My partner has a 09 d40 Spanish built diesel. I have very little car knowledge and he won’t join these places to add posts to ask.
He was driving in the highway yesterday at 100km/hr. The car died whilst driving everything switched off. Pulled to the side of the road tried to start it again, it cranks over for a second or 2 and the small shake/splutter and dies again. Revs aren’t moving over 1000. If he holds the ignition on it will stay on but revs still not holding - once he lets the key go it dies
Is it worth looking at things , is it dead?
