    Is this no boost at all? Mine just doesnt have any boost when engine is cold. Once the temp gets up a little, the gear shift notification kicks in and the car goes. Its like i have a limiter on the engine when the engines cold to protect it. My mates merc is the same apparently. I have a 14 plate insignia. Nice cars but they are very sensistive.

    My Astra 2.0 CDTI has From time to time also no boost pressure and the message that I should drive to the workshop. Errors are boost pressure too low and too high and various other messages. I suspect the MAP sensor But aI haven't thought of negative pressure hoses yet. The vehicle has run 240000 km. And suddenly I also have more pressure with the exhaust gases from the exhaust. The only strange thing is that I don't always have the problem with the boost pressure, if I turn the car off and on again, the problem is solved. At some point it comes back, but not regularly.

    Safety Recall: Insignia Rear Toe Link Since the recall that I received a letter about last week, I think your video is very useful to any of us that try to investigate further before handing over to the Vauxhall garages. I agree, you certainly have / had a crack in the nearside toe link which any garage should replace both rather than one on it's own. One thing that the recall doesn't mention, is the NEED to have the camber correctly adjusted as they do the refit, as well as having new bolts too. I'm going to try to take a look at mine as they do it, although, I don't know how successful that will be considering todays H&S rules! Many thanks again.

    Side notes the sump isn't held in with Torx bolts. They have pointier points. The proper tool is RIBE bolts. Not expensive for a set but make the job easier.

    Vauxhall have recalled all insignia to refit stronger camber arms. DVLA supplied them with keepers address. I had both updated free last Tuesday ( May 2024 ) even though I repaired the faulty ones 6 months ago as they had sheered. Thank God I was not speeding but unfortunately this repair did not allow for tyre camber adjustment so inner part of both tyres very worn and need replacing. Perhaps this is why the car steering wheel is vibrating at 80mph ??? Not enough protection underneath on early vauxhall.
