Hi there,
I'm really hoping one of you can help me with this. I have a series 1 V6 VN commodore manual (probably not relevant). The car drives fine most of the time, but every now and then (once or twice a day) it will suddenly cut out on me - regardless of whether revs are low or high. When I try to restart it, it runs for about 5 seconds then stops again (the battery light will be on while it does this). After 30 seconds or so, if I start the car and the battery light has gone out then I know it has fixed itself (it always starts in the end). The problem can happen when the engine is hot or cold. Additionally, the battery light comes on from time to time during normal driving. This has been going on for 6 months. I know I should get a better car, but I am too stuborn damn-it.
I ran the system diagnostic test and it came back with code 12 (no fault).
what I've changed to try and solve the problem:
* Coil pack
* Alternator
* Battery
* ECU
If anyone has any information then it would be bloody awesome if you could post it here
Cheers.
