	the problem with the abs recalls were the garages were not correctly soldering the earth connections or checking the abs multiplug for corrosion I had a guy from vauxhall come round to check one of my abs reworks and got the a ok good job really as I have done about 350 abs recalls!

	Lol no but I hear about it alot. The old Phase II engines were the best. Bullet proof as fuck. Valvers with Coscast heads too. Ecotec's are absolutely shite. The C20XE with Coscast head is in my top list of favourite engines along with Zetec, Duratec (inc. V6), 20SEH and VTS lump :D

	i was reading a review on a reno yesterday common thing to look for the electrics play up windows, seats, ignition, the manual box can go bang the auto loses pressure or somthing and blow a hole in it the engines weather petrol or diels can throw belts, crack heads, and generally fall apart. only plus point i seen was they have good brakes. so after everything has fell apart, youll still be able to stop. thats reasurring

	Click here Bit worrying if you ask me, mine was recalled and repaired. But could someone please tell me where the abs is located under the bonnet as i want to check to make sure the wires arent exposed.
