Hey everyone,
Just wondering if anyone can help me. I'm trying to get a quote for work I need done on my VX but I need to know what to say to the mechanic so I don't sound like a helpless girl. Also I'm very short of funds and probably won't be able to get all the work done thats needed so maybe you guys can tell me what takes priority? Ok so heres the problems:
1. The car won't start the first time round when the engine is cold. It just makes the noise like its about to start but the battery light comes up and it shuts down and when I try is again straight after it starts fine. (checked the battery and its good)
2. I think the car is over reving, at idle the tacho is at 1 all the time and when driving at like 40km/h it over revs for 2 seconds up to 4 and the car jolts forward a little. Also when it is idle at lights the car shakes and vibrates.
3.The blinkers always make the ticking noise like they are on, the lights aren't on though it just makes the noise.
4. The car is dual fuel but it wont start or run on petrol anymore. It wont start at all if the switch is on petrol and when I try to switch over while driving the car wont excelerate and it stalls.
Please help me! Can you tell me what to say to the mechanic and in what priority I should fix these problems?
Thanks
Shannon
