Out of warranty claim for Vauxhall Corsa camshaft
loto replied to tbourner's topic in General Motoring Issues
Thanks for the advice mate. The car is now off road and I will be getting the bolts checked today. It seems crazy that this problem clearly exists with so many cars yet Vauxhall do not appear to want to prevent a major and pricey breakdown by advising people to simply get the bolts tightened/replaced:mad2: -
Out of warranty claim for Vauxhall Corsa camshaft
loto replied to tbourner's topic in General Motoring Issues
Hi All It's my first time on the forum, so please be gentle with me:wink: I have read this thread with a lot of interest, and I am so sorry so many people have had such a horrible experience with this problem. On a more selfish note, I want to try and not have the same issue myself. The thing is, my wife has a 05 plate, Corsa C, 1.2 Twinport with the Z 12 XEP engine, and lately we have notice a loud rattle from the top of the engine on start up. The engine returns to a smooth running sound within a few seconds. The noise is getting louder, and I am getting very concerned that it may be a precursor to a total camshaft failure which so many other people have unfortunately had to deal with. My question is, is this likely to be the case and, if so, what can I do to prevent it. I would be very grateful for any advice at all on the issue. Many thanks
