  • Antara removable AHK

    Hello, I have again a questions about entries ect. I ordered my Antara directly from the dealer with a removable AHK. Unfortunately, he did not have the AHK entered and also no ABE attached. When I asked what with it he told me there is an e-test number stamped on the AHK you do not need a separate ABE!. CAN that be true?!!?!? Does someone in the forum here also have the AHK and could send me if he has an ABE or similar. ? Can you possibly download the ABE from Opel or GM? Gruss Thomas

  • Hello dear Antara – driver!

    Hello all: I am also the owner of an Antara COSMO 2.0 CDTI 5-speed, since 08.11.2007. At the moment I am not very happy. The next day the display was broken from the onboard computer, I didn’t look bad, you can certainly think. But that was not all. At 277 km the car was in the workshop for 2 days, because of following defects. 1. Display from the onboard computer 2. The car always moved to the left 3. Both rear lights wet, large water beads inside 4. Driver’s disc was not set correctly, always scratched when letting down, as if a stone is between rubber and writing. Well, after two days I could pick up the car again and the defects had been removed. Now I drove 1200 km and can take it away again, for the following reasons: 1. High fuel consumption approx. 12 – 13 liters 2. Left exterior mirror does not always work out correctly. 3. Vibrating the foot coupling, (is that also with you? I don’t know that) So When I stand at the traffic light and amplify, and have the foot very easily on the coupling, it vibrates. 4. When the navigation system is running, the left controller blocks from time to time on the steering wheel, so that you can’t scroll. That was it for the first time MFG Michael II

  • Disappointing sales figures for the Opel Antara in Europe!!

    In the penultimate AMS, a report was published that Opel seems to be seriously disappointed with the number of Opel Antaras sold in Europe. It was planned for 2007 that about 50,000 units should be registered. By the end of July, only 17,000 units were sold and the target for 2007 could therefore no longer be achieved. The late introduction of the diesel model was obviously another reason for the buyers to hold back. In contrast to the Chevrolet Captiva, the production of the Chevrolet Captiva in Korea is currently at a standstill. Now GM has a Russia with a new car, which is now in the process of being sold by other manufacturers, partly with older products and Opel now with a new model (already) looking into the pipe again. Your assembly plant opens where you want to produce Opel Antara for the Russian market (about 2,500 pcs per year) It is planned to supply the European market from this plant in a later phase, so that Deawoo-GM has more capacity in Korea for the production of the Chevrolet Captiva.

  • Antara – Question about the middle armrest and the Navi…

    Hello, I’m currently in the process of getting information about the Antara, as I’m thinking of adding an Antara Cosmo 2.0 CDTI automatic. What I noticed on the pictures is that on the Opel side with brown leather equipment the middle armrest is also brown. But with the used vehicles on mobile.de this is always in black leather… Has this been changed in the program of Opel or what does that mean? Another question regarding the DVD 100 Navi… If you buy this, you can use it on the FSE via Bluetooth, right? Is a charging tray needed, or can I leave the mobile phone in the pocket and the drink holders remain in front of the middle armrest? Oh yes, can the Navi also read MP3 DVDs or only MP3 CDs? Thank you for your answers, Gruss from Munich

  • Comparison test VW Tiguan Opel Antara (AZ)

    In the AZ I read the comparison test VW Tiguan Opel Antara. I have to say that I cannot understand what was written in the AZ. I drive an OPEL Antara Cosmo myself and I can only say the car is great. I have the impression that some car magazines misjudge the Opel Antara. After this test in the AZ the VW Tiguan would have to put all the other SUW in the shadows. where it is not even on the market. But it was also like this with the Golf Passat Eos and Polo they have always been tested as the best car in their class. I can’t understand that. Everyone has to make their own judgement about what kind of car they are driving. I think the drivers have more expertise and experience like some car magazines greeting to all professional drivers

  • Tomorrow 11.30 a.m.

    He is finally prescribed to me, it is already 00:58, so today he will come. Yes, an Antara Cosmo with all Schnicki Schnacki and gas system with the V6. Rejoice me right. Then regularly my experiences with the showpiece will post here. Photographs. So now first to sleep in the bed and the sleep of the righteous so that I can then enjoy the first hours. Hi tomaten, my wife has forbidden me to sleep in the car, I should rather sleep in the right bed. Our relaxation comes greeting Hans-Jürgen

  • Winter complete wheels

    Hello together !!! My Antara has been active on the roads for 3 months, and is doing very well. The consumption is at humane 9. Ltr. Diesel, and otherwise he pulls his rounds!! What makes me sogren, however, are the wheels !!! The Cosmo stands on 18 customs cars, which are made of aluminium (as known ) Opel sends every Antara holder a letter, about 16 inches steel rims, which is to be sent back to Opel signed. Before you sign, look at the spare wheel mulde, w orin certainly a 16 inch steel wheel slumbers !!! ( When it comes hard hard, you are yourself SCHULD to have mounted THIS RAD ) But that only on the edge !!! Since March 2007 I have ordered from Opel winter bikes ( from the valid brochure ), which are however not available !!! When do the Opelans mean to deliver me the wheels ??? In the summer ??? If you are not needed anymore ??? Today had an extremely funny conversation with the boss of the car house, and can only say a nmal Opel, NIE, NIE, NIE re-open an OPEL !!!! (which now has nothing to do with the car dealership line )

  • Antarra or Tiguan as a company car!

    hello, some of you have certainly read some of my contributions, in which I was always very critical of the antarra. have also tested it in various executions, but always wanted to stay with the right off-road car and never a SUV. now a serious cut in my life. I give up my professional independence and return to the employed relationship, signed contract and… …and I also get a company car. hl the antarra or tiguan (and this falls completely off to me). now please help me, I have to make the best of it now, it will be the big diesel from the engine. but what equipment, which details to pay attention to, which childhood diseases are to be considered? from the equipment, I can fully pack the car, so full equipment. also has the advantage that we can take over our company cars cheaply after 3 years. am grateful for your tips. us

  • air pressure indicator – saarland/neighbouring pfalz

    why I am sometimes so critical, but say it here and here is the following case, in which I want to help, from someone who has an antara in saarland (nunkirchen to saarbrücken) or adjacent pfalz (zweibrücken/ kaiserslautern). I have the cosmo equipment (with mature air pressure indicator) – accordingly more expensive was the car and the winter tires … (so much more) problem: the winter tires are smaller than the summer tires and the dealer would have to special for the antara a w buy products (about 500,-€) to change the system (according to the dealer) – but he doesn’t want that, because I am the only antara customer with these matures (you can understand) – he offered me to drive my car after merzig (about 90 km easy – sprit, time, km probably af my cost) – but I don’t want – Jenal in Homburg didn’t know the system at Antara at least on the phone – so I have to drive extra to Homburg – date Thursday to not to lose any more time now and around not every dealer here by phone to describe the problem and then (if necessary) go free of charge a modest question to the present antara-fan-community – who in the saarland or adjacent pfalz has similar change (without problems) and can immediately call me a dealer who has this “special” tool p.s.: I don’t have to be puffed up – hope only on help – and if a Saarlander is here, can meet with me, so that an “insider” times my problems i n can take light … sometimes it’s just to laugh – but no joke!
