problem with Vauxhall Vectra 2.2diesel Elite
#29
Aside from the spanner light, you need the code or to give us a description of any running faults, else we're all pissing in the wind frankly.

Having just spent an evening diagnosing a Zafira dti for hot starting faults for a colleague, they are plagued by three main problems as far as I could see.

1) injector leak off pipes - this is the cluster of small rubber pipes that come away from the head, above the EGR valve. They are known to perish, and are overbraided iirc so not that obvious. new ones cost pennies.
2) EGR valve - standard diesel EGR issues, like to clog to buggery
3) Injector washers - not the copper ones at the bottom but the neoprene (?) ones at the top - an injection arrangement I hadn't come across before but prone to issues.

Get the code....
