Right...

Took it to vauxhall garage today and they couldn't get the computer to link up the car as it wouldn't work, they told me that it gonna take all day before they find the fault.

Basically What could be the problem really apart from the Orange light coming on? Loose wires somewhere is that what vauxhall going to do find the wires thats loose ?

Does the car run alright? Idling ok? running nicely? etc. Vauxhall are clearly trying to get money out of you by saying it will take all day...

The car runs fine, but when i go on the M1 or A road when i speed up then when i slow down the car jerks on to one side a little bit.

am a bit worried abt the damage it doing to me engine.

My 1L 12v has been like that. Light dosent stay on all the time but most of the time. Took it to a garage. They replaced throttle postion sensor and lambda sensor. It now idels abit better than what it did but it still cuts out every offten.
