The question
Hi, my 2002 Opel Astra petrol takes a while to start. I got the igniton coil changed and the fuel pump and still it goes back to the same as before. Any suggestions appreciated.

Hi Gerry,
It's very difficult to assess such things from afar I'm afraid. It could be any number of things. Basically it comes down to spark, fuel and air, but of course, electronics also come into it, so a sensor could be faulty as well. The best bet is to bring the car to a good local mechanic to have a look.
Hope you get it sorted soon.
