Brilliant basic explanation and easy to follow. First time I did a service myself and worked well. Super empowering. Cheers for this. Will definitely recommend to my friends 👭 ❤️
Good guide. If i made add a couple of things: when checking the wheel, put it straight, put hands on 09 and 15 o'clock position and wiggle to check for bearing play. And second, please clean battery terminals with grit paper if rusted and apply copper grease not wd40.
Great tour of the hose, line and boot checks near the end of the video. A good habit for folk to get into and not difficult or time consuming to do. Well done Tom.
This is so helpful, seriously! This and previous video (GID screen/aux) are what I was looking for for ages. Should have posted them earlier :) Keep em coming. Cheers!
Great video Tom , shows everything that is needed . Replaced linkage with ease . Question , does anyone know where the bonnet sensor is , as this keeps popping up on screen . Can clear with control indicators, but I have looked on lots of sites and not one has shown where this is
Amazing video very very useful I bought a corsa 1.2 recent and I realised that my engine does shake a little when in neutral I was wondering if that’s normal?
Good video mate, have you got a video on how to do the fuel filter, also did you use the bleed value for the coolant, or did you just take the cap off? Many thanks
Great video mate :) I have a 1.4 SRI and using your video to help me service it. Bought all the stuff off euro car parts for my car but I'm just wondering where the best place would be to put the dirty engine oil? Dont fancy clogging the drains up 🤣
Take to your nearest (uk) recycling centre - they have a tank for used oil or if you know anyone with a garage I'm sure they'd dispose of it for you. Don't ever tip down the drain :)
Excellent video, Wondering if you could help me with a problem, I have a heater blower that needs replacing because it's making a loud buzzing noise, When you look on ebay they say "Not for Cars with air conditioning? My corsa is a 2011 Diesel engine ecoflex with air conditioning, Where car I buy a blower for my car at the moment at a good price, I really want to fit it myself, I would be grateful for your advice, Cheers Paul Foster
All looks good. You could have replaced the sump plug washer. I would especially like to have seen you replace the pollen filter as this is a bit of a bugger to do.
Covered in another video I have done. And defsintelt should include the washer, alth tou will be able to use it again twice in my experience. Of about 7 oil changes on that particular car.
Cabin/pollen filter is actually very easy, just pay attention to the way it came out and it'll go back in dead easy with a bit of force and attention to make sure it's in straight without buckling. It's uncomfortable trying to squeeze into the foot well to do it though
Tom need some help please, just bought corsa month ago, 2007 1.2.I am so upset, car is collecting water in the spark plags area, machanic said that's the condensation but the car is missfireing every time when is raining. I changed spark plugs and coil, and the whole week the weather was nice and dry, cold and it worked perfectly and then again rain, storm. Open the coils and water in number 2, covering almost the whole spark plug. Drain it, drive it, still little missfire and the next day again dry weather works perfectly. Today again rain... Engine light on, service car, little bit working good, little bit on 3 cilinders. Help!!!
hello thanks for the video but id like to know where is the FUEL FILTER ?? i have the same - Corda D 2012 but diden't know where is the location of FUEL FILTER
etienne nel not a lot of info to go on in terms of a diagnosis. Order of things I’d check. Clutch. Pull handbrake on as hard as you can, try driving off. Car should stall and not allow revs to climb whilst engaged. Crank and timing sprockets / pulleys. If none of above. Could be fuelling - try unplugging MAF, see if it changes the fault. If not, unplug O2 sensor - again check for faults. Important to note, unplugging these won’t fix the issue - so don’t expect it to run right, just see if your issue improves. Failing that. Could be a clogged/knackered EGR or even swirl flaps. I had an issue with mine recently. Troubleshooted everything - eventually figured out corrosion on cylinder head had caused a poor earth for the plugs - but of a scratch down and it’s as good as new. Best of luck, hope you get it sorted.
I have a question: I have a Vauxhall Life 1.2 semi-automatic gearbox (year 2013), and I am the third owner ..... I purchased the car in August 2020, and I have had it with MOT and serviced every year without fail, I never changed the gearbox oil ....... as it's a semiautomatic car with a manual gearbox ....... should I have the oil changed next service? it changes gears without a problem and even though it's an old car, it does not give me trouble so far, I am just curious if I should have the oil changed or should I leave it as it is .......... thanks.
Nice video. I bought oil for next service but filter is problematic becouse there are two types. I changed antifreeze and now my heater is hot. It wasn't before.
Thats brilliant well done, might have been airlocked. It doesnt matter try one if it aint right get another. Or just call euro car parts or whoever you buy them from.
Fantastic video, now have everything sorted for my service. My manual doesn't state a spark plug and coolant service, yet it's only on 35k miles. Is it worth changing them yet?
I'd just inspect the spark plugs first, and coolant I'd probably do it to be honest. Although you can get those testing kits to still see if it's okay, maybe slightly over the top tho..
Well done mi old good job but don't use wd-40 on ya door checks or hinges use copper slip or good old grease as wd-40 thins the grease down and thats when you get the old creaking noise when opening and shutting your doors ok mate small hint from years And years at servicing cars/vans and small lorry's 👍
On my corsa D 2010, Radiator fan start running soon as I start car. No boiling or overheating. Air Con. is switched off.. OBD Code is P00B6 "Radiator Coolant Temperature/Engine Coolant Temperature Correlation ".. I really hope it's a faulty sensor..
@@TomsDriveway That is strange. My next question is, I'm wanting to install a rear camera to the boot. But I can't see a way of getting to the rubber boot, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
So is this what they do at the garage that would cost you around £200+? How much did roughly cost your the filters and oil? I bet not much more than £50?
Thank you, potentially auxilary belt or idler pullies. Or as you said a leak somewhere. Whack belt off and rev the engine see if the sound goes away...
Hi have a corsa d 1.2 when going up a steep Gradients it loses power like if I am going 70mph it drops to 40mph but back on even ground works fine what can be Causing this
Hello. Please help me as i am doing full service on my 2009 vauxhall corsa 1.4sxi petrol. What’s the spark plug gap should be for NGK and For Bosch please. Tx
Hi Tom thanks very much for the great vid. I have just bought a 2011 vauxhall corsa 1.2 sxi and will be looking to carry out my own service on it in the coming week. your vid will def help me as i am a total novice. Do you know much about the timing belts etc...or have you done any vids on changing them? mine has done 72k and has full service history but no mention of any belts being changed...i think the 1.2 are chain driven...a) is that correct? and b) do you think i need to get that replaced? theres no funny noises at all when driving but I have lost 2 cars previously (admittedly I didn't look after them - lesson learnt) to the belts snapping and killing the engine so I am massively paranoid about that happening again. thanks again for the fantastic vid.
Thank you for the big comment its great. The corsa's have timing chains inside them. They are expected to last 100,000 miles but often don't due to incorrect oil change intervals. B). If it's making a chain rattling sound potentially depending on the extent of the rattle. Corsa's do have a rattle sound even with the correct oil viscosity and a new chain and tensioner fitted. Plus the hydraulic lifters are usually fairly loud too.
@@TomsDriveway Hey thanks for the reply. I think I'm just going to bite the bullet and get a new chain fitted. Car also just started juddering and hunting this weekend - fairly certain it's the coil pack or sparks. Thanks to your vids I'll be able to do both although it's under warranty so the dealer can do it 😁
Hey my corsa recently started juddering a little when I go into 2nd 3rd and 4th gear. Kinda feels like it loses a bit of power then it picks it back up? Just wondering if you have any idea on what it could be? I changed the spark plugs and coil packs about 2000 miles back, just wondered if you had any idea? I have the eco flex 1ltr corsa!
Don’t really have anything specifically I could think of off the top of my head! I just like to see what you put on as you cover all different things! From the inside to the mechanical bits and then you changing things! So anything haha 😀
youre a legend mate seem to know exactly what youre on about. I dont have any of the tools for this stuff so even if i bought the equipment itll probs equal out at the same price as if i got my mechanic to do it, thank you for the educational vid tho
Can you do a video of how to change the Drive belt ? My Corsa D 1.2 2010 I would need to remove the engine mount to get the belt off which terrifies me, You have to support the engine on the sump. Last time I attempted to remove the belt tensioner I was undoing the bottom bolt of the tensioner and the bolt snapped leaving half of it still in the engine block !! That was not a good day for me :(
Tom's Driveway yea first time for me I started to undo the tensioner and bottom bolt snapped !!! I think I messed it up as I didn’t put a pin in the tensioner hole to release the tension so all that tension was on that bolt that snapped
@@Stxpz oh yeah it is safe. Just makes sure you put the axle stands in the correct place. On the jack points or the axle. Be careful, and think before you do it.
Tom's Driveway I’m from Northern Ireland but have family in Mirfield and I ventured into Leeds fair to say it wasn’t fun so many speed cameras and red light cameras compared to over here it was crazy .
Yeah funnily enough I get the same issue, very very occasionally. I'm assuming maybe the fuel cap seal, or maybe a seal around the tank. Very strange I may try investigate more if it come back
Hi there, can anyone tell me why i can't turn off my spanner light on a vauxhall corsa 2010 1.3 diesel, the service as been done, i tried to reset the light, but it would go out, so i've put it on a diagnostics machine, it's telling me there are no faults with the car, car starts and drives fine. Thanks.
Hey, I guess it depends on alot of factors. I've heard the 1.7 corsa d are good to be honest. The 1.2 I drive are rather slow, mph I get around 39-40 mpg on motorway. Mid 30s around town
I know I thought that, however I put 0-30 in because they rattle for a few seconds as it is. So in winter when the oil is thicker as its colder, I think it just protects the engine faster as it flow easier since it's less viscous.
@@TomsDriveway Wow I never that...thanks. I remember my Opel C had a FF under the car by the driver door (or was it the passenger side.. cant remember)
@@TomsDriveway yet when i went to Vauxhall for a service they said the were going to change the fule filter at that point i realised they were talking shit and serviced it my self

I know I thought that, however I put 0-30 in because they rattle for a few seconds as it is. So in winter when the oil is thicker as its colder, I think it just protects the engine faster as it flow easier since it's less viscous.
@@TomsDriveway If you feeling Frisky at some stage would love to see a gearbox oil change.
Haha frisky, yeah I've been thinking of it for a while. Just the money at the moment that's why.
And the petrol filter?
Unfortunately the corsa d does not have a typical petrol filter. Its mounted in the fuel tank with the fuel pump and it cannot be replaced on its own.
@@TomsDriveway Wow I never that...thanks. I remember my Opel C had a FF under the car by the driver door (or was it the passenger side.. cant remember)
@@TomsDriveway yet when i went to Vauxhall for a service they said the were going to change the fule filter at that point i realised they were talking shit and serviced it my self
Nice one! Yeah no filter on these unfortunately.
@@TomsDriveway the also said it was going to be 380 pound 🤣
