    Opel Astra G CDX (20sel)

    That's the MAP sensor. It works fine as i lent one from a guy with the same car for a week and the car still ran the same with the same issues. I did unplug it and the car ran awful. I even kept it plugged in and unplugged the vacuum pipe but then the car throws a thick black fuel smoke out of...

    Opel Astra G CDX (20sel)

    It happened with the old coil pack and the new coil pack. This engine does not have the pulley on the outside. I had the 1600 too and know 100% what you are talking about as my pulley did the same. This engine's "teeth" for the crank sensor sits on the inside of the engine, directly on the...

    Opel Astra G CDX (20sel)

    The semi-misfire feels constant in the morning but when it is hot the misfire feels like it is misfiring every second to third fire. It's almost feels like a spark jumping every now and then. I think i'll have to clean the injectors cause they are all "clicking" when you listen to them with no...

    Opel Astra G CDX (20sel)

    I disconnected the air temp sensor. all the symptoms was there but the car felt much-much better. The lean/rich misfire was there but you have to sit dead still in the car to feel it. The power was more stable, a bit more than usual but still had the slow/fast issue. The car is getting a bit...

    Thank You. I will try the disconnection. I'll also test again with the multi-meter. I've been reading up on that intake sensor and it seems it can cause the same issues as the coolant sensor or even cold start switch.

    Opel Astra G CDX (20sel)

    I have done it, engine light comes on when i do it. I'm going to call Goldwagen today and ask them how much a new one will cost. I have tested it by back probing and testing with a multi-meter and it seems to change voltage as the car gets hotter. The intake pipe runs over the radiator so it is...

    I have disconnected it a few times but it has the same symptoms. I have actually done it the past weekend and the car is doing the same.

    Opel Astra G CDX (20sel)

    I bought the car (Astra CDX 2l 16v; 20sel motor) from an old man who only drove in once a month for many years. It only has 175 000 on the clock. Before is start: You can find nothing on Google on this engine (20sel). It is a huge struggle to find sensors for this car. The car has no MAF...
