Overall reliability
Good all round car
I've enjoyed driving this Astra over the last 2.5 years of ownership. This would be my 5th Astra but my 1st diesel one. The car rides well despite having 19 inch alloys. It is fairly pokey to drive. Motorway cruising ability is outstanding. 6th gear is a bit tall so can get bogged down if doing less than 60 mph. The car has been reliable except on one occasion when it went into limp mode. Averages 44 mpg over 40K which I think could be better. Other than that, very happy with it.
Issues
DPF Pressure sensor replaced.
Coolant Leak - Inlet manifold gasket - (Fixed by Dealer outside of warranty with 70% factory contribution)
