• zafira 2004 gas petrol duel fuel - zafira 2004 wont start 23 Nov 2014 (Forum)
  My initial thought was the battery but the head lights seem bright and the electric windows go up and down with no loss of speed. If i try and turn the radio on it is asking for the radio code.   Another problem i have is that there is a whirling noise everytime i turn whether it be left or right. when the steering wheel returns to stationary position the noise stops - dont know if this is a major problem or not but it drives my wife crazy.
