Frequently Asked Questions

Which Astra generations and body styles are included?

All six generations are covered: Mk1/Gen 1 (1979–1984), Mk2/Kadett E (1984–1991), Mk3/Astra F (1991–1998), Mk4/Astra G (1998–2009), Mk5/Astra H (2004–2014), and Mk6/Astra J (2009–2015, up to the 2012 facelift). Body styles include hatchback, saloon, estate, convertible, and VXR sport variants.

Is this the same software as what Opel and Holden dealers use?

The Astra shares its platform and engineering with the Opel Astra and Holden Astra sold in other markets. This TIS 2000 software is the Vauxhall-branded dealer system and covers all regional Astra variants, including those sold under the Opel badge in Europe and the Holden badge in Australia.

Are interactive wiring diagrams included for systems like ABS and airbags?

Yes. The software includes color-coded interactive wiring diagrams for every electrical system across all covered years, including engine management, ABS, SRS/airbag, climate control, central locking, instrument clusters, and lighting circuits. Connector pinouts and component locators are also provided.

What format is the manual?

This is professional OEM dealer software — Vauxhall TIS 2000 delivered as a VMware Player virtual machine — not a static PDF. It offers searchable technical data by model, year, engine code, and gearbox code, along with step-by-step repair procedures, torque specifications, and integrated illustrations identical to those used by authorized Vauxhall dealerships.
