Green Auto Wiper Light
On the odd occasion before I start the car a green Auto Wiper Light comes on in the speedo towards the top.

Car is a 1.6 vvt Exclusiv.

Any ideas?

Fourth gear seems to make a more prominent noise/drone than the others, it seems to happen going upto around and down to 30MPH.

Am I being too picky or do gearboes more this sort of noise, by the way it's not very loud.

GTC Auto Gearbox
So I am just wondering if the auto box on the GTC has a 'learning' function.

I used to own a Mitsubishi FTO which the gearbox 'learned' your driving style you had to reset the gearbox ECU and you put it in manual mode and drive for half an hour and it would 'learn' your driving style so would drive like this while in auto mode till you reset it again.

Retrofit Auto Lights
Hi All,

First time post, so please be gentle with me.

I recently purchased a Zafira Tourer (I believe that the tourer is based on the Astra J hence the post here) and I wish to retrofit auto lights. 
Auto lights will be really handy for me as I do a lot of driving in France and Spain, and I'm forever forgetting to turn off my lights when I exit tunnels and underground car parks. 

As I see it i have two possible options.

Option - 1

Just had the timing belt changed and was advised the water pump was not needed due to it not being driven by the timing belt,  it is driven by the aux belt.

Is this correct?

Auto Lights
Has anyone else had weird experience with the Auto Lights? My headlights seem to be on all the time regardless of whether its night time or bright sunshine at mid-day. I was under the impression that the DRL's would be the only lights to come on during the day and the dipped lights would come on when light dropped below a certain level, thats the way they work on my sons Renault. I'm sure they worked fine when i got the car. I noticed that the satnav display is also linked to them as it seems to

Auto lights stuck on main beam?
Alright folks,

After changjng the LED colours in the headlight switch, I've found out main beam is always on.

I need to take it out again and make sure the switch is properly seated of course, but just wanted to check if there were any additional recommendations simultaneously.
