Couldn't find anything definitve but there may be some useful information in this link I found on another forum https://www.astrakforums.co.uk/threads/anyone-else-still-having-problems-with-the-forward-facing-camera.5486/

A quality rated (UK specification) as if it breaks or anything else untowards then it would invalidate your insurance if damage is caused by the trailer, caravan, etc becoming detatched from the vehicle

I would consider that as an option but also check the exhaust for leaks, blowing or hissing as this can affect the fuel/air ration

A replacement mirror glass can be purchased to fit directly onto the existing one or for more money you can get a complete replacement glass Never use Superglue as when it hardens it will contract and break the glass

I'm not sure but I mostly use Eurocarparts https://www.eurocarparts.com/ to identify whether they list a timing belt or chain for that particular engine. In this case there is no listing at all for either belt or chain - I would contact your local dealer and give them the registration or VIN to establish which one it is

That's a bit of a strange one as that was what you used to have to do (sometimes) on an old car - leave the ignition on to charge the coil and then turn the engine over to start. Obviously diesel engines are the same with Glow Plugs. Please let us know how it goes and what is the outcome

In respect of the service on an electric car compared to a traditional petrol/diesel engined car then it is vastly reduced in maintenance tasks and the above response from Vauxhall really does highlight how little work is required in a service.

It is good that you are considering running on premium fuel as it does have a better calorific value that the E10 fuel which containing 10% Ethanol offers less performance per mile than a better quality higher octane rated fuel. Since running my older car (but not bikes) on E5 it makes a huge difference on performance and MPG. Not entirely sure what difference you will notice on a newer model like the Grandland but only one way to find out. When it comes to Shell and Esso I imagine they would be of similar quality but again its worth trialling each one to see the outcome

Thanks for letting us know Lee....sometimes it is a leap into the unknown but pays off in the long run. Glad to hear you had the weltbelt replaced and seems very cheap for the job compared to a Ford

It could well be turbo vanes gummed up and sticking which would restrict performance but I would strongly suggest a scan of the codes would reveal the true extent of the cause

Hi Kevin....welcome to the Club You don't often see old Zafira's in that good condition! Good to have you onboard!

Hello, I have loads of mk 3 Astra parts for sale. Is anyone interested?

Arden blue 2006 Zafira gsi with just over 100,000 miles. The car hasn't been driven since passing it's MOT in February. It now has a battery light which hasn't gone after installing a new battery. The headliner material is off. I've not got round to replacing it. But car can come with material and glue. Still runs and drives well. Well maintained with lots of paperwork. Has lowering springs but still a comfortable ride with no scraping. Unmodified otherwise. Feel free to call on 07572332397 if you want to see it.

Can confirm the eBay ones work - did this myself recently. It was originally sticking a bit, but after a few minutes of pressing in and out it came free and now is flawless

absolute joke of a company Vauxhall , i have never dealt with a dealership so unprofessional , every time they sell a crossland or grandland they are committing daylight robbery , i tried to fight them but soon found out the consumer in this country has little to no rights

Down my narrow road, people speed by and often clip my mirrors when I've forgot to fold them in. So I now have on driver (offside) mirror the surrounding plastic has a big chip out of it. Does anyone know a way to repair this without buying a new assembly?. On the passenger (nearside) just the back cover has smashed off so need a new, colour coded one of those. I don't want to get a plain one and prime/paint it. Any good ideas?

1 previous owner before I purchased the car has Vauxhall service history 72,000 miles and is in excellent condition,reliable no dents no scratches interior like showroom condition, long mot may 2026 Silver all tyres are good,air con cruise control,any inspection welcome £2950any questions please contact me

Hi Bibi. I have just checked up on your fault codes. P0002 = FUEL VOLUME REGULATOR CIRCUIT RANGE/PERFORMANCE. P0612 = INJECTOR CONTROL MODULE RELAY CONTROL. P0171 = SYSTEM TO LEAN (BANK 1). Hope this helps you get your crossland sorted. Regards Andy
