What does the message "code 55" indicate in the Opel Astra?
Years 2009-2016

Answer

In the Opel Astra, the message "code 55" indicates a clogged particulate filter. This situation is often resolved through automatic cleaning carried out by the system, which should not be interrupted by turning off the engine. In case of severe clogging, we will need to perform a manual cleaning at the workshop.
