it sounds as if the coolant temperature sensor has failed again, if you do buy another make sure its a genuine vauxhall one.
 
i have had i diag today and no codes have come up ,i got the part from euro parts .i am thinking MAF

tried that car running the same ,it only seems to do it after about 10-20 mins what else could it be with no codes coming up ??? could this still be the temp sensor or the MAF
 
Cleaning the air filter won't do any harm. Wish i could help more. I'll keep my eyes pealed.
 
Cheers pal. Wel i have orderd new maf any way when this comes i will put it on and clean air filter and c how it goes cos i have just had new oli filter and fuel filter . If any body can help please drop a post thanks ..
 
good luck with it, horrid cars!
Had a similar problem on a mates car 2 years ago and ended up changing the maf, cts and lambda sensor and it still didnt run 100%
He scrapped it a year later!
