I have been having trouble with the starter motor sticking in the last few weeks. Last Thursday it stuck and on the third attempt to start the vehicle there was a large bang and a considerable amount of smoke that billowed out of the engine.
There is a hand sized piece of plastic that was discovered underneath the car. It is with a garage now who have told me that the intake manifold has blown but they do not understand the cause. They are currently investigating the vehicle for cause. They have said they could replace the inlet manifold but are unsure whether the same could happen again. I welcome any advice.
Thanks,
Daz
