My Astra has this problem. It usually comes on (the warning message) after about 5 mins of driving or when the engine has warmed up. Just wondering why you didn't try the easier option of loosening the float in the tank first instead of buying and replacing the sensor
I'm having to top up the coolant in my j every couple weeks. One mechanic said it was a leaking pipe and it was replaced. The problem was still there, last time I topped it up I could see it leaking from the expansion tank from near the clip on the front right side. Taken it back to a different mechanic and told them where its coming from...thinking there's a split in the plastic or something. They've said it's the thermostat housing. 🤷🏼♀️
Done 3 of these now. Fitted new bottle every time. Not that expensive and main dealers keep in stocks. Not ever had a comeback. Old ones leak as well from the seal on the sensor.
Hi, on Astra j 1.7cdti, the coolant level has no min/max marks on it. I see only a longer line with a up pointed arrow so i assume that is the minimum level. Can you tell me where is the maximum level? Thanks
My Astra is a pain. A year ago I put in a new bottle and float. Cured it for about a month, then I fitted a new thermostat housing and pipe. Okay again for about six months and now the light is back. Not using any coolant though.
Funny I got a vectra C V6 and I see that astra use the same float round metal thing in the tank and use the same stupid level sensor.. Opel did not learn a thing.. Good fix do.

@@ORileysAutos If I explain that to a mechanic.i have done twice ..they say no it’s not related ..it will be a injector ..or a wheel sensor ,,even though I’m parked and it does it ..don’t think they want work They just want to put air filters in ...no codes ..starts and drives as new
Where you able to remove the tank? Mine is also stuck. In addition, since my car is LH drive, the brake fluid reservoir is right next to the tank so there is minimal with space!!
Hi. As a suggestion, after you film the operation and so the processing where you add intro to the video. Make sure you level the volume of every sound in the video to be equal, music from intro is not ok to be louder than your voice.

Grazie mille per il video. Ho cambiato vari sensori e alla fine grazie a te ho scoperto che il problema era nel galleggiante.

How did you detach the lead from the sensor switch? Didn’t show it in the video.
Hi have you ever taken the lower rad hose off that has the push fit grip bar. I can't get the hose back on at all.

Thanks for the vid, it's clear and easy to understand but why the Women at the end ? It's not very Hetrosexual Female friendly . Just saying.
