I have one that I used on the Hyundai which is OBDII but it doesn't work on my Astra, someone said you need OPCOM or Tech2 for Vauxhalls, these are fairly expensive for the proper items would any of these cheaper ones work and find out why my EML light is on? I'm assuming lambda but would like to know for sure > ebay link (http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_odkw=tech+2&_osacat=180124&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xvauxhall+ astra+diagnostic+tool+.TRS0&_nkw=vauxhall+astra+diagnostic+tool+&_sacat=180124)

Most code readers will read and clear It but they're not as good as the 2 listed as these have the ability to reprogram modules ect

A friend owns a car show room and has decent tools how could I forget about him :|

In my defence he hasn't had it long!
