hey pplz, ive got a V6 VT that i cant figure out what is wrong with it, i've stuffed around with a few things on the car but still has me stuffed why it wont go, i've put a new battery in it, got a new a key for it and changed the starter motor as a mechanic told me to do, done those things and still nothing, it'll drain the battery in bout 3 or 4 minutes, the car turns over for about 2 seconds then just cuts out and sometimes it will fire and then just stall straight away and you have to turn the ignition on n off a few times before the starter will go again. was thinking it culd be ignition but im not goin and buying things that i dont need to fix on the thing, if anyone has had this problem and idea's or advice wuld be appreciated. cheers.

Could be fuel pump, the pad the coils sit on or anything really, sounds like your battery is stuffed, get someone to check your fault codes.
