Holden captiva is lacking in power, check engine light comes on and traction control lights come on and decline ascent light on dash shortly followed by service light and a large clunk sound. The motor continues to stay on but no acceleration at all. I have to turn the engine off and restart it. Have been told a few things from different machanics such as sludgy engine, timing chain and also app sensor harness bypass. Have tried cleaning senors on all for tires, cleaned out oil with sludge remover and can not hear any signs of timing chain damage.

Hey mate, I'm having same problems for my captiva 2007. What was your solutions to fix this? Hey mate, I'm having same problems for my captiva 2007. What was your solutions to fix this?

You got ripped. Its a speed sensor. If the error comes and goes then its NOT a mechanical issue nor would the engine need replacing if power comes and goes. If an engines on the way out the performance will constantly reduce not give power some days and not the next You got ripped. Its a speed sensor.

That happen to me and holden said I would need engine replacement then gear box went they replaced that now my timing chain has stretched looks like that's now my fault for one late service other then that I've serviced with them except last couple as they kept breaking my car , I literally pick up my car turn around drive it back for them to fix it .
