Hi eveyone
I have a 2009 ve sv6 sportwagon, today i went to start it and it had a flat battery, so i hooked up the jumpstarter to it and started it and now the is a check engine light.
Would anyone have any ideas on where to start looking for the issue?
Cheers

I have a 2009 build VE and my experience on these engines is there are two things that will give you grief; either a stretched timing chain which will eventually need replacement or the throttle body....throttle body going will give you a stability control fault and turn off your traction control
