Okay .. so from the top
Im from Jersey channel islands (just above europe) but being 9x5 miles really not much knowledge apart from a couple guys
I havnt had any faults read, but there arnt any check engine lights or anything appearing.
im pretty sure that its all linked,
If you can imagine turning on the key to 1 all lights should light up but only, abs, parking, appears. look at clocks and oil goes down below 0 mark (sometimes i would get to this stage and out of no where i would hear the "whine" from footwell area and all lights come on and oil moves to 0 mark, then start and all is perfect) okay going back next is start and RPM,MPH,OIL dont work (no check lights come on) and engine sounds terrible as if push rods gone or just out of oil (what i could imagine)(someone did say this could be timing being thrown out?)
Now sometimes i can be driving and out of no where the clocks drop out, noise starts but no real lose of power then a few seconds later all's back on and fine again without me doing anything.
so i dont think the noise is an exhaust issue.
I have just pulled all fuses (engine & cabin),relays and batt terminal cleaned and replaced .. also removed connector block to ECU in engine bay cleaned and replaced but to no joy....
The batt is only 8 months old and is on tickle charge so seems fine too.
I havnt checked ignition barrel yet but i dont think this could be a cause personally, what do you guys think?
