Hi Everyone,
Just some time ago I tried starting our MY2005 2.0T (BWA) and two things happened:
1. The engine started as usual but immediately followed by a screeching, almost coughing noise
2. At the same time, the engine oil pressure light came on
This all happened within 10 seconds and I switched off the engine immediately.
Question is what can it be? I'm too terrified to start the engine again (should I even?).
We've got home start so should I just have the car towed to a garage first thing tomorrow? Anything else I can check in the meantime?
Many thanks.
