Vauxhall User Handbook   
Just bought a second hand Zafira from a small independent dealer. 
Unfortunately, the previous owner hadn't included the User Handbook for the 
car. Does anyone know where we can get a copy?  Will Vx dealers have one ? 
Need to know things like tyre pressures, oil type and the like.

Any positive suggestions?

Ask at your local dealer, or write to Vauxhall customer services - look at 
www.vauxhall.co.uk

Vauxhall Dealer should be able to supply one.

In the mean time:

Tyres:
195/65 up to 3 persons R15 Front 32 Rear 32. With full load Front 38 Rear 46
205/65 up to 3 persons R16 Front 32 Rear 32. With full load Front 41 Rear 46

Oil. The handbook waffles on at length about this, but it boils (NPI) 
down to 10W-30 or 10W-40 in the UK, ACEA A3 for petrol, ACEA B3 for Diesel.

Hope you enjoy your Zafira, it's a versatile machine.

Try ebay if the dealer price is high.

Many thanks, they have recent manuals as downloadable pdfs. Hadn't noticed 
that before.

Go to Owners,
http://vauxhall.co.uk/ownership/indexHub.jhtml
 there's a MyVauxhall bit (just left of centre), you register with your 
email address and log in, then there's a link to online manuals (vehicle and 
audio systems) going back 2 or 3 years

Cheers to all
