Vauxhall Corsa - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa D - Years 2006-2014
Part: Throttle body
Operation: Throttle body cleaning instructions

The throttle body is located in the rear part of the engine in a central position: to clean it as shown in the video, it is not necessary to disassemble it but it is sufficient to unhook the intake sleeve connected to it (to facilitate this operation, it is advisable to unhook the other one as well end of the hose connected to the air filter housing). Once the sleeve has been released, start the engine and spray the specific detergent spray inside the throttle body, accelerating in order to facilitate the entry of the spray into the throttle body itself. The ideal would be to disassemble the throttle body to prevent any fouling residues from ending up inside the engine: therefore, evaluate the state of fouling before deciding whether to clean as described above.

How to reset the TPMS light of the Volkswagen Polo 2011

The orange tire light indicates the presence of one or more tires with an inflation pressure below the recommended limit. All this is easily solved by inflating them correctly or replacing them in the event of a puncture. After carrying out these operations it is necessary to reset the warning light and therefore also the sensor in order to have new reading data. All you have to do is start the car ignition and then fully open the glove compartment on the passenger side. Locate the two buttons in the right corner and press "Set". At this point the reset is complete and you can turn off the ignition.
