Common problems and easy repairs on a 2001 Agila

The 2001 Opel Agila Design is a relatively easy vehicle to maintain, and is recommended to those capable of simple vehicle maintenance. Changing the headlight with reliability is no problem, as you only have to reach behind the housing for access to the bulb. Both the front and rear wiper blades are easy to change on this vehicle. Other models will require the use of tools for changing your blades, so it’s a nice touch to be able to change these blades with just your hands. The cabin air filter is easy to replace, as you only have to reach under the glove box for access to the filter.

Some things are more problematic on the 2001 Opel Agila Design. The center brake light is more difficult to change than usual, as you will need to use a few tools for access to the bulb assembly. You will have to completely remove the tail light housing for access to the bulb. This would have been easier with a designated access panel. Checking the engine coolant fluid level can be difficult, as the reservoir is not overly visible in the engine bay.
