Abagheshian Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Hi I have recently been having a problem with my zafira life 04 regI have lost all power when accelerating, the max speed I get is about 45mph. The engine sounds like it is clicking when I accelerate but it does still sound like its producing powerWhen I rev it when parked there is a rattling in the lower drivers side of the engineAlthough I believe I saw white smoke a few days back all I seem to get now is a strong smell of petrol when I revAny ideas would be greatly appreciated Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abagheshian Posted July 20, 2013 Author Share Posted July 20, 2013 It's a 1.6 ecotech petrol engine I believe it is a 16 valve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Dabsy Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Thanks, when you say "rattling" is it a tinny rattle like metal on metal or more of a tick?When was the timing-belt last change? ... And last full service? Sorry for all the Q's but if I were there I'd nail it quicker !! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
