Opel Astra 2008: Specs, Review & Price

Why can't I see any error codes for my Opel Astra, 2008? I'm using an RKS+CAN interface.
Regards, Drago.

Hello Drago,

Is the engine control unit (ECU) responsive, i.e., does it display any diagnostic information?

What kind of errors do you expect in which control unit?

Best regards, Rainer.

Hello! The engine control unit is accessible, but...

I can also read some values while the engine is running, but I can't read the error code. The display in the car shows an error somewhere, with a symbol that looks like a key.
If I then turn off the engine and restart it, the symbol usually disappears from the display.
Greetings, Drago.

Okay, the error is probably not related to exhaust emissions... Could you please copy the scan and post it here?
A picture of the error message/symbol on the dashboard would also be helpful.

Best regards, Rainer.

Car with a wrench...

It is the service indicator that is grinning at you there.

Get the maintenance done.
2. Turn off the ignition, remove the key.
3. Reinsert the ignition key, but the ignition remains off.
Press and hold the button for the daily mileage counter for 3 seconds.
5. Service indicator appears: InSP...
Press and hold the button for the daily mileage counter.
7. Depress the brake pedal and hold it down.
8. Turn on the ignition, but do not start the engine.
Press and hold the button for the daily mileage counter and the brake pedal.
10. The service indicator light is blinking and turns off after approximately 10 seconds.
11. The display shows the mileage until the next service.

Depending on the vehicle's coding, a timer (12 or 24 months) also starts, even if the mileage until the next service has not yet been reached. For diesel vehicles, it is 50,000 km, and for gasoline vehicles, it is 35,000 km (Eco Service Flex) or a flat rate of 30,000 km (Eco Service normal).

It happened to me repeatedly that when resetting the service indicator, the values for the trip odometer were unintentionally also lost. One too many presses, and it happened.

Here's the translation:

"Important caveat: The aging of the engine oil is assessed in some way, and this depends on the specific model and engine. This could mean that the service indicator will reappear relatively quickly. To my knowledge, it can be reset via the diagnostic system. I'm not sure if it's possible to completely disable the oil monitoring system."

Hi, I'm sending the pictures. Best regards, Drago.

Thank you, it looks good!

Have you checked Hutfahrer's suggestion yet?

Best regards, Rainer.

No, I will try. Best regards, Drago.
