Opel Agila

The tall city car, and the two generations come from different manufacturers, which is the whole of the point. The 2000-2007 Agila A is Opel's own, sharing its platform with the Suzuki Wagon R+ but carrying Opel engines and Opel electronics. The 2008-2014 Agila B is a rebadged Suzuki Splash built in Hungary, with Suzuki K-series engines and Suzuki module addressing — so a generic tool reads it fine but marque-specific data must be Suzuki's, and parts catalogues frequently disagree. The K10B and K12B engines in the later car are simple chain-driven units whose faults are mostly ignition coils and the electronic throttle body. The 1.3 diesel in the Agila B is Fiat's Multijet.

Information, not instruction

CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.

Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:

  • The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
  • What you measured, not only what you replaced.
  • What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
