2006 Opel Astra 1.8 Questions & Answers
1 Answer
Key code
Well you don't actually program the key, you put the car into a condition so it will "learn" the remote to use with it.
Procedure
1. First open a window (just in case) use existing key (if you have one) place in ignition and turn to ON (RUN position), do not start the engine.
2. Use the new key to lock the car, the key not the remote. Now press one of the buttons once on the new key transponder, the lights should flash, wait 10 seconds and press the unlock button, the doors should unlock and the key should be recognized by the car's security system.
3. If you are programming a second key repeat the above but press the remote button twice, three times for a third key.
Alternative Method
Procedure
1. Switch on ignition; system will then remain in programming mode for 30 seconds.
2. Briefly press any button on the remote control unit while the unit is in the ignition.
3. The central locking system locks & unlocks to show that the remote control has been programmed into the car's security system as a valid remote now paired to that car.

The car over revers
Could be throttle position sensor. TPS. Call the Car Guys and give them the details. They're both MIT grads and they also nuts. They will know what it is. I'm just guessing the computer but it might be a connection. http://www.cartalk.com/ Good luck!

Opel Astra 2L,2004 model misfiring cylinder 1&4 after engine overhaul
Hi did you do the engine overhaul yourself? if so I don't think you have any comeback, but, is a registered agent did the work, you should take it back and get them to rectify the problem at their expense as they are the agents for the Opel company in Germany. Incidentally, General Motors sold Opel and Peugeot, France bought it, so you may have a battle to get satisfaction. Good luck!!

I can smell fuel in my 2005 astra where would the smell be coming from
Smell could be coming from anywhere due to how a travelling vehicle often has a slightly negative pressure inside, drawing in odours through every available gap.
Only systematic checking is likely to discover the source.
Vauxhall - Opel have long used fuel hose sections of a rubber hose covered with a fabric braid which doesn't age very well and it is worth paying particular attention to any of these fitted to your car.

Reset (replace) computer box
The fact that all your electrics disappeared including all dashboard lights indicates a faulty battery/connection.
Check the battery terminals for cleanliness and tightness. Check the black earth lead for cleanliness and tightness where it connects to the engine block/bodywork. Try adding an extra black battery lead - connect it to a suitable point on the engine or bodywork
