Hey guys! hows you guys?
Literally was opening up the car yesterday on the throttle and pushed her a little hard for a few miles, then at near maximum revs, (7000 ish) there was a boom and then instant loss of engine power and all the dials started going down - the engine oil light came on (red). I pulled over to a stop.
It felt like I had just ran out of fuel or something had gone , or no spark.
On side of road now and the engine turns over - so im getting power to it. I checked outside and my front left light had just died, (they are the upgraded round electric bulb ones, Im not sure what they are called? HID? I'm not sure, but mine is an ABY).
So light was out but sidelights everything else good.
Car had dropped no fluids, all belts still on so no sign of any damage, no sign of engine failure. So I'm now thinking I know these cars have safety features installed to cut the engine if there is a problem to protect it.
Could I have had a relay or fuse blown? which could have caused the car to die like this?
Or does anyone here know what it is?
:/ Ive now been recovered to my address in welwyn garden city :/
Huge thx in advance :/
