Hi All...I hope somebody can help here....I have a problem with my 99 Corsa Envoy 1.2 16V....I borrowed a U480 code reader from a mate...but I keep getting a "linking error" message...I assume it's not compliant with my model of Corsa..does anybody know what kind of code reader I can buy that is compliant with my Corsa.
Thanks
Baz

Local garage will do it for £25...you can get an Opcom (I think that's what it's called off ebay) for around £30 with the software, but that's from China or Hong Kong...I don't think it's worth the risk of losing your money for something that might not work, lol.
