  1. Ok, update, firstly thank you to everyone who has helped, I jump started the car and got it started But... Check engine light is on Red oil can light is flashing Glow plug light (yellow) is flashing I didn't drive anywhere turned the engine off. I don't want to do more damage by driving it. Any further thoughts?
  2. Everyday is a school day! Will let you know how I get on.
  3. I have a battery charger, I'm reluctant to remove the battery due to maybe not knowing the radio code, is it ok to attach the battery charger while still wired into the car?
  4. Ok, that I never knew! I know that the battery is only a few months old but it's a Halfords own one, also thinking that I've been trying to start the car a few times now so will have used more power from the battery. I don't have access to a battery tester, would a jump start from my Landy be worth a go?
  5. The previous owner never had this problem and the battery voltage is at 12.66v. When I try and start the engine it sounds like it is almost about to start.
  6. 100% not the key, it worked fine for a week and then years before that. No extra devices fitted either. It's factory spec. Not tampered at all. I know my neighbor very well, they only sold the car due to getting a company car and didn't really want to part with it.
  7. Thank you, would you be able to explain what I should be able to hear?
  8. Hi, I've actually only owned the car for a week! However I bought the car from my neighbor and so I know the car was running perfectly before I bought it. Yes the car turns over fine, it just won't kick in.
  9. Hi, new to the forum, I've looked through as many threads as I can to try and get an answer but can't seem to find it, so apologies if this has been covered 100 times already! A brief history to the fault: Skoda Octavia 1.9tdi 2007 Car wouldn't start Battery all good Jump starting didn't help Then beeping noise with glow plug light flashing Replaced all 4 glow plugs Low ish on oil (topped up) Car started yay! But with red oil light flashing and beeping Stopped car Car won't re start Tried bonnet catch sensor Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated Richard
