Hello, thank you for your answer. That really sounds like my problem. Do you have any idea how much it cost you and if anything else has come up since? I have to be honest, I'm a bit nervous about taking my car to the garage. Thank you and best regards!

Hi again, I can really understand your worries! But I can reassure you a little - after I took my vehicle to the garage, the engine start might not be possible was actually fixed. The best part is that it cost me absolutely nothing! As it was a consequential fault with the vehicle electrics, the repair was done as a goodwill gesture. So, don't worry about the cost, it cost €0. Since then, everything has been running smoothly and no further problems have arisen. So don't panic, just take your car to the garage. You'll get professional help and your car will probably be as fit as a fiddle afterwards! Good luck and let us know how it goes! Cheers!

Hi, I had something similar with my 2016 Opel Astra (diesel engine). Same problem when starting, lights flickering and strange engine noises. It turned out that the problem was a consequential fault with the vehicle electrics. I don't work in a garage, but my mechanic checked numerous systems, including the engine, alternator and battery. It turned out that the fault was caused by problems with the ignition system. It's important to get your car to the mechanic as soon as possible, because a fault like this can cause serious damage if it's not fixed immediately. My car had to stay overnight, but afterwards it was back in top shape. Hope that helps a bit! Cheers!
