| One suggestion would be to check the bonnet plunger is making a good contact one of my old cars being the omega I had did this was really annoying until I adjusted the plunger and problem solved, not sure if there is a way to adjust this on the Zafira A. | |

mine has gone off with the full alarm just the last few days 3 times about 20 mins after locking it... but seems ok now... my mate that works for vauxhall said that apparently when its really cold ,it seem to affect the alarm systems on some vauxhalls and its very common.... i also recall my cavalier sri doing the same when the weather was very very cold...roll on the warmer weather... | |

| All sorted now, went in for a sevice today and a good check over, Alarm was going off due to a dodgy connection on the battery, it was causing it to over heat and setting alarm off. all sorted now and its been 5 hours since locking!! so far so good!!  also sorted a coolant leak in 2 of the pipe's. a leaking oil filter and a leaking rocker cover! having 4 new tyre's fitted 2morrow!! skint this month!! oh and a new reverse switch. | |

| dont think there that hard to change (never done one yet) price wise just get a quote from vaux shouldnt be too expensive | |
