Hi everyone,
I've got an M reg Astra sport, 1.8 16v, and it's a lovely fun car to drive! However, there are a few things that need fixing on it:
(1) The rear windscreen wiper doesn't work. There is current going to it, I think the motor is seized. Does anyone know of a source for these that would be cheaper than an official dealer? (2) The heater control switch only works on settings 3 and 4 - settings 1 and 2 have no effect. Does anyone know if this is a faulty switch or some other problem? Either way, again a source for the required parts would be appreciated (3) The front passenger side indicator has been hit and damaged. The light still works, but the outer plastic cover has been smashed, leaving onl the more flimsy internal plastic cover over the bulb. Yet again, a good source for this part would be appreciated. (4) The sensorfor the windscreen washer fluuid seems a bit touchy - it reports that the fluid level is low after using 1l of fluid. The resevoir has taken over 2L so far, so I'm getting the warning when the level is still over half full. Is this standard?
Thanks everyone for any help you can give!
