Subject: Zafira 2.0Dti

I'm on the edge of buying a new 2003 2.0DTi Zafira after owning a 1.6 Zafira for 18 months with no problems. After reading your woes I contacted my local dealership who, to be fair, have been good in the past (had 5 cars from them). I questioned the oil usage and they did admit that they had Vectra 2.0 diesel units in because of
excessive oil consumption but no Zafira's (yet?).

I was told that the 2003 model 2 litre diesels have been modified as the seals were leaking oil in the bore (something to do with bore finish??). So I have a Vauxhall dealership telling me there must have been an issue
because it's been rectified in 2003 models. Don't know if this is any help to you or not (probably not).

I have a colleague who's run a 2.0DTi for 12 months and has had no problems...you'd think the oil problem would be common and evident on all 2 litre Zafira diesel units.

Hope your experience ends soon and to your satisfaction.
