Fully explain the symptoms in the correct forum then maybe we'll all get somewhere mate.
Actually, better yet why don't you get a bus pass, because you're sh!t at cars. x

Limp & Matt give the lad a break, we all had to start somewhere.
Just think his dad could work for the VBOA ;)
I was never retarded. I have little time and sympathy for the uneducated.
The internet was made for porn and lolz IMO.

Check your oil cap see if it has creamy oil residue under it and see what your coolant looks like as ill bet there is none due to the engine eating it, sounds like youre headgasket has popped mate!
lol to the "haters" as southie said give him a break.
sounds like a bad earth or dodgy connection tbh. was the radio wired in recently?
have you tried jumping or bumping?
and when my mates astra starter motor went it clicked. so i doubt that the starter is broken

16-12-09, 05:29 PM
my dads doing the battery now so we will find out soon,,, and yh it sometimes clicks when i turn the ignition so u may be right it could be the starter motor
lol @ getting on to us.
Make some sense next time then you fcuking plum.
Oh yeah, no text talk or your Nova won't be the only thing not working. :)

16-12-09, 06:32 PM

16-12-09, 06:43 PM
if its just clicking it probably your battery, alot of batterys fail when it gets cold.

take it from someone who nos mate no txt typing or you will get banned i took everything to heart its nothing personal, and its really not worth getting banned theres to many people here who no what there on about:thumb:
just a bit of advice;)
i had that problem everything worked but it wouldnt start and it was the battery:thumb:
+100 Stroutsy for offering Limp a suck on his plums :)
/\ you just love the gay......lol
sproutsy, take your sparkplugs out and try starting it, if lots of water flies out of the holes your head gasket has gone and hydraulic locked the motor, possibly damaging it.:thumb:

I bet its the earth strap between g/box & chassis leg.
Replace it, the braided brass strap will have crumbled to pieces by now.

lol @ the keyboard gangsta drive by shootings.
Stroutsy, managed to find out the problem? Does sound like a earth issue. Have you checked all your earths and tried another battery? It could be a whole host of issues but you need to systematically check things to try eliminate possible causes.

He is talking to people who understand cars, and explaining things to the helmets he probably hangs around withlol
Just annoys me when people don't make an effort!
Even when im rowing on here I use good grammer lollollollol

to be honest mate, if you cant diagnose why your car wont start, you probably dont stand much chance of repairing it properly, it may be easier and cheaper to ring a mobile mechanic? or tow it to your local garage for a proper diagnosis? not trying to be rude or take the piss in any way, just a suggestion.
i realise not everyone understands the basics of a working engine. :)

This thread is rammed with winning fail. :d
The OP is the type that never listens to the sane advice given. He'll probably be too busy checking tread depth on his spare to try and source his non starting reasons. lol
