Interesting! What was the fix in your case? Was it definitely the exhaust flaps, and how much did it cost?

Yep, turned out to be the exhaust flap motor. I didn't try fixing it myself, though; I just took it to a shop and they sorted it out. From what I remember it was a pain to get to on the Astra; I’d recommend getting yours checked out professionally too.

Thanks for the advice! I took it to my local workshop, and you were spot on. The exhaust flap was defective. Cost me 190€ to get it sorted, which I’m not too happy about, but at least the car runs fine now!

Hey! That sounds familiar. I had a similar issue with my old Opel Astra, though. Loud exhaust, especially on startup. I was going crazy trying to figure it out!
