I'm finding at the minute that kodi / the black box seems to work much better on a windows PC than on the firetv stick or the android boxes you can get
Check the earth cables , I had pretty much the same issues as you , if I remember correctly , there is a longish one from the battery that secures to the engine , it was this one that had broken on mine , this was the 1.4 engine not sure which yours is ?
http://www.vectra-c.com/forum/showthread.php?t=219681have a read through that thread , I no it's on a vectra forum lol but the 2 guys in there no there stuff , you will see the 2 I'm talking about
If you open the router settings , there should be a page to see all the devices that are connected to the router , that should show the ip addresses of each device , if there are 2 of the same then that would be your issue , also try changing the wireless channel , does it work when plugged in...

Seems cheap, I've had talktalk before and it worked fine , the only issue I had was if I had to ring them , the language barrier was sometimes a problem
I used one of the cheaper hid kits in my mk3 and it worked perfectly for around a year , I then sold the car so cannot comment after that , no bulb warnings etc , the only thing I will say is they were abit blue in colour for my liking they were 6000k but looked more like 8000k tbh
I'm with premium choice , I had an accident a few months back, they put me in touch with a company called accident exchange and they dealt with everything , I was driving a Mazda 3 sport at the time and they gave me a car that was in the same sort of category with similar power mine was 150bhp...
The first thing I would do is borrow/buy a code reader, it should give you a pretty good idea as to what the problem is, I bought one for around £15 and it's come in handy so many times for things like this
I looked at one of these awhile back as I cheap car for a few months but it was the 2.2, instead I bought a vectra Sri with the 2.2 engine and as you say bloody awful engine its now been broken for spares due to using more oil than fuel lol but Yours looks very nice in that colour with those wheels
I'm not sure if this is going to apply to you in any way but just in case, find the big black earth wire that bolts to the gearbox and check to see if it is broke at the end, causes non starting etc, mine snapped on my old mk3 I bought a new battery etc but in the end this was the cause
The inlet manifold is pretty easy to remove, took me around 30 minutes to get mine off, I would check the puddle you can see is not water though, I had a similar issue with mine and water was getting down into 1 of the plug holes which was causing a misfire, take the coils out and the plugs and...
At least you had the sense to change the wheel, my sister drove her Clio with a wheel exactly the same for a good few weeks until I noticed and made her change it, she didn't see what the problem was lol
These seem a good buy for the money, insurance is cheap aswell but as someone already said the road tax is very high, the standard bose stereo is pretty good though
In regards to knocking in the boot, my old mk3 used to do it, never really bothered me but I think it can also be the boot lid moving slightly where it locks or something like that (I read it on another Renault forum)
