Where can I get an engine for my 2004 Vauxhall Astravan?
How hard is it to get hold of a 1.7CDTI engine for a 2004 Vauxhall Astravan, and what sort of money will it cost? Also, how hard is it to replace?

You may find an engine in a breakers yard for £300 to £500. It might be worth looking for a complete vehicle as a private sale. Check online companies that supply reconditioned engines. To replace it a workshop manual would be essential, unless you have the services of a good mechanic.

The heater in my 2002 Vauxhall Vectra has stopped working. Also the fan only works on the highest setting. What parts do I need and is it easy to fix it myself?
I have a 1969 Volkswagen Type 2 campervan. It starts as sweet as a nut when it's cold, but once it's warm it struggles to tick over. Once running, it's fine. Any ideas what the problem is?
When I turn the ignition key, the lights come on the dashboard but there's just a clicking noise and the engine doesn't turn. I've charged the battery using a battery starter as it hadn't been driven in...
