Re: Remove/Replace wing mirror - Newbie
Have a browse at some Peugeot 208 sites. Looks like access via removing the inner door card but check yourself to confirm.

Re: Multiple faults
Remove and clean up the battery terminals and connection. The positive is just a clip on and get slack. Charge the battery at the same time. Mind you have to leave car for about 10-20mins before it will restart after connecting battery up again...strange but true I know. Good luck.

Re: Multiple faults
Not an exact answer but bet it's related to battery voltage or poor battery connection due to random faults. Had same Corsa but it's lease time was up...so glad to be rid of it.
Hope you get it sorted without too much expense.

Re: Corsa F 1.2 Overheating issue whilst idling.
Glad you got the correct attention in the end looks like you've found a good garage. I prefer to perceiver than part with money easily. My next concern would be how did it get to that situation. What caused the fuses to blow etc. Can you recall anything happening prior to the overheating?.

Re: Corsa F 1.2 Overheating issue whilst idling.
Does the fan come on when engine is hot and sitting idling? If not then check why not, power to fan, temp sensor for fan, relay/fuse for fan and electrical connections. I've had problems with older Corsa and got ECU exchanged to find out it was a sensor after all. My hunch is it's actually a fan pro...

Re: Corsa F 1.2 Overheating issue whilst idling.
Start with the basics and eliminate the obvious. If you had a leaking tap you wouldn't replumb the whole house. Vauxhall are having a laugh suggesting that without investigating first.

Re: Corsa F 1.2 Overheating issue whilst idling.
Could be a number of things. Cooling fan coming on when idle?, Coolant level low, but should show fault for that. Air lock in system. Blockage in radiator grill, Bag/bird or ??. might be duff temp sensor. Water pump. Question for others...does the Corsa have the open/close grill vent like the old As...
