    Good find. This motor - Z 13 DTH on all 2006-2014 Corsa D is electronic throttle control( ETC ). This engine is old Z 13 DTH and WAS used in ASTRA H - in ASTRA H it's the vacuum valve like here. This here engine in the Corsa is from Astra H.

    I had the same issue many years ago with my Corsa. After work the car would only crank but not start. RAC man arrived within about 30mins. He had a good idea what it could be. Hit the EGR valve with a hammer a few times to close it, unplugged it. Engine light came on but it got me home and down to the garage for repairs later that week.

    It's unbelievable that it's an identical problem, I was really happy when I watched the clip, when he sees miracles I go to look but there is none, the intake pipe goes directly to the intake manifold.

    Luis it is perfect like always, I have same engine on my wife suzuki. I have an Xtool instead of Autel but looks like the diag SW is exactly same... how does it possible? Why I am using Opel diag SW instead of Suzuki because the Suzuki diag SW is 100% useless while the Opel diag SW shows all sensors etc... Same controller and Suzuki I guess bought it from Opel directly... some kind of joint venture project like we can see it nowadays also. was it with DPF mounted? Thanks to god my engine runs now perfectly but I had lots of sucks with it in spring at 190 000 km... EGR cleaning, Glow plugs defect, Turbo exchange and DPF echange as it was not possible to clean it anymore 100% clogged... after a 133€ DPF from Autodoc solved all issues and it runs now perfectly. Thanks to you and other enthusiestic YT teachers I could do it on my own all repairs so cost really not much at the end :) And I learned a lot about my car... make no sense to sell it anymore....

    Great job as always . .
    Please can you do me a Christmas favour haha . I did a injector leak of test for 1.5 mins idle . The car runs fine but I am not have with the results . Please may I send a attachment of the results. Cylinder 1 it 20 ml more thank you. Cylinder 1 is approximately 84 ml cylinder 2 is 74ml cylinder 3 is 61ml cylinder 4 is 63ml . . Car is running ok but from my understanding from a cold or warm start I should be recieving a minimal amount in each four cylinders . Please can you enlighten me . Ooooo and have a great Christmas. Keep up the amazing work

    • @LMAutoRepairs
      @LMAutoRepairs  24 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hi
      If the difference leaked by that one injector is too greater than the other ones, could be an indication that that particular injector is on it's way... you can as preventive maintenance, have it reconditioned or replaced, but to be honest, I would worry too much if the car is running with no problems...
      The only thing that could be happening is the HP pump work a but harder to maintain the pressure...

      @LMAutoRepairs thanks for the reply . Just I would of expected to see 20/30 ml in each cup after 2 minutes of engine idle not the amount I was getting . Like I say the car runs fine no hard starting ect . But the leak of seems to me to be excessive would you agree? . Or or the 1.3 cdti A13DTC like this ? . Much appreciated for you time to answer my questions thank you .

      @builtstrongertolastlonger3158 18 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hi mate . Just a update . I scanned ECU and found the codes for all 4 injectors . So reset and re coded after writing the ECU codes for each cylinder
      After many failed attempts I couldn't program cylinder one . . So I just ject on top of the injector it was a complete different code . After writing the new code and taking the car for a run to warm up I re did the leak off test minutes 3.30s of leak off time 40ml cylinder 1 48.5 cylinder 2 42 cylinder 3 and 40 cylinder 4 . So I was pleased with that.
      I then took all injectors out and stripped the completely down and cleaned with brake cleaner and carb cleaner and toothbrush . I soaked in diesel for 5 mins sprayed wd40 equivalent and excellent spray pattern . . Re built re fitted and car is a lot better . Omhs test was good on all solenoids so IAM a happy man . . Thanks for info . Hope ya had a good Christmas. O ye I just cleaned throttle body yesterday aswell as I just seen your video . Mine wasn't experiencing problems just thought I missed well to keep things in order . Take care your a great mechanic
      Il be raising my ECU next when it gets warmer for now I just make sure holes are clear.
      Take it easy mate. O ye next timing chain and probably valve stem seals that will be fun. Ovisually when the weather is a lot warmer haha

When I see stuff like that my first thought is a remap done by some genius...some of them have the bad habit of removing the coding for errors...
