Vauxhall Vauxhall Zafira Vehicles, Cars Diesel Power Loss Warning Light

The car symbol with the spanner is the cars immobilzer warning light (refer to your handbook)....Engine management light is the engine symbol and the coolant management is the radiator symbol which has a little fan on it.

Hi. I had this problem too. Started in January. I got my mechanic to look at it but he didn't have the full diagnositc kit. It went on for about 3 months before I finally gave in and took it to a Vauxhall workshop. Well, £900 later I wish I'd got it looked at sooner! The loss of power is the car protecting itself. It's in 'limp home mode'. I ended up needing new cam belt, new throttlebody, new 02 sensors and loads more. Bite the bullet and take it in!
