Hi Guys,
New member here, I think I posted this query in the wrong thread yesterday.
Basically, I fell behind with getting my 04 exec tourer serviced (life demands just got in the way) and I think I’ve killed my car..
It started with a noise like an air brake hiss, then the engine rattled like a bag of spanners, The oil light came on.. I drove slowly home as it happened not far from my house, the rattle became a grinding sound, could smell burning and smoke from the oil filler hole. The engine doesn’t like starting, but will eventually.
Any ideas, help, advice on decent mechanic in East Sussex more than welcome.
Cheers,
John
