Excellent help, well done for sharing. Shame more people don't say thanks or give thumbs up. Cheers it help me lots , especially the torque settings 👍👌
Thanks for the comment Gary 😊 much appreciated! I don’t think many people gap and torque spark plugs anymore. They are usually just fitted out the box and then people wonder why the coil pack later fails 🤷🏻♂️ Andy👨🏼🔧
Got a question mate, got the exact same insignia as you, basically upon starting the car is takes longer than usual to start, around 5-6 seconds, also somestimes wont start first time, have to like wind the key a few times and press the acceleration to gwt it to start, any idea what it could be?
@@simoncochrane588 I'm experiencing the same as you did. ESP warning with juddering. Used my OBD Error reader and got "P0302: Misfire Detected - Cylinder 2". Did changing the plugs and coil pack resolve your issue?
Hi buddy! Yes they are just on the top of the engine on the left (timing side) just under the cam cover (one either side, opposite one another) Andy👨🏼🔧
Hey Andy - you wouldn't by chance have worked on an Isignia Diesel would you? I'm absolutely stumped trying to find the coil pack on mine. Located the glow plugs and they've been replaced but the ODB is also saying the coils are faulty?
@@AMSVauxhall Thanks Andy. I'll have to take another look tomorrow. Bit of a head scratcher atm! Learning as I go, video really helped though mate, thanks again.
@@AMSVauxhall Cheers Andy. Came up with p2282 (fuel/air intake generic). I had a bit of a read up and saw that the intake pipe between cooler and engine manifold often split so ending up taken it out to check - no splits :) Curiously there was oil on the pipe though. I started at air filter and worked my way along and cannot see anything else that would be causing the drop in pressure and bringing up the fault. Car is cranking but just not firing up any longer. I'm merely guessing past this so think I'll be looking at a call out. Proper laugh for a BH wknd :)

Excellent video. Keep them coming Sir!
Thanks so much for this great video. Much appreciated
Thanks for watching buddy!

Hi great video. I have the same engine, do you know what the gap size for the spark plugs is meant to be?
Should be in the video and on the thumbnail / video description buddy
Thanks again for this. When pulling the coil pack I noticed some oil in the third spark plug well. Any thoughts on the typical causes of this?
That is a sure sign that your cam cover gasket is leaking.
I have a video on a Vectra cam cover and gasket replacement. It’s the same engine
Andy👨🏼🔧
@@AMSVauxhall I've just found it. You are an absolute legend! 👍
one final question if you don't mind. Is there a specific torque value for the coil pack bolts??
@@simoran1 yes, that is also in the video
Great video, cheers mate.
preston 9191 yu thanks buddy! Hope it has helped 😁👨🏼🔧

Yes, good stuff thank you....S & L'd
Thanks❤

Difficult to say without hearing it but you need to workout if it’s fuel related or power related
@@AMSVauxhall jus recently got a whole new engine on it, cud it be spark plugs, pistons or starter motor?
@@youngsavag3784 could be fuel filter, spark plugs, starter, battery injectors
Once this has been done, will the Onboard computer detect the repair and cancel out the fault ESP fault itself or does it need to be reset manually ?
ESP is a fault with the braking / drivetrain system. If you have that fault light on them you will need diagnostics to interrogate the ECU’s
Andy👨🏼🔧
@@AMSVauxhall Cheers Andy. I'm replacing plugs and coil pack anyway as they are due and engine was juddering before ESP light came on.

@@mgroarty Yes, perfectly.
@@simoncochrane588 thanks for that quick response.
Hi any idea where the intake n exhaust solenoid is located on the car?
Hi buddy! Yes they are just on the top of the engine on the left (timing side) just under the cam cover (one either side, opposite one another)

Hi David, there is no coil pack on a diesel. It will be referring to the glow plugs buddy 😁

@@davidsewell5637 let me know how you get on buddy! Feel free to send the fault codes and I will try and point you in the right direction
