my friend has a 2013 1.0 ecotec corsa with 37.000 miles that failed to start the other morning. i thought it was the battery as it was very sluggish to start so tried jump starting. even though it was turning over really strong it wouldnt start. he desperatly needs the car got it towed to a garage who diagnosed a failed timing chain. i think the reason the battery was sliggish was because his good lady gave it a good few tries to start it up in the morning. -

LDV Maxus '56 3.2 95 SWB - LDV Maxus '56 3.2 95 SWB problems 25 Feb 2015 (Forum)
Restarted fine though. Sounds like an even bigger bag of spanners now though. Oil light came on and the battery light has been flickering on off for a few days. Im no mechanic, accelerator pedal isnt sticking, battery terminals all secure. Sounds like a possible sensor issue... Finding a garage with a diag machine for an LDV is proving difficult. -

Ford C-MAX 1.6 petrol 2008 - Flashing indicators when ignition off! 22 Aug 2012 (Forum)
When this fault appears, you can start the car, the flashing stops, and the car can be driven, although sometimes the cruise control does not work. The only way to stop the flashing indicators when parked though is to disconnect the battery. If left overnight, and the battery reconnected, the problem usually clears, and may not reappear for several months.. But this latest time it has stayed in fault. The electrics are obviuosly getting their 'knickers in a twist' due to wiring, connection or electronic controller. -
