Hello
2009 Insignia 2.0 CDTi ... my son in Law's car so I'm getting the symptoms 2nd hand, but car stopped while driving yesterday after some vibration / running rough / sounding like a tractor on just that journey of 8 miles or so!
Car would not start after stopping, lights on dash etc and there is a click when key is turned but then dash lights go out, engine makes no attempt to turn over. Just to make sure it's not the battery, I put jumper leads from my car to his ... same gig ... lights out and a click but no attempt to crank the engine.
If the clutch has gone is there any interlock that would prevent cranking of the engine??
The lights out no engine cranking kinda feels like a key / immobiliser issue??
Any thoughts / comments please or any questions that would help me to diagnose why no engine cranking?
Thank You In Anticipation
