1.Evporator of air condition has developed a leak and been changed.
Other than that nothing really wrong, except standard maintenance.
2. But I don't exactly realize why the water pump must be changed with the timing belt. (every 60 000 mks) Why not only the timing belt??
1.It is very good doing 125 km/h at 3000rpm in fifth gear. when driving on motorway.
2. Requires more gear changes when not driving in motorway than a 1.6 compact car (e.g. golf) because of long gear ratios.
3.engine too noisy for a car of this segment in low speed, but OK when driving faster than 80 km/h.
4.Bad driving position to my view, (steering wheel too low, seat too high. and I am 190 cm.).Vectra A that I had before this one was perfect on this point.
5. Very good automatic air conditioning.
Hi, I think that the water pump needs to be changed as the timing belt drives it. I have the same model as you do and at 48,00km the timing belt snapped on a highway. I was very unimpressed... I took it to a dealership that I had not been too (closer to tow). Anyway, GM fixed the whole engine as the timing belt has an international warranty. While I was unhappy about the whole situation, I was impressed that it only took one day for GM to agree to pay for the repair. I done some investigation and it turns out that when the 99 vectras were being made a change was made from a HD to STD belt, so some models have double timing belt life.
