It’s got full Vauxhall history, lady owner from new, I’m just concerned about the engine seizing up , iv heard that many different story’s, is it true the cause of the problem is a stupid seal on the oil pick up pipe

Yes it is a stupid but important seal on the oil pick up pipe.

Welcome

Looks like you have already done some searching of your own to find that out before asking the question.

Hi,

[buster]

Well iv just been to view the car, straight away it came up with the illuminated spanner and error code 89......it was at that point I walked away,

[marko301]

win some lose some. Probably a lucky escape!

[buster]

I thought that my self, oh well back to the drawing board

[marko301]

Don't give up on the insignias. There are a lot of decent ones out there.

[buster]

Ye I know, it’s just finding the right one, oh well onwards an upwards
