    Hi,

    Recently imported a 2011 Vauxhall Zafira 1.7cdti from the UK. Been perfect until the recent hot weather and the car was impossible to cool down, only hot air coming out of the vents.
    There is a "snowflake" type button that doesn't seem to do anything, does this mean there is A/C? Am I just needing gas pressure or A/C service? How can I physically confirm that there is a A/C compressor in the car?
    Grateful for any advise.

    This is where AC button is in your zafira ... (I believe 2011 models still have this layout). The 'snowflake' button, first on the left.

    I believe that Fast Fit has currently a special price on AC service. Didn't need to visit them myself, by it was recommended by some people here ...

    Snowflake button is aircon. When you press it you should hear a clunk from the engine bay.
