Thanks Chip!

Hey up Dan, yep maybe but when I had the dephaser pulley done he did lock the cams and said that the locking tool on the crank only locked in one place @ TDC....but saying that I had the head done at dealers when it was 45,000mls and it just ran out of warranty.... cut the long story short...

Cheers Chip it wasn't the belt :D

Lol Matt the mate used work at reno, and he skanked the proper locking tools before he left ;) now he works for another dealership lol

Update guys Phew its not the engine..........it was the crank senor my mate waggled the sensor connector and the engine started, glad its wasn't the engine, thanks for the help and advice guys :D

Not sounding good then if its new engine :( that's the only vehicle I have :( it just died on me when it hit the rev limiter then the whole engine shut down and I had to pull over as soon as I could, it wasn't a a loud bang or anything chip it just ceased power service light came on and stop...

Lol @ you trying to do the sound effects, yep agree hard to describe in writing lol :p well hopefully my mate should be able to tell, when he has a look ;)

Ok Fred many thanks, my mechanic mate is gonna have a look after work.

Hmmmm it might be a a bit faster than normal when turning over like you said dur to zero compression :(

It just turns over but not firing thats all I know, couple of days ago, had trouble starting during the nice weather we been having especially in the morning lol, so I replaced the crank sensor cause I have read its common and it was the original one the cars 9 year old 04 plate done 81,000mls...

Thanks for the help Fred ;)

TBH it wasn't pulling very well like it used to, after the work had been done :(

:( does that mean its damaged the engine? :S

Pulley locking tool? you referring to the dephaser pulley? All I know he had the proper reno pins and he had the tool for the cams to be locked

Yes he did the locking pins and the cam locking tool, and he had it TDC=Top dead centre

My mechanic mate did the work, it was about a month ago.
