G'day.
So I have my first car a 2007 VE Commodore with almost 280,000 on it, the guy I brought it from told me it had problems but was willing to try. I drove it and it was running rough ESP and traction off. The guy gave me spark plugs when I brought it so I put them in just as well old ones were broken well the ceramic bit.
I went to start the car but battery was flat so called NRMA, he told me to drive it for an hour 15 minutes into the drive car was over heating, check oil, petrol low, air con on so I drove home less than a K, next day jumped it again it ran but had lockout active/ data mismatch. Checked what I had done and found the plugs the guy gave me were wrong so replaced with the correct ones and got new battery...lockout/ data mismatch did not come up nor did the radio ask me for the code but is working but still would not start, NRMA came out again and told me starter motor was no good so changed that still will not start.
It does not turn over just go's "donk" when I turn the key like the engine is sized or starter motor don't have enough power, I have checked every fuse and relay still no luck so...I DON'T KNOW??.
Mum says sell it but I don't want to give up on my first car so any help guy's.
