My 9-5 2.2 vector TiD was running fine until without any warning it cut out and I could not get it to re-start. I got a recovery to a garage, who have run a diagnostic test but have found no problems or faults. They have just phoned and said they have charged up the battery and that the car is...

I have a problem with my Aero Convertible engine. The engine stops without warning. It won't start again and won't even turn over. the first time this happened after waiting for a tow truck to turn up (at least an hour) the engine turned over and started but engine management light stayed on. I...

Hi New here so please bear with me. Warning light has been on and off recently, took off the EGR and cleaned it which helped for a bit as did the MAF sensor. But now light on most of the time, and turbo stops working, turn off and on again then it works! MPG down to mid 30's aswell, spoke to...

Hi, My 2003 aero (65000 mles) ground to a halt on the M40 today. The engine just cut out, no CEL, warnings or stuttering, just stopped. All dash lights look ok, plenty of fuel, and engine spins over freely, but won't start. Green Flag took it to a garage who diagnosed "random misfire" - sorry...

Hi, I've recently purchased a low miles 2006 9-3 estate 1.9 tdi (120) which runs lumpily (feels like it's not firing on all cylinders) when I pull away after it sits in traffic for 10 mins plus or after a hot restart (car up to temp, park up for 10 mins, restart and pull away). Problem clears...

Hello all, I am a new member and this is my first post so I hope you don't mind me asking for some help. I was recently given a '93 2.3L 9000CD (not a turbo). I had intermittent problems with the air conditioning blowing warm, which is not fun as I live in Bangkok. I noticed that three of the...

Hi, this is my first post so please bear with me. Under normal driving there's no problem, but regardless of the gear i'm in, when i floor it and the boost gauge hits the red section it dies on me (not violently) like the ignition's been turned off. It refuses to fire up after that. It has a...
