can any 1 tell me why my stupid corsa aint workin right.
i was told it could be my air flow meter so i took it for a tech 2 test and everything was fine.BUT ITS NOT
when the engine is warm and i stop the revs drop all the way down then go back up and now its starting to stall quite often.
if got new plugs air box and filter and used injector cleaner
has any of you guys got or had this prob?

sounds like the ecu as stu says, does your engine management light appear on the dash, if it doesnt, could still be the ecu and a faulty dash bulb or connection between them, best get it taken to vauxhall, and they can put it on there diagnostic computer and tell you exactly whats wrong.

if the rev's are droping then it'll be an air leak from the vacuum tube, check the tube from start to finish. and if you don't know were it is then buy a haynes manual
also, next time u get a tech 2 test get them to write the fault codes out for you
