[QUOTE="jarance, post: 257127, member: 21"] brakdown:- 1. faulty crankshaft sensor.. use to have the car stalled while driving but manage to restart but finally stalled while on the highway. 2. loss of coolant - engine overheating. can restart after cooling down and topped up water. 3. loss of coolant - solenoid valve for hot water to AHU broken - engine overheat. manage to get system running by doing a quick bypass. 4. fuel pump kaput - loss of power and car stalled. knock pump and can it going in limping mode. change pump with another brand as could not get spare part. 5. engine overheating - water pump seal damaged causing loss of coolant. Emergency replacement with plastic type (on highway) but change it back to original when got back to my workshop. All the aboves happened during the span of 13 years of owing the car. [/QUOTE]
