  • Should I buy the calli?

    Hello, I have found a Cali for a long time now which I intend to buy now, but first your opinion: After the last letter in the chassis number there is a 9! Finns????? It is white, from year 92 and shows no real rust on the outside. Interior is commplett dry. Engine is a c20ne with 153,000 on the clock. Car looks accident-free. In the letter there was only one name. Is serially already lowered with any black feathers. No varnish damage. E sliding roof defective, wheel bearing is broken. Has e-window lifter and on-board computer. Engine is siffig (vetiel cover) but runs so quiet, is amazing! Interior equipment is not so great, since the driver seat is a Recaro which does not correspond to the rest. A dome front must be shot, snaps, from the chassis. Reperatures are not a test, have enough people. Should I cost 1,300 euros. Should I hit??

  • Calibra battery does not charge

    My buddy has a Calibra with the 8V engine in it bj. 92 and he ran 114tkm. After that we changed the V-belt and he wanted to push the bolt in the bottom of it mine he that it has lightly sparked (yes next time we make the battery off). Since the charge no longer the battery. We have already another used Lima built in and with it is the same problem. Tomorrow we will try another one again. Pathogen power gets him. The control lamp lights up a I haven’t tested them yet. I hope you can help me, but maybe we’re just bad luck and both are screwed.

  • high consumption c20xe

    Hello, I need some help, I’ve had an increased verb with my Astra GSI 16v for a long time with short distance/city traffic. In the past this was always 8.5 liters. Now I’m at 11liters. Today I’ve only driven long distance 300km with ca120-130Km/h, there’s the consumption in order: 6.5liters. I’ve been driving the car for 10 years now: Astra GSI 16V Bauj.1993 C20XE Motonik 2.8 KM:Stand 233000KM were renewed: Air mass meter, Lamda probe, Thermostat, Termofühler both, cranks I have the impression that the engine is running too fat. Where is the idle control valve for the engine? The design is different than with the Ecotech engine. Can you clean it? Unfortunately, I did not find anything suitable with the search function. I will also put the same post into the Calibra forum again, so that many people can help me, hope this is ok for you…. Gru ß Sid

  • Water temperature indicator

    Hello, my temperature indicator is always about 2mm above the blue area. Where does it stand with you? 2,0l NE motor. I think that’s way too low and maybe the thermostat that opens the big cooling circuit is always open. Drive the Calibra only recently and don’t know it any different from it. Michael
