Great video,I’m in the trade like you,I like the way you explain to everyone, so even those that haven’t any idea how or where to start,they do need brake and clutch cleaner to get rid of the brake dust as it’s harmful, but great video.
Hi Aaron Unknown Thanks for informative vids. I have a astra h OPC mk 5 and my traction control light comes on a lot and stays on. No fault codes on Launch x431 pro diagnostic tool or pedal test. I read a bunch of stuff about AMF sensor and and modules. I did adjust my handbrakes 3days ago. I need advice please
Have you any idea what causes the U0121 Code on diesel astra j . I have abs service power steering traction control and failed speedometer when this intermittent fault kicks in after about 40miles of constant driving . If I leave car few hours it's fine again . Replaced battery alternator and 4 abs sensors and it's still doing the same . Any help would be appreciated thanks
Very good video again Aaron 👍my car developed an issue on cold start it’s misfiring for 10/20 seconds I had a look found pool oil around a spark plug leaking oil filter cap I cleaned it up thought that was issue but it’s still doing it 😕
Another great guide I'm on a lot of gsi forums bud is there any chance you could do a vid of exactly where the drain plug and fill plug is on the gear box for the at home mechanic with basic tools plz👍
I have a question about your frontbumper. Is it really just connected to the body with those four quickreleases. Asking because I have an OPC too and always need to disasamble the front before loading him onto a trailer.
Bloody excellent video mate! Can tell you’re a tradesman! Would this set up be similar to a 2015 Astra VXR/ Opel 2 Ltr turbo? Thanks mate from Australia🇳🇿😎👌Subscribed!
Could this be why I can't see the traction control turn off on the dash when i hold it down? Throttle response changes when I press sport, but no traction light? Astra h vxr
Hi My traction icon appears all the time and my astra j pulls to the left. They told me the chassè should be widened by 5 mm for The car to balance and align its driving. I just don't trust that and wish for a more convincing answer. Any help please . Thanks in advance.
What specs are your wheels man? I’ve got the same brembo setup but have to run 9mm spacers for them to fit the coupe turbo wheels, want to get the right wheel with out the use of spacers!
Another great video. Its a shame this wasn't done 3 months ago when I replaced both my front bearings. Looks like you sprayed the calipers at the end of the video what paint did you use?
Are they a big distance for fast road car ? Live in the country mountains in Scotland so need good brakes and what brake line do you use ? Also what pads Megane ?

Hi yes it is, 4 pins and sits on top of chassis mounted front splitter
Oh ok. I dont have a splitter, do You think it will hold with just those pins?
Hi Theresa I have same problem but now my dial are all dead...what do you think could be the problem..
Muy buen video felicidades

Thank you man! Greetings from the Uk 🇬🇧 yes very similar!
Nice how to. Are those the Megane brembo callipers? And vxr disk set up? Thinking I’ve doing that to mine.
Yes mate buy them brand new!
For me it was the same page. It came also TC and ESP error. I have it newly installed by SKF, and now everything is ok.
Great news :)

Hi mate there. Et35 17x8j
Another great video. Its a shame this wasn't done 3 months ago when I replaced both my front bearings. Looks like you sprayed the calipers at the end of the video what paint did you use?
Ahh thats annoying mate. Nah i didn’t paint the callipers just wiped them over
@@AaronUnknownPerformance Well they look really clean mate. Any chance you got an upcoming video for a rear caliper rebuild?
Matthew Sullivan there only a couple years old mate. I don’t ever rebuild them i just buy a new one. Works out cheaper
What are the Brembo breaks of ? And disc ? Are they the Renault ones ?
Bad boi mine are Vxr 321mm discs on megane 225 brembos with adaptors from creation motorsport.
You can also use rs250 megane brembos with 341mm vectra vxr discs with vauxpro adaptors
Are they a big distance for fast road car ? Live in the country mountains in Scotland so need good brakes and what brake line do you use ? Also what pads Megane ?
Got an link for some wheel bearings on astra vxr mk5
Great video!
Hi. Is this sensor also connected to a speed sensor? My speedometer stopped working also showing tc/abs error light..
Yes this has an in built speed sensor too
An other great video keep up the great work 👍🏻
🙏🙏
And from what the car brake calipers?
Mine Astra VXR is making a noise from front left like a wering how do I check if it’s my bearing pulls to left ever so slightly
jack the the car up and try wobble the wheel from side to side to check for play. If its making noise it needs replacing
Aaron Unknown will do thanks for your help
Deja vu 12:40
It was late 💤 🤣
Weapon of a car tho
It's easier to press breaker bar, instead to lift it up
Great work Aaron im a vaux technician you know your stuff ...whats your instagram ?
Thanks man! Its Officialaaronaaron
Wheel and tire spec?
I think better fixed brake disk, Just on the 5 gear. Dont need another instrument.
