    Guten Tag from Brisbane!

    Hi! I am new member here in Brisbane.

    I have a 2012 Insignia Sports Tourer, 2.0 CDTI. I bought it in September 2014 and love the car. Previous car was the 1.9 CDTI Astra Wagon, also a great car and it is still in the family, albeit in Melbourne.

    The Insignia has developed the dreaded drone noise coming from the turbo relief valve a couple weeks back, I have it in with Motorama Holden as it is still under new car warranty. I am not too confident that they will fix it.

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a Holden dealership which does good Opel work in Brisbane? Also what about when it comes out of warranty later in the year? I am thinking of taking it to Anderwald's in Sumner Park even though they are VW specialists. Are there any good Opel diesel people around Brissy?

    Cheers, The Pope

    Hi Elliott, no not in Annerley. Mine is a Silver one. Holden Motorama diagnosed the faulty turbo vacuum valve yesterday and then part is on order. Part number is GM55573362.

    Also they will carry out R-R-013 which involves adding a "Retainer, L/Gate, part number GM13441811" to the tailgate suspension strut.

    So all in all a good result for me. Parts should arrive from "down South" in the next few days.
