Yes, the radio does cut out, and the dashboard lights are acting up. You mentioned a 'dodgy connection' affecting the BUS system. Where is that connection located, and how would I check it? Could I fix it myself, or is it a job for a professional?

Right, sounds like the same thing I had. Honestly, tracing those BUS connections is a pain. I wouldn't advise poking around unless you really know your way around car electrics. I took mine to a workshop. They sorted it pretty quick.

Thanks for the advice. I'll book it in with a technician. I'll let you know what the problem was. It ended up costing 155€ because of a defective cable connection.

Sounds familiar! I've got an Astra too, though a bit newer. Was yours doing weird stuff with the radio, like cutting out or not finding stations? Also, any issues with the dashboard lights flickering? Could be a dodgy connection somewhere, messing with the BUS system.
