General: - Won't start - Guess the fault code competition

AL5XC90 · Dec 29th, 2016, 19:53

Ordered a code reader, it arrives tomorrow. In the mwan time, heres the story.

Drove 1 mile. Parked. Posted a letter.
Got back in, turned over, wouldnt start. A message along lines of "anti skid temporarily off" flashed up.
Tried again, after 30s cranking the car started. Stuttered then idled.
Weird.
I pulled away. Got 15 yds when it stalled, "engine service required urgent" plus "brake failure stop safely".
Cranks but wont start.
Rolled it to a safe level place to leave it parked.

Since then i have swapped the battery and the fuel filter.
No change. Cranks but no start.
Msgs are brake failure and anti skid.
Oil seems very low, but no warning that i have seen while driving and car is well maintained, service wise.

So, conpetition time. What fault codes will i get tomorrow?
Is the car dead-dead?

Is your car from around 2005/6?

Car has 3/4 tank. Diesel. D5

Its a 54 plate.

Oil only appears on tip of dipstick. About half inch or so.
Added a litre to see if level moves. Will check in morning.

Yep, or the connector block at least.

Out of fun, are the switches in the centre console all sitting securely? Mine refused to budge, then realised that the stability switch wasn't pushed fully home spitting out all the SRS warnings, etc. Pushed it in, VROOM.

Ok. Not quite what i was expecting.
I grabbed an obd ii reader from internet.

Codes returned are:
P0087 fuel low pressure
P0094 detected small leak

It doesnt show dates of msgs and nothing related to the message sthe car has thrown up.

I guess P0094 is related to me changing fuel filter?

I cleared the codes. Same situ. Cranks, no start.
DTC on dash shows half the systems in SET mode.

No buttons out of place.

Use live data to check rail pressure and rpm during cranking then post the figures.
