I had the P0087 code fuel rail / system pressure low fault. managed to limp home, parked the vehicle. Could hear a buzzing noise which first sounded as if it was coming from the boot. it was getting dark so decided to leave it until daylight the next day to inspect however the alarm was blaring as of 11pm that night.
Checked the battery with a multi meter and it was flat. Disconnected the battery, recharged overnight. Reconnect the battery then there was a weird buzzing noise coming from near the hpfp this again flattened the battery.
Removed hpfp, sent to the guy on ebay to refurb, recharged the battery again while the pump was away. upon receiving the pump back, refit everything, battery too. Car started then went dead.
Decided to replace the battery as im sure its the original off 2010. Replace with a new £91 battery from eurocarparts. Now the car has electrical power (windows, locks etc but wont start the engine. I noticed the was now a weird buzzing noise coming from the drivers door or passenger door when open and also the seatbelt lights near the map reading lights all flashing on off.
I am at my wits end with this and have spent over £2500 since purchase on full engine rebuild, new clutch, thermostat housing, and now fuel pump refurb and new battery.
I did notice a few weeks ago the drivers side puddle light was cracked and hanging out. upon inspection and disconnection the connector is rusty.
any advice please?
