Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra G - Years 1998-2006
Part: Engine
Operation: Installing the Exhaust Manifold Gasket

In this tutorial a new exhaust manifold gasket of an Opel Astra is installed. The exhaust manifold gasket helps maintain the union between the exhaust manifold and the side of the engine cylinder head. Once you have obtained a new gasket kit, open the package and carefully arrange each piece it contains on a table. Take the gasket in question and place it so that it coincides perfectly with the holes in the drain. Mount the manifold and, using a ratchet wrench, tighten the bolts that secure it.

How to activate the cruise control of the Nissan Qashqai

Let's see how the cruise control is activated on the Nissan Qashqai: you have to activate it by putting the cruise control switch to "on", then, using only the right spoke of the steering wheel, press the "set-" button, then the "res +" button also on the right spoke of the steering wheel and the cruise control indicator lights up on the car's instrument panel display. If the brake pedal is pressed while the cruise control is in operation or if the "cancel" button on the right spoke of the steering wheel is pressed, the cruise control will automatically deactivate and the cruise control indicator on the instrument panel will go out.
