CRASH PROTECTION PLATE FOR THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP WAS NOT INSTALLED IN 3 CYLINDER PETROL ENGINES
A crash protection plate for the high pressure fuel pump was not installed in 3-cylinder petrol engines.
On the affected vehicles the crash protection plate will be retrofitted.
POSSIBLE OIL LEAKAGE MAY OCCUR AT THE GEARBOX BREATHER
it is possible that oil leakage may occur at the gearbox breather when the vehicle is being driven on a racetrack and extreme driving manoeuvres are being undertaken. As a result smoke may be produced and a vehicle fire cannot be ruled out.
On the vehicles affected the single breather pipe for the gearbox breather system must be replaced by a dual breather pipe.
OBSTRUCTION IN COWL AREA MAY FORCE WIPERS TO PARK OUT OF POSITION AND OVERHEAT
If wipers become obstructed motor may over heat with risk of fire
Replace wiper motor bottom cover on affected vehicles

FUEL INJECTOR SOFTWARE DOES NOT CONTROL THE ELECTRIC CURRENT CORRECTLY
The Software controlling the fuel injectors does not control the electric current correctly. This may cause the injector control circuit to short circuit and cause the engine to stall. Results in possible Engine Stall without Warning
Vehicles affected will have the injector control software re-programmed
VACUUM PUMP MAY WEAR PREMATURELY.
The vacuum pump may wear prematurely meaning that in some applications where the brake pedal is pressed quickly whilst at low engine speed � the servo assistance provided by the vacuum system in decreased. This could cause a momentary decrease in braking performance. Braking assistance available to the driver can be reduced
Vehicles affected will be fitted with a modified Vacuum pump.
INJECTOR MOUNTING NUTS TIGHTENING FORCE MAY BE INSUFFICIENT
The tightening force of the injector mounting nuts may be insufficient. This could cause combustion gas to leak from the injector and contaminate the engine oil within the cylinder head. This in turn could cause the engine oil strainer to become blocked. This could cause the engine to stall. Engine Pressure Oil Light appears along with the engine malfunction indicator. Possible Engine Stall without Warning
Vehicles affected will have the engine checked for contamination and repaired / replaced if necessary. The Fuel injectors will also be re-tightened to the appropriate torque.
CONTROL LOGIC WHICH MONITORS THE CHARGING CONTROL PROGRAM FAILS TO DIVERT ELECTRICAL POWER AWAY FROM CAPACITOR IN THE EVENT OF A FAULT
On the subject vehicles the control logic which monitors the charging control program fails to divert the electrical power away from the capacitor when a fault is detected within the capacitor circuit. This can cause a short circuit inside the DCDC converter and could cause the engine to stall or overheating of the DCDC converter itself which could cause a fire. The fault is accompanied by the �i-ELOOP� warning light being illuminated on the instrument cluster along with the �i-Stop� warning light flashing The engine may in some circumstances stall and fail to restart. In extreme cases the DCDC converter could overheat and cause a fire
Reprogram the PCM with the correct control logic. If error code �U3000: 49-DCDC� is stored � the DCDC Converter must also be replaced.

THE SEAT ATTACHMENT RAILS MAY IN CERTAIN CASES LACK THE STIPULATED EXTRA RIVETS AT THE END OF EACH RAIL
The seat attachment rails may lack the stipulated extra rivets at the end of each rail.
Check the assembly and install additional rivets as required.

UNSUITABLE CLUTCH OUTER AND HEAT TREATMENT OF JUDDER SPRING
The shape of the clutch outer and heat treatment of judder spring are unsuitable. Because of that if a unit is ridden repeatedly with high engine rpm the temperature of clutch outer will become high decreasing material strength resulting in breakage of the clutch outer. The Clutch Failing could result in the Engine Locking Possibly causing the rider to fall off the bike.
Clutch outer to be replaced free of charge.
FUEL FILLER NECK RUBBER HOSES MAY CRACK OVER TIME
Rubber hoses in the fuel filler neck may crack over time and could leak.
Improved quality levelling and filler hoses will be installed replacing all of the potentially defective items.
TWO NUTS ATTACHING THE BUSBARS WITHIN THE PREFUSE BOX IN THE TRUNK MAY NOT HAVE BEEN INSTALLED
Two nuts attatching the busbars within the prefuse box may not have been installed
Check the prefuse box and replace if necessary on affected vehicles
THE PIVOT BEARING FOR THE BEARING PIN ON THE DOOR COULD BREAK
The pivot bearing for the bearing pin on the door drive could break.
Installation of an optimised pivot bearing.
IF REAR SEAT BELTS ARE NOT FASTENED AND PRETENSIONERS ARE DEPLOYED THE LATCH COULD BE RELEASED
In case of an accident if the rear seat belts are not fastened i.e. if the rear seat is not occupied by a passenger or is occupied by a child restraint system coupled only to the Isofix anchors and the pretensioners are deployed the rear seat latch could be released. The contents of the rear luggage area if unsecured could enter the cabin area
Replace the latch bezels with bezels the shape of which prevents the seat belts from interfering with the latch and releasing the seat in the event of a pretensioner deployment.
THE CLIP OF A FUEL LINE BUNDLE MAY CHAFE AGAINST THE FUEL PUMP RETURN HOSE
On a certain number of Insignia B - Model Year 18 the clip of a fuel line bundle might chafe against the fuel pump hose resulting in fuel leaks and in the worst case in a risk of fire.
Vauxhall Authorised Repairers will check the hose routing to turn the clip by 180� and to replace the hose and add a grommet to the fuel hose if necessary on all affected vehicles where the hose has signs of damage or leakage
INTERNAL IGNITION SWITCH SPRING MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED WITH A SURFACE DEFECT
Ignition Switch spring defect may cause engine to be turned off while driving
Inspect and where necessary replace the Ignition Switch
IMPROPER WELDING OF THE SPRING MOUNTING PIN TO THE LEFT SIDE CENTRE STAND MOUNTING BRACKET
Improper welding of the spring mounting pin to the left side centre stand mounting bracket may cause a failure allowing the centre stand spring to fall off.
On affected vehicles replace the left centre stand bracket.
