Servicing Vauxhall Cars

When you have a car its essential that you look after it and make sure that it’s in a full working condition. You need to take constant care of your vehicle and ask questions like, have you got enough oil? Do you need petrol? Is everything running correctly? To take the latter point off your mind you need to take your car to be serviced from time to time.

Despite the fact you may think your car is fine, if you are not a trained mechanic then you cannot be a 100% sure that your vehicle is fine. Getting your car serviced is a prime way to ensure that your car is checked for maintenance issues and is running fine.

If you want the best out of your car performance wise then regularly and correctly getting your car serviced is one of the best ways to make sure that you are getting a key performance out of your vehicle.

The most beneficial reason to get your car serviced regularly is that it is the most efficient way to make sure that your car lasts longer and can perform year after year. This in turn may save you money in the long run.

Depending on what Vauxhall you drive effects how regularly you get your car serviced, it could vary from once every year to after every 20,000 miles that you clock up.

However, if it turns out that you need to replace some parts of your Vauxhall than choose MegaVaux as your part replacement service. We have a wide range of parts for different makes and models of Vauxhalls.

So if you want to think about the future of your car book in a service today.

Variable Geometry Turbo (VGT) Systems

VGT systems, otherwise known as Variable Geometry Turbo Systems and Variable Nozzle Turbo boost control systems have been installed to a majority of diesel engine vehicles since the beginning of the 1990's. One feature of the control system is the variable turbo boost control, this has been designed in order to minimise "turbo lag" and to also provide a nearly constant turbo boost pressure at all engine speeds. The turbocharger in the boost control system has been fitted with a finned diffuser piston which in turn is operated by a vacuum controlled capsule, this allows you to achieve and obtain the turbo boost control effect.

Developed to increase the speed of the exhaust gases which strike the exhaust turbine at reduced engine speeds, the finned diffuser piston can also be changed to minimise the speed of the exhaust gases which strike the exhaust turbine at excessive engine speeds, this is done by changing the angle of he finned diffuser on the exhaust turbine.

At low engine speeds, the diesel engine management system control module (PCM) provides a control signal to a vacuum solenoid valve, this valve then opens which allows vacuum to be applied to the controlled capsules; this then leads to the finned diffuser piston being pulled towards the boost pressure control piston. When this takes place, the cross-section area between the exhaust gases and the exhaust turbine is closed, allowing the exhaust gases to pass through narrow cross-sectional areas before passing through to the exhaust turbine. Leading to an increase in the speed of the exhaust gases passing across the exhaust turbine, which in turn also increases the speed of the intake air turbine and increases the rate of boost pressure at  low engine speeds.

However on high speeds, the vacuum is released  on the vacuum controlled capsule. The finned diffuser is pushing open due to the spring tension inside the vacuum controlled capsule. When this happens, the cross-sectional area between the exhaust gases and the exhaust turbine is fully open. This then allows the exhaust gases to pass through a much larger cross-sectional areas before passing through to the exhaust turbine. This reduces the speed of the exhaust gases passing across the exhaust turbine, which in turn reduces the speed of the intake air turbine and reduces the rate of boost pressure at high engine speeds.
