Hi, are u based in Cape Town?… as I have a misfire issue on my (import) Opel Tigra (LHD)… and have basically bought (from Germany) all sensors and coil packs… plugs changed, ECU changed?… still a misfire on this Ecotec X14XE 1.4 16v motors?…, can u help? Motor was totally rebuilt and rebooted (only done 8000km) since then?… it has been to two mechanics but they “gave up”…. And car hasn’t been driving for the past 3 years… as it has been “in workshop/s” … after a slight misfire started. Car back fires only (last mechanic’s words) car is 1997 Opel Tigra 1.4
Hi good day,just want to know my car startup nicely but when the car gets hot the idle drop to 600/700 rmp,can u assist me mayb with that please,its almost the car then want to die
96 kadett 1.4i..i changed icv from Midas..car revs high and low..disconnect the map sensor and icv then car idles normal..but i can smell it running rich..
Hi Try to get a genuine second hand idle valve . One made in Mexico , it will be a better choice than the ones from the spares shops. Also check your wires and electrical plugs
I need your guidance. How many lambda oxygen sensors does this bakkie have? I have the exhaust gas oxygen sensor light on, and the engine sounds rough when idling.
@solveitautomotive9485 I took to Opel for further assessment and diagnosis. They suspect a faulty fuel pump or injectors. Does this make sense, though?
You need to do one on the TPS from gold wagen. You will see that it's the wrong one for the car. I had idle problems for a year. After trying many tps fr gold wagen. Cleaned my old one with electrical cleaner and put it back and the car is fine.
I try to avoid buying anything at GW , there parts always have some problem. That's why it's good to get to know the names of the various makes and manufactures of parts and research them. I would rather try Masterparts, Diesel. Electric, Suburban or Alert. Thanks for the suggestion I will do it for you and see what happen wish me luck 😓.
I have an issue with my speedometer. Stopped working a while ago. Replaced sensors doesn’t seem to be helping. Any idea what else I can check and or replace?
Hi, so I have the same engine, mine just the chev badge 6w engine, just had my cam replaced along with rockers and lifters, so it's quiet but idling rough and low at about 500revs which is definitely missing. I took off idling sensor and cleaned it and the O2 sensor did not touch the map sensor, was a bit to tight did not want to damage. However it still idles rough and at 500 revs, what am I missing, please help
Hi . It's very difficult to pin point. Everything has to be rechecked , from timing, tps to wiring . Make sure you use original sensors (Mexico) not the aftermarket ones . They work or they don't work in certain vehicles . I had a similar issue , turned out it was a loose wire in the small loom.
Where is the co2 sensor on a 1998 corsa b 1.6 My utility is all of sudden very heavy on fuel after a normal service. Spark plugs smell petrol and is wettish, and car exhaust fumes are rich
This Channel has made me want to buy a Corsa Gamma
Love your videos really appreciate it it help's me a lot
Thank you 👍. Consider joining as a member , you will have direct access and more technical detailed videos.
Will you make a video of the speed sensor on the gearboxes
Thanks man . What would you like to see about the speed sensor?
@@solveitautomotive9485Speedometer that doesn't work and or ABS if it has one
Hi, im a big fan. I recently replaced oxygen sensor on my bakkie the after started idling funny.

This vehicle only has one on the exhaust. Rough idle as I always say can be many things. Start at the basics first.

What electrical cleaner did you use?
@@deonvanzyl1465 any electric cleaner is fine. I used one from midas can't rem the name on hand
Ive did exactly what you did but the car stays idling high does not go down any tips?
Check the wiring the might be a folt somewhere
Tps
Please tel me that you haven't refueled since you drove that 214km.
Location of the iac valve Chevrolet utility 2016 model please
On the throttle body , It's a joined unit . Also check gap and service on cps
Mu opel corsa utility 1.4 is starting but wont idle for long
Good day, have you had any speedo loss issues that you can share.
Hi . At this stage I have had none . If you have issues it's going to be at the cluster itself or at the plug that connects at the engine
I have an issue with my speedometer. Stopped working a while ago. Replaced sensors doesn’t seem to be helping. Any idea what else I can check and or replace?
That's a difficult one . Check the wiring from clock to sensor. Then the clock itself
I have the same problem, where is that sensor situated?

One last question, was I supposed to take battery terminal off when I took off the sensor to clean it
@@kieravolkwyn351 no it's not necessary, however after changing major parts or a service interval it's a good idea to do it as it resets the ecu.
@@solveitautomotive9485Where did u look for the lose wire in the loom?

I'm having the same problem. I replaced tps, idle and air intake senors on. My problem has been resolved with that.
update ?
Coming very soon
