Hi guys bought a Corsa Envoy today and have a few questions

the accelerator pedal seems very very stiff, is this common?

the stereo doesnt turn off when the engine is turnt off is this normal?

Also there is no warning when lights are left on

cheers

acelleratorcable needs lubricating near the bulkhead

stereo wont turn on without ignition if its aftermarket and not fitted right

light warning buzzer will be a faulty door switch, unscrew it from the door shut and chec the wires on the back are connected. does interior light come on when you open the door?

The no light warning buzzer is one thing which really annoys me, always forget to turn my lights off!
