    Should I be worried?

    It should be caramel looking mate, the pic looks like it's oil with water or coolant or trans fluid with water or coolant.

    Vt engine won't crank - clunk sound

    Tried jumping it, engine just turns over very slow, changed plugs and leads too. If it was the coil that was the cause, would it even try to turn? Thanks again

    Vt engine won't crank - clunk sound

    Also, I tried turning the engine over by hand but only had a short spanner as I couldn't find the right socket, so it wouldn't budge clockwise or anti, how easy is it to turn by hand ? And yep, the serp belts off :) Cheers

    Vt to vy cranks but won't start!

    Realised the F***ing immobiliser light was still flashing even when cranking, so narrowed it down to bcm or key and thank fk it was just another key. I put new coil, plugs, leads and injectors + purge thing and cleaned all air and fuel lines all for nothing... Happy it's running :)
