Opel is a German carmaker from Russelsheim, founded in 1862 (originally making sewing machines). Opel has been part of the Stellantis group since 2017 (formerly GM Europe). Opel and Vauxhall (UK) are the same line-up under different names. The Citroen diesel range is fully shared with Peugeot, Opel and DS within Stellantis.
Older Opel models (pre-2017) share ECUs with Chevrolet, requiring a different toolset. Within Stellantis, ECUs are standardised, so Opel files (from 2017 on) often work on Peugeot/Citroen. The Opel community in Germany and the UK generates a large volume of Stage files. Mid-range Citroen engines are a mainstream chip tuning subject in Europe. The French Citroen community has a large pool of ready-made Stage files.
