Video should be from 8:32 to 15:50 Rest is completely unecessary.

Thanks for the comment. As we have said in multiple videos this is us doing this first time. Showing that everyone can make mistakes. But appreciate the feedback and thanks for watching the video. 👍🏻

​@@mrmrsmechanics Hi sir, I understand your POV, but your video is a "How to", meaning it means you should show how to do it, not showing your experience on how you did it ! Why ? Because a lot of people (including me) are looking for how to videos, and start following your process in real time for their own car, problem is, the process is wrong, and until minute 8, you're not telling us. Meaning that you probably led some people on the wrong path to change the bulb. I hope you can understand my POV.

@sanakhvi I understand your POV and we appreciate your feedback, we will look to use advice like this in our future videos. We are new to this and will only get better with time and support from our viewers. Thank you.

Hey. Make sure that the top hose hasn’t snapped inside. Make sure any seals aren’t split. If that still doesn’t solve it then it could be a crack on the bottom unit and that will need replacing

Glad you liked the video. After the car is moved when test driven all the floor was cleaned so no oil / brake fluid was left on the street. Hope this resolves the issue 😊

Glad you enjoyed it

Hey glad you liked the video. in my opinion if I had to do this job again, i would have to agree with the Haynes manual. start either side from the outside and work your way across. Completely agree with the idiots that designed it, same design as the Astra H but you have so much more room to work on with that model rather then the J

Yeah they are a pain. If I had to do one again would be a lot easier. Glad you liked the video and glad you managed to change one yourself

It’s a nice and easy job when you know how to do it. Really glad we could help

Glad this helped 😁

That’s the best way. If it’s something you like or enjoy then it shouldn’t matter to anyone else

You don’t have to as long as the key is out of the car. But if you are worried about any faults coming up. Then it wouldn’t harm it to disconnect just to be safe

Unfortunately my son was the camera man in this video. He was trying to get involved. He tried his best

@@mrmrsmechanics He did great! Thanks for the video...

@@tsnudhaube really glad you liked it. he loves getting involved with the videos any way he can

This could be the issue if your burning oil. i would take the coil pack off see if you see any of the coils that are green. or any oil down where the spark plugs are. what engine do you have?

1.6 petrol, astra j , 12 plate

@@Hezza142 So this could be the issue, but on the 1.6 engine it has an oil cooler behind the exhaust manifold that are common for the seals to go. this could cause an issue as well

Thank you for your great video mate you've helped so much oil coil pack and all spark plugs, all been replaced plus coil pack thank you again

@@Hezza142 so glad we could help you out. its such an easy job to do and can make a massive difference

Hey the ones that connect to the radiator that are push on can be a nightmare you just have to try and force it on. Have you tried to push it back on from underneath the engine bay to get a better handle on it?

@@mrmrsmechanics Thankyou i got it on in the end. the problem was the plastic hoop had fallen out and it wont go in below the matching slots unless a flat blade is used to push it down.

@@WendyWindows I’m really glad you managed to get it on they can be a pain

We are currently trying to see if there is any different types of rear lights you can get for the Astra j but at this moment nothing so far. These lights are also error free

Hey kerm here is the link to the ones we got but there is loads of different types www.ebay.co.uk/itm/394629743692?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ymkoiwldqum&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=pjejim5dqmw&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

@@mrmrsmechanics thank you 😊

Hey @kerm9807 They should fit the 2014 Astra. Is yours manual or auto? Here is the link to the ones I ordered off eBay www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154491777757?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=WBfRt5agT8G&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=pjejim5dqmw&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

@@mrmrsmechanics cheers Team

I could do with a link for some for a 2017 Astra Sri 1:4 petrol please Thanks 👍👍👍👍👍

Hey. From looking it up it’s the Bluetooth device that connects to your phone. These ones are usually ok and for something like a Vauxhall Astra you should be good to reset codes

@@mrmrsmechanics thanks Team 😊

We have bought a Topdon AL500 £35 Seems to work ok We are feed up of getting charged £40 to get faults read

@@kerm9807 We Don't blame you at least with you having the code reader you can take the car to anyone or anywhere you want, or if your happy with doing the job yourself even better, that's why we do the videos to show people it isn't that scary to work on your own cars

@@mrmrsmechanics exactly mate, and trying to get booked in a garage is a nightmare in Cornwall

We believe it was the body shop that left the rear window open. Since we have dried the car out and used it a little no water seems to be getting in ( hopefully ) Keep us updated on what you find.

Hey thanks for the comment. What size engine is it in? Hopefully changing the fuel filter could help. Other ideas could be if it’s diesel. Possible injectors but that would normally show all the time not just uphill If it’s petrol could definitely be coil pack and spark plugs we’ve had that issue a couple of times

@@mrmrsmechanics petrol 1.6, , gonna change filter when I get time, think the thermostat went this morning too lol, 👍 temp guage not moving, fans not going on either and the AC off engine too hot warning too lol

thank you, yes it is the 1.4 litre engine. that was the problem we was having engine warning + engine running roughly. off the top of my head I cant remember but you can use the new ones that you order to test sizes, ( we did use a spark plug socket )

Many different shops can provide them. Parts shops. Local hardware shops too. If you know the size. Or you can ring your local dealership.

So I had to get mine from Vauxhall. I have not got the part number however the part you are after is the VVT / camshaft solenoid sensor seal. They should be able to get you the part number and price
