About the Meriva
The Meriva model first hit the market in 2003. It remained on the market for only two generations when it was discontinued in 2014. The second generation made its debut in 2010. The model was discontinued to make way for the Chevrolet Spin in 2012.
Both the first and second-generation models received facelifts throughout their time on the market. These came in 2006 and 2013 respectively.
Being in a relatively uncrowded class meant that the Meriva did not face very stiff competition. The most notable rivals included the Ford B-Max and Skoda Roomster.
The model faced a fairly serious problem in terms of its most common fault code. P0171 is logged when it is detected that the engine is running lean. Unfortunately, the code does not help pinpoint the cause. This can make it fairly difficult to find the cause and fix it.
Another code that is both serious and common is P0017, which indicates there is a problem with the signals from the crankshaft position sensor and exhaust camshaft sensor. This is one of the most serious fault codes as it can hide timing issues that can lead to significant damage.
Owners have reported that one of the best ways to solve this problem is to check both sensors for issues, as well as their respective circuits. Another fairly common cause is a worn timing chain.
P00B7 is another code that Meriva owners have had to face relatively often. This code indicates that there is an insufficient flow of coolant in the cooling system. The most common causes of this code for the model are low coolant levels or a faulty thermostat.
