Behind the timing belt, it's recommended to change to a new water pump every time the timing belt is changed, usually every 60,000klms

My daughters Holden Viva Auto 2006 has a P0722 Fault which appears to the be a faulty Output shaft speed (OSS) Sensor. I have purchased one from repco but after hours of searching i cannot locate this sensor. I have scanned the internet and had no luck. Amazingly there doesnt even seem to be a workshop manual for this car either. Pulling what little amount of hair i have left out. Hoping someone can show me (photo) where the sensor is located on the car. Thanks in advance

When looking for information or parts you won't find much in a search under holden viva.
Try searching daewoo laceti, the holden viva is a re-badged daewoo laceti

I've just bought a 2007 Holden Viva and I'm wondering if they actually have spark plugs or is the coil box the same thing? I'm having trouble when idling but only seems to happen when the engine had warmed up. Had it to a mechanic who replaced the coil box but made no difference

It has spark plugs, they are located under the coil pack

Only had this car couple of months, and engine has just started to make a tapping sound, I know this could be a few things like low oil, tappits or valve's etc, but wondering how to work out which is the problem?? ( obviously oil is the easiest to eliminate)
Also, What type of oil does it use ??
And am I able to download a copy of the manual?? Thanks for your time, it's appreciated
