It's been a long time since I updated you guys. My car was in the UK for a few weeks while I was on vacation. After much searching, I found a UK mechanic who works with tuned-up Vauxhalls. He had a look, did some work and now he doesn't answer my calls. The last conversation I had with him is as...

I met up with OPCdriver on Saturday and had a long chat about possible options. One concern was that the ECU did not show an error message when we checked it. So I took the car to Opel at lunch today and asked them to have a look: They found find only one error code from the car and no other...

The car's back in Amsterdam now. I was wondering if you guys might recommend a mechanic near Amsterdam who could have a look at the problem?

Yeah, the tachoneedle definitely worked before the conversion. The whole tachounit is the original that was already in my car, when it was a z22se.

I bought a second-hand ABS pump for a z20let and had it fitted today. The ABS and TC light are gone. But, still the speedo does not work. The original mechanic (who did the engine conversion) kept the original z22se hubs and part of the z22se loom. Do I need to remove the hubs and fit...

After my long ordeal with converting from z22se to z20leh, I have a just one major problem. Everything seems to work ok, except for the tacho. I get benzine level, RPM needle goes up and down with the accelerator pedal, but no speed. The speed needle just sits at zero kmh. Symptoms...

Gentlemen, the engine is running! The car was started a couple of hours ago and it drives ok. The doner loom, ECU and chips were all from 2001 (not from 2003 as I was originally informed) and therefore fully compatiable with the dashloom of my Astra which is also from 2001. The problem was...

Update: Look like there is a compatibility issue between Astras made before 2002 and after 2002. Opel/Vauxhall/GM made an update to the loom in 2002 which affects the immobiliser circuit. My Opel (and therefore dashloom) is from 2001 and my engine bay loom is from 2003. "On the older looms...

Guys, the mechanic insists that it is the dashboard loom. Keys, ecu, transponder and engine-bay loom are all from the same diner car (Astra Coupe turbo). So, I'll try it. I want to buy a dashboard loom from somewhere. Marktplatz doesn't seem to have anything and my Duth isn't good enough to...
