I think the part that your reffering to is the 'posotive crank ventilation valve', its job is to recycle the harmful gas from the lower end or sub assembly of the engine case and reburn the gas that is generated there.

My 323 has no dash or side lights working but brake and headlights work ?

Mr, Parker check first the fuse box for any blown fuse and also any relay. Fuse box is on the driver's side legroom and also for relays under bonnet engine compartment. Another possibility for side lights might the bulbs blown and and dashboard as well. For better resolve ask the help of an expert-car electrician.

Hie,my fiat punto 2004 reg auto transmission,vibrates heavily when engine warms up.this happens when you stop and engage into (D) for drive.I have tried to drain and add new ATF oil but it won't solve...

This is likely not in your transmission. It sounds like you may also be experiencing some low acceleration and poor mileage. The open bonnet is indicative of needing repairs under the bonnet. It sounds like a probable misfire (i.e. bum spark plug or plug wire(lead)). This doesn't sound too major but do have it inspected before it becomes catastrophic in the future. Cheers and let me know if you need anything else. Just occurred to me, is this a diesel engine?

Hi i have problem with my 53 reg 1.8 sxi vectra c when starting engine from cold idling is not right car cannot be driven away until warm because revs are erratic but once the cars warm its fine a few week...

You need to have the engine control module scanned for fault codes, when that check engine light came on a fault code was stored, that code is likely the key to diagnosing this problem

Bonnet locked

If indeed the bonnet cannot be opened from inside the car, then you are going to have to climb under or figure out how to get to the latch under the bonnet and open it. Hard pain in the rear but its the only way

Ant open bonnet

Hopefully the cable has not snapped. Have someone else lean on the bonnet a little. (Not too much or you will dent it) Try and operate the catch while they are leaning and releasing. Or sometimes dust can accumulate on the catch. Perhaps you can spray under the bonnet with a can of WD40 and hit the catch. Try the above trick again after you have sprayed it. Once you get it open find the cause before you close it again :)
