I did exactly this job a few months back after all manner of other issues with my 2011 tourer insignia. Overheating issues (broken water pump impeller, radiator clogged with stop leak, leak on the expansion bottle, MAF sensor fault and EVAP valve fault). Took some real working out and lots of testing before finally (touch wood) being able to run the car without MIL lights, overheating or blowing the radiator. Originally thought was so bad that the head had gone - Compression test and Radiator leak detector test showed it was good thankfully! Only owned the car 4 months so far 3 of which fixing between working
@@LMAutoRepairs me too and thanks for the content! Your explanation on the Astra fuel trims helped me greatly in working out whether my o2 sensors were at fault or another item
Opel cars were good in the past .. these days they are just a mess .. even been the worst after PSA company managed them. The video was very helpful sir .. even a good mechanic will not guess it is the purge valve which made a big issue there 😂😂
I disagree and PSA at least make them lighter and decrease spare part costs which was every expensive because of GM licencing - like in this case. Another bad thing in GM days was chain timing. Is not very robust in any new car, because of emissions/consumption and it will last the same as rubber belt, but compare belt and chain replacement. Chain replacement is 3 times more expensive and takes a lot of effort.
@@niccots Your saying is true but what I am seeing is Opel went from worst to bad reliability now with PSA ... For my opinion if Iam going to buy a new car for sure it will not be Opel or Peugeot / Citroen. Their market is going down these days rapidily unfortunately. By the way I have Peugeot 406 1998 and I am happy with HER 😊
Can you imagine how many parts a main dealer would have machine gunned at this car before giving up. Great work as usual, a little time spent thinking and a lot of experience adds up to a good value and correct fix yet again 👍

How spooky. A friend has a 2016 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4 turbo with same P0171. Only yesterday, I tested the same valve by blowing and it is fine. It is closed. I am leaning towards the valve cover, but will check for leaks. For now I have cleared the code, which stays off. I know it will return, because I cleared the code a few months ago. I am no a mechanic but have some diagnostic tools. Great video as always. 👍🏾
Another great video, the engine code is Z18XER 1.8 VVT 16v. The Vectra C has the same engine. That’s in my 06 Vectra. Have it 12 years and it’s great reliable engine and easy to work on.
This is actually a very SLIGHTLY revised engine to meet more recent emission standards and is the A18XER and not the Z18XER. Decent engine all be it slow in the insignias. Shame they are married with the chocolate M32 box and a dreaded DMF. (Yes a DMF in a 1.8 petrol!)

@@irishniall83 I know right! I was told when buying it didn’t have a DMF only to go and research it and find they do indeed. Never have I ever known a 1.8 or below have a DMF on a petrol!

Don’t think I’d ever buy another but let’s see how far this one takes me (at circa 2000 miles a year, I’ll be hard pressed to even hit 100,000 within the next 10 years 🤣)
When you showed the new valve part number, I needed to google that. Ebay price $15... that give me a nice laugh. Out of reality prices that sometimes we find out there.
as we know , dirty MAF of worn MAF (slow values live data due to internal superficial damage, or more often afermarket cheap parts) will alter the fuel trims. good job and have a nice weekend!
I had the same P0171 and when I looked closer to the PCV valve I have noticed the rubber fitting pipe L shape was split, so I used rubber glue and now the car is ideling correctly
I had same fault code and changed; Sparkplugs, both Lamda sensors (o2), cleaned MAF. Reason for the fault was small hole on exhaustpipe what has mesh cover on it, between cat con. and second lamda.
That style Bosch purge valve is used on many newer GM cars and seems to be a common failure. Should have had evap leak/purge flow codes set, likely someone had been there before you and cleared the codes, and the evap tests had not ran yet.

Excellent diagnostic mate , this trim diagnostic is very important , what i noticed that the ecu did not triggered a dtc for an evap large leak , I've never worked on those car but i know that the Toyota's car have the evap large leak dtc stored when this valve stuck open or wear completely and it does not block the gazoline vapor .. did you ever pass by the same situation ?

Vauxhall fuel trims etc. are always odd during open loop. I've seen things like a low flow fault code for example when the ECU itself has closed a valve for another reason. I know there's a delay between filming and posting your vids but have you noticed how the stealers have been inflating their spares prices over the last 6 months. It's getting ridiculous.

Hi, I have a major problem with my VXR GTC since 2018. Been too 4 different garages including vauxhall peter vardy. NO LUCK, so I will try to repair myself No rev count, EGM + ESP light on P0315 - Crankshaft position not learned P0335 - Crankshaft sensor Circuit U0100 - Lost communication with ECM Sensor, Ecu, engine wiring harness, timing chain, sprockets have all been replaced. Issue stays the same. Thinking it is a wiring issue. Any advice on where to start as garages dont want to mess with wiring...
Start on the engine ecu wiring... there is not much more to advise... Check wiring from the sensor to the ecu... Power, grounds etc... The sensor, was that a genuine or an aftermarket?
@@LMAutoRepairs I found your video as I was checking reviews on Autel electrical Probe, i have Autel Maxidas ds708 pro so hopefully with the right tools I can do fault finding Genuine parts direct from Vauxhall, crankshaft sensor replaced total of 4 times as each garage suggested there could be a fault on the sensor
I would scope the timing first... If the timing is out, or something else is not right, you might get those codes... That would be my next step... Well, that would have been one of the steps before replacing all of those parts... which obviously where not faulty... As you still have the same problem... Só, yes, scope the timing and compare it with a good known sample... 👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs I will give the timing a check over. Thank you Just to add the codes prior to any garage being involved remain the same. Even vauxhall dealership replaced timing chain twice as they assumed there was an issue the first time they replaced it... Big headache since 2018 with car being off road
I changed my rocker cover and purge valve on my car and it still rough idles stopped and in traffic. The fuel is consumption is so poor that a full tank doesn't last long... Does anyone have any clue what it could be? It is a zafira 1.6 petrol XE1 engine.

Vauxhall fuel trims etc. are always odd during open loop. I've seen things like a low flow fault code for example when the ECU itself has closed a valve for another reason. I know there's a delay between filming and posting your vids but have you noticed how the stealers have been inflating their spares prices over the last 6 months. It's getting ridiculous.
😊
Indeed they have... this was recorded about 11 months ago... but even then I started to see some ridiculous prices at the dealers...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
👍👍👍
Well that's why they got the nickname stealership because they're always over charging for stuff.
What is the part number to order from bosch
Showed on the video...
Can't remember now...

Thank you so much

Hi, I have a major problem with my VXR GTC since 2018. Been too 4 different garages including vauxhall peter vardy. NO LUCK, so I will try to repair myself
No rev count, EGM + ESP light on
P0315 - Crankshaft position not learned
P0335 - Crankshaft sensor Circuit
U0100 - Lost communication with ECM
Sensor, Ecu, engine wiring harness, timing chain, sprockets have all been replaced. Issue stays the same. Thinking it is a wiring issue. Any advice on where to start as garages dont want to mess with wiring...
Start on the engine ecu wiring... there is not much more to advise...
Check wiring from the sensor to the ecu...
Power, grounds etc...
The sensor, was that a genuine or an aftermarket?
@@LMAutoRepairs I found your video as I was checking reviews on Autel electrical Probe, i have Autel Maxidas ds708 pro so hopefully with the right tools I can do fault finding
Genuine parts direct from Vauxhall, crankshaft sensor replaced total of 4 times as each garage suggested there could be a fault on the sensor
I would scope the timing first...
If the timing is out, or something else is not right, you might get those codes...
That would be my next step... Well, that would have been one of the steps before replacing all of those parts... which obviously where not faulty... As you still have the same problem...
Só, yes, scope the timing and compare it with a good known sample...
👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs I will give the timing a check over. Thank you
Just to add the codes prior to any garage being involved remain the same. Even vauxhall dealership replaced timing chain twice as they assumed there was an issue the first time they replaced it... Big headache since 2018 with car being off road
Purge stake open at idal Lean وRich
Nice!!!

That was nice
Thank you for watching!

I changed my rocker cover and purge valve on my car and it still rough idles stopped and in traffic.
The fuel is consumption is so poor that a full tank doesn't last long...
Does anyone have any clue what it could be? It is a zafira 1.6 petrol XE1 engine.
Aftermarket cover?
I had issues with them...
Thank you for watching!
@@LMAutoRepairs it was a FAI cover not the cheap ones.
Double check that is good...
I had them bad even being new...
@@LMAutoRepairs how do I check these without removing? Removing the vacuum hose at the back of the cover?
The breather hole does nothing.
