Hi
I have a 53 plate transit, Im having trouble starting it. It started out, being just very tempremental,making a whizzing sound. and usualy rocking the gear stick a bit and trying again got it going. However its now not starting at all. Iv had it in at a garage, They said it was a burnt out starter solonoid and fitted a new starter and glow plugs , all thats achieved is, it now tries to start, it turns over and in the end up still wont start. I have asked about the alternator and battery. The garage said that both are fine, because the van wouldnt tick over if it was the battery and kindoff the same reason for the alternator. I really need it working as soon as possible because i can work without it and would welcome any advice.
If I get a tow, I can get it to bump start, and it runs fine.
Also boot cv joints snapped again after 2 weeks at most. Im assuming this is crappy workmanship, or is it a common problem.
Thanks graeme
