of the old place now.

If you want to lower it and replace the exhaust with a beanz can and make it, er, well wicked innit, then there is a choice of forae.

For actual, generally useful advice, then this is as good place as any

I just ask all my Zafira-A (Astra-G) Q's on here.  Which reminds me, I must start a separate thread

Let's face it, you're much better asking on here. I posted the link so that folk could actually see for themselves how unhelpful, mixed up and light on technical knowledge other forums are compared to this one.

Ah, bollix.......I'll have to lay off taking the piss for a while now.
