Ok so is the vauxhall 1.6 8v engine all the same z16se? from the nova right through to the mk4 astra? could a nova engine run on astra mk4 ecu etc?
Also on a corsa C anyone know why the rear number plate light would stay on after the keys out doors locked etc

does it stay on permanently or for a few seconds?
It's going to be a faulty earth or for some reason it's wired as a permanent live, instead of ignition live.
