Hello everyone,
So I just joined the forum and introduced myself in the new members section,and I guess I can seek advice now from all the fellow members.
I just got myself an Insignia 1.8 petrol,and 3 days after I bought it the EML light came on after I tried to start the engine and it did not start at 1st attempt.
All was ok until yesterday,I sat in,put key into ignition,twisted it into start and the car did not started.It was trying to start the engine and car was shaking like always but it just won’t go over and burst to life.I twisted the key back and tried again and it was same,the starter tried to crank the engine but failed.It started normal the 3rd time I tried but after driving to work 40min I switched the engine off tried to start it minute later and it was same.Started second time.Also it looks like it lacks a bit of power?I put the pedal to the metal while going slightly up hill on 4th gear and it did not sped up,had to reduce to 3rd gear for that surge forward to happen.
Anyone that can shed some light on it?
Also is there a way to check the current faults using the menu button on the lever behind the steering wheel (the one that is used to acces mpg and current speed display and so on?).
Thank you in advance.
Take care.
Sid
