	Have the pads been changed yet matE? it sounds like this is the problem, although in Corsa C's there is a clip on the pad which rubs on the disc constantly when the pads are low, and makes an awful noise so you know your pads are gone

	quote: Originally posted by Adam Kindness your brake pads are low, giving the indication of low fluid...... or your fluid is just low Its a brake warning light too Mate, one of the mechanics blokes were standing there when I was telling the person behind the desk of the problem and he said even then it was probably brake pads/brake fluid before he looked at it, yet when I got it back they said they couldnt find anything wrong with it.

	really though vaux would have known this. If you do a search on here you should find quite a few similar threads. suppose, it wouldnt of returned a fault code for them to read so they would have been lost :lol: PS - i cannot remeber than time i was at a franchised shit hole

	Had the handbrake light coming on whilst I was driving the other day. Took it down to Vauxhall and picked it up the next day, they said they couldnt find anything wrong. Today out and about, indicators wouldnt flash when I was trying to indicate and then handbrake light came on. :mad: Clearly something IS wrong, and Vauxhall are being no help. :mad: Its under warranty still. Do you think Im right in going down on Monday, leaving it there, refusing to shift it until they buck up their fucking ideas and get it sorted. :mad: [Edited on 26-06-2004 by liam_nufc]
