Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 1.7L diesel engine fully covered, including injection timing?
Yes. The software includes complete factory procedures for both the 17D and 17DR diesel units, covering injection pump timing, fuel system bleeding, glow plug testing, and full engine rebuild specifications with torque values.
Does this cover the Opel Kadett Combo and Astravan as well?
Yes. The Vauxhall Astramax shares its Mk2 Astra platform with the Opel Kadett Combo and is closely related to the Astravan. All three nameplates are documented within the same TIS 2000 software database, so procedures and specifications apply across badge variants.
Are interactive wiring diagrams included for the full 1986–1993 production run?
Yes. The TIS 2000 software includes color-coded, interactive wiring diagrams covering engine harnesses, chassis circuits, lighting, charging systems, and multi-plug connector pin-outs for every model year from 1986 to 1993.
What format is the manual?
This is NOT a PDF — it is the official Vauxhall TIS 2000 dealer software packaged as a VMware Player Virtual Machine. It runs on Windows 7 through 11, XP, Vista, Mac, and Linux, and offers searchable repair procedures, component locators, and linked diagnostic data identical to what Vauxhall dealerships use.
