Hello
My brother has an R reg mk3 astra 1.4i 8v. First thing in the morning it is very lumpy, once its got warm its runs fine. I cleaned the dizzy cap and rotor arm up, unplugged a few sensors as it was running, non of which made a difference.
I just took it out for a spin, after 5mins it seemed to run fine. I got home, left it running for a min or two then turned it off. I left it for 2mins, started it up and again it was lumpy, yet the thing is still warm from being out!
I assume this engine was also used in the corsa.....
anyone else had a similar problem

could be the distributor timing, try loosening it off while the engine is running when you first tart it up. just one 13mm nut at the bottom and turn it like a couple of degrees each way and see if it gets better. worked on my sisters 1.2 8v and they are basically the same.
