Mk3 Cavalier Owners Club | Vauxhall Cavalier Dot Com

Hi there, Had the spark plugs, leads and distributer changed, while removing the old distributer found out that the wrong one was put in by the previous owner (or his mechanic) as it was the carb version therefore the pin going into the leads wasnt there. Also one of the sparks were cross threaded s...

Hello there,
I am currently looking into getting an cav sri and was wondering what mpg you get on average out of a 2ltr 8v sri.

Might not be this, but just a thought... when it cut out, and you turned the ignition on again, did the dash lights come on as they should? My auto did the same thing when I went through a deep puddle, but the ignition loom or switch started smoking, as if something shorted out and I was unable to ...

Forgive me, but which engine are we talking about? £10 for fuel is nothing these days, I am not surprised you have the light coming on again already. The cold weather tends to increase fuel consumption too. It's a 1.8i. Just got off the phone to my dad and he is going to get a set of spark leads an...

Fuel starvation?

I think so. But not sure, where are they?

I put £10 of fuel in it this morning and have only driven it 5 miles max today since then.

any lights on the dash while its running? does it just cut out at random or does it only do it when your slowing down? Have you got access to a multimeter? Are the battery terminals tight? No lights on dash while running. Just cut out on those 3 occasions so far, the first 2 being when slowing down...

Hello there, I have recently (since passing my test last wednesday) been having problems with my cavalier. On sunday I had to drive though a big puddle (not that deep) so i took it carefully but at the same time kept my speed up, then i felt it losing power so put my foot down to get out and swerved...

Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone could help me out by telling me how to take apart the centre console in order to replace the bulb for the controls and to sort out the fan speed settings which only work on the top two high speeds.

Thanks in advance.

What time will you guys be there?

In nice condition, two older people in it. With a towbar, so probably tows their cardboard tent for holidays and stuff. Haven't seen a light metallic blue Cavalier L Spec before. Was quite a sight! Was on the A1M Betwen P'boro and A14 Junctions. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1990-VAUXHALL ... 492wt_1219

If you thought that box was expensive, check this one out:

Anyone?

Hi there, where can i get a door open switch for a cavalier so that when i open the door the light turns on as mine has stopped working.

Oh man, just gave them a call and someone has already bought it.

I wonder who you bought that from...

Here is a picture of the damage, can't see it very well (stupid blackberry cameras). It looks a lot worse in real life, although have pushed the worst of it out and touched up the scrape mark (in the wrong blue).

I'm in milton keynes. Dads boss wont mind paying for postage as well as the door aslong as i can get one in the right colour.

No, fraid not. You'll have to keep looking around. Shame to hear what happened. Some people are just clueless..... Has he at least offered to pay for your repairs? Ok thanks anyway. Yes, thank goodness, I wanted to see if i could get a replacement door instead as when repaired the paintwork will ne...

Hello there,
Last week my dads boss backed up into my car and put a nasty dent in the drivers side passenger door.
Are vauxhall still able to supply new doors? I've tried breakers but none of them have it in my colour.

Your help will be much appreciated.

Hello there, someone has reversed into my cav and has given it a nasty dent in the driverside passenger door. i'm looking at replacement door for it, my paintcode is 24l which by looking in this forum means it is Spectral Blue Mica. i've found a blue door on ebay from a 91 cav gsi 2000, but the sell...

Going for my first drive in it tomorrow (well later today now i suppose lol). Very excited and nervous. Insurance has been paid for so am ready to go.
