Fronty not starting again? by BIG BILL on Thu Feb 28, 2008 12:40 pm
Well I jumped into the Fronty this morning and guess what " none starter :cry: , It has the same symptoms as before when the fuel injection pump failed.
The local 4X4 garage has just picked it up so I will keep you informed.
Last time it cost me £1400 :(

Ow! Just had the same problem on our 2.2dti, that has had a new pump too, though this time all it seemed to be was the leak off pipes. Though now the 4x4 light is flashing! :roll: Fat fingers has obviously pulled a hose off somewhere! Hope yours is something simple.

It turns out it is the imobiliser ( kaput ) so they have added a few wires and bypassed it, they say it would of given me grieff.
I'm well happy it was not the pump :dance:

Nice one Bill, might be worth geting an after market immobiliser to keep the insurance happy
