Morning
Yesterday morning i'd just left the house when about 400m later i lost all power and i coasted to a stop.
Since then the car has refused to start. It started off like it was trying to start but since then just cranks over. i've put some diesel in it as it was quite low, although i've had it lower but nothing.
Last week it stalled coming up to a junction but i managed to get it going again, and i've had a couple of issues of starting problems in the last 6 months now it appears to be permanent
. All the lights come on and when you crank it the oil pressure is at the top as usual, it has fuel in, it's not leaking. I think it's fuel related and based on the problem the other day perhaps air lock or O-rings perished??
Either way, bit miffed just now as i'm without a car which I really don't like and I only had it serviced a few weeks ago and i did mention the starting issues but presumed it was OK as nothing was changed...
Oh and I have an engine oil leak somewhere and my diff is leaking which came up on the service so i guess they need to be fixed at some point? Actually i do have a 1 year warranty i wonder if they are covered under that?
Thoughts anyone?
