How To Reset Vauxhall Viva TPMS Low Tyre Pressure Sensor (2016-2019) – The Viva was a small family car produced by Vauxhall in three series from 1963 to 1979, identified with the initials HA, HB and HC. While sharing much of the mechanical with the Opel Kadett, the Viva is considered the last Vauxhall to have their own project. Later, in fact, for the commercial strategy of the owner General Motors, the British brand will merely propose rebadged versions of Opel models.
The Viva was born in 1962 as an English equivalent of the Opel Kadett A, which had debuted the previous year, in West Germany. The family version was produced with the name of Bedford HAS. In the second series, the Vauxhall decided to support the Viva a cheaper model but built on its very basis: the Vauxhall Chevette. The competing models of Viva in the UK market were the Ford Anglia and Morris Minor.
