After changing glow plugs, air, oil, fuel filters and oil the car ran soooo much better. The following day the aux belt came off there was total loss of power. I have replaced the aux belt but I still cannot start the car. It turns over ok but dont catch. I had it idle once but there was no power. Could this be the cambelt gone? If so, how do I check?
thanks all. Read more
Blue smoke and difficult starting sounds as though the cambelt has jumped a tooth and retarded the timing, it needs checking anyway. It shouldn't have done any damage, probably just jumped one tooth. If a new belt is due, now's the time to fit it.
I've always found fewer cars for sale privately in winter, particularly in December. Adtrader and Autotrader are always much thinner this time of year. The weather is usually cold and it gets dark early, so not a good idea to view in the evening nor particularly pleasant at weekends. I've been having a discussion with friends who believe December is the best time to buy and sell.
I'd like to find out what others think about this. Read more

I thought it was introduced (very belatedly) because of the theft of a large quantity of blank original ones ??

I know next to nothing about this gearbox, but I do know that the clutch has to be synchronised with it in some way. Vauxhall dealerships can do it for a price and they call it "calibration".
