- also I had someone try and turn the car over while I listened to the engine and there was a ticking noiseApr 30, 2009
- I've done some poking around and it is a electrical problem with the fuel pump, the fuel pump will only fire up after jump starting it with another cars battery through jumper cables and then die again once the jumper cables are taken off

- No alternator light, it just seems like the alternator isn't getting enough power and dying out but the pump itself is working fineMay 02, 2009
- Also the relay switch for the fuel pump seems like it has been burnt around the three prongs

- so the fuel pump problem was solved but now coolant is leaking when I come to a stop or when idling and it will start to overheat

What engine have you got there? Is it a 1.8 or 2.0?

- Have you experienced any kind of missing or hesitation before it died? If yes it might be either fuel or spark. It's easier to check the spark first.
However, you can put the ignition ON and listen around the fuel tank area for a rumblimng noise...that's the fuel pump. If the noise is here it means that the fuel pump can be eliminated in the process of diagnosis. May 02, 2009
- The best way to go is to replace the relay and put in a new battery and see what happens.

Also check the EFI relay. Replaced that before you try anything else

Is the alternator light indicator on once the " jump start" cables are removed and is the battery up to voltage when engine stopped and key is turned off, should register 12.4 volts.
Let me know

I have a 1995 Legacy LS 4 cyl 4 speed automatic, 201k. I had the transmission fluid and filter changed on Thursday, 12/18/09. It was over full at the time I changed it. Got it back and it ran well for a day. Since Friday, it has on occasion lurched and shuddered trying to get into gear (out of first and/or second). I don't know what it means or what is causing this. Any help is appreciated.

My 1997 peugoet 405 estate has a central locking porblem.The central locking locks itself without the button being pressed. Last week I had started the engine, then got out and shut the drivers door. When I tried to open the front passenger door the central locking shut the doors. I was then left with the engine running and the doors locked. Somehow the RAC got me entry. Also recently the doors lockied while my wife was driving the car! I have now taken the fuse out but this means that the internal lights don't come on, but I can open and lock the car via the door lock!
