Pulled into a petrol station the other night to fill up my tigra,everything was fine and i did'nt have any worries about the thing!
Then when i went to start it up and drive off it would'nt!
It would try to turn over but nothing would happen,I thought the battery or starter had gone!
So tried bump starting it up and down the road,same thing happened-almost turned over but jst did'nt-also ended up with what seemed like a couple of backfires!
Next i called out the AA,guy done the usual tests and stuff and then told me that the sensor for the timing belt had gone and i needed a new one!
Fine i thought so had the tigra took to my local garage!
Now here is the thing i want to know! The garage rang me up and said that it was the timing belt that had gone and that it would'nt be worth the money me having it all redone!
Who was right-the AA man or the local garage??
did try to find the fault code that the AA gave me but the garage managed to lose the form
