Hi Guys,
Been having some trouble with the daily over the last week. Have tried fixing it but can't seam to work out what the problem is.
It's a VY Spack (V6 Ecotech) that has done around 130000k's.
So the missus was driving it and apparently the motor just cut out... i went down there and it started straight away without any tinkering. But only lasted about 15sec and cut out again. So i helped get the kids home then had to get back to work.
Went down that afternoon with spare coilpacks (had been replaced in another car) hoping it would be enough to get the car home. It was.
Went to the shop, got new coilpacks, put them and and the car wont start. It tries to turn over but just wont. It's not like the battery is flat or it is out of fuel. The fuel pump sounds like its still working and my thinking is that if it was a fuel problem it would have spluttered before cutting out. Anyhow, last night i replaced the spark plugs to no result.
I was just wondering if anyone may know what is wrong.
My next line of thought is to replace the sensor plate under the coilpacks?? I thought it may also be that the alternator has **** itself or that the crank angle sensor needs replacing.
Any feed back is appreciated guys.
Cheers,
Nevin
