2001 Vauxhall Zafira Elegance review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine management light & coolant light came on - sent the car into limp mode.
General comments?
Had a mechanic look at the car. A fault code came up that it was the injection pump at a cost of £1000 upwards, £2600 if we got a Vauxhall dealer to do it. Luckily for us, our mechanic spoke to a diesel expert and he said that the crank shaft sensor would bring up the same fault code. Today I had this changed at a cost of £80 incl labour, and the lights no longer appear, and car drives normally again. Thought it would be helpful as so many have similar problems. Happy person now.
