I recently sold my vauxhall zafira tourer and have pre cut window tints for all windows. Light tints for front, dark tints for rear. Free if anyone would like them, happy to post them to you.

I have a brand new and packaged tow bar complete with all nuts bolts and fittings for a five door 1.6 1998 astra any offers accepted . thanks Rick on 07889220124

Thanks for that! Will try to get dealer to find the problem under the warranty ie free of charge!

OK cheers for this will take a look at this I Ave had a look on taken the door card off but did not get around to getting it all the way off as it seemed to e stuck at top, but will try your reply first

Sorry for late update on this I ended up changing the resoviar and low and behold message gone on looking in side of the old one the float was not working so happy days thanks for any reply n this

that's probably the first place I would start Andy but also pay careful attention to any rubber hoses, vacuum lines and anything likely to draw draw unregulated air and cause a vacuum leak which may also cause similar symptoms Let us know how you get on with it

Well after doing some research, I have discovered that it is a problem with the throttle body. So later today its getting hauled off and cleaned out. If that doesn't cure the problem then I'll have to invest in a replacement. I will keep everyone posted on the results.

Hi all new member I have a growing concern regarding this wet belt scenario I feel that it is time extreme pressure in some way should be applied to Vauxhall and other manufacturers to get rid of this wet belt whoever thought that this was a good idea I know other manufacturers use it as well as we will find out soon the cars for example bought on PCP of which more and more drivers seem to be going down that road will on average trade in after 4/5 years which means a lot of people buying second are going to experience this wet belt due for replacement not knowing this and continuing driving it with problems arising the average cost of replacing a wet belt is £1000 + where as a timing belt was on average £200 plus there a very few garages willing to tackle the wet belt replacement because of the amount of work on it I think vauxhall should either consider converting back to the timing belt or replace the existing cars with a chain that won’t deteriorate I think it is shocking that the motoring industry thought this was a good idea very poor show VAUXHALL & others Kenny L

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

I bought the crossland x and had the wet belt replaced at a cost of £400 as a precaution. I've had it for just under three months now and I love it. It's a really nice smooth drive. So glad I took the plunge .

hi folks i own a 2019 vauxhall insignia sri the issue i have is on the dash it comes up with service front camera there is no reset in the menu and local vauxhall dealer wants £195 plus vat to put it on diagnostic then charge me again for repair anyone any ideas

Hi, problem with intermittent starting ignition. With either key the car does sometimes not start, but usually does within 4 attempts. Sometimes leaving key in 3rd position, just before ignition, for a few seconds helps! First garage changed starter motor, no effect. 2nd garage checked fault codes & couldn’t detect what problem was. Autoelectrician did more detailed checks, nothing obviously wrong, changed ignition barrel, as many users report this cleared it, but it’s improved it slightly, so you’re reassured it will start, but hasn’t cured it. Any advice welcomed. Many thanks.
