    Greetings

    Hello Opel Owners,

    I purchased my XC Barina two years ago and am delighted with the car. Also delighted to find the OpelAus site.

    So far, 52,000 km of happy driving with no problems, except - had the front pads replaced at 45,000 km at Westpoint Indooroopilly and found they squeaked when stopping from low speed. Naturally, service people said they "couldn't hear the problem", which has, fortunately, almost disappeared (after 7,000km!). I don't think I'll have a dealer service again.

    Best wishes to all fellow Barina/Corsa fans.

    Jeff

    Welcome mate. In need of new brakes after 45,000? Interesting. I'm just about to tick over 60,000 in mine and still on the original brakes. Wouldn't have thought the 4 wheel disc brakes on mine would have made much difference but maybe they do after hearing that.
