Title: 2.2 Cut out and now won't start........
Post by: Wag on 12 March 2011, 20:28:13

Travelling home this evening car suddenly acted as if I'd depressed clutch (I hadn't) and then carried on as normal. A mile down the road it did it again and cut out and wouldn't start. Had to get son in law to tow me home. Has any fellow members experienced this symptom before? At a loss to explain this at the moment........any ideas????

Did the revs rise but no power?

Need to get a code reader on it, favorite sensor on the 2.2 to fail is the cam sensor  :y

Yes, and thinking back it did it 2 days ago but "bit" back in ok. Loss of power for a few seconds and then all ok - til yest!
