Yesterday evening i encountered a problem that i've never encounter before...My Suzuki SX4 suddenly couldn't start....I've double checked the battery was fine....Lights can be lighted up....radio can be on.....air-conditioner can also be on...in fact everything was fine and nothing was wrong.....The petrol was half the tank...However, after cranking a number of times....the engine just wouldn't start....I had to towed the car to the workshop from home....The mechanic told me that the fuel didn't reached the engine to allow the spark plugs to spark the fuel for the engine to start....This has never happened before....

Does anyone knows what the problems might be?....Is this normal or a rare designated engine problems?....Do you think the mechanic was right about what his diagnosed was?.....Your opinion is much appreciated....Thanks :adore: :adore: :adore:
Try checking:
- Fuel Relay / Fuse
- If you are keen, unplug the fuel line from the rail and see if the fuel pumps when you turn on the ignition
- This symptom could also be caused by a faulty crank angle sensor (engine perfect but crank all day and no ignition)

Did u face any symptoms of need to crank longer than usual. Before this current issue occured.
Might be feul pump or weak battery.

Ah very good then, seems similar issue like I've mentioned earlier about the fuel pressure sensor malfunction.

I was referred to a mechanic in taman mayang, PJ....he's quite an expert....he told me what was wrong and advice to only fix the particular problem only and not other unrelated stuffs...good job done and he's very honest with his work
