I have a 2010 3ltr Turbo Diesel Holden Colorado, when I start it it will only run for about 5 to 10 seconds then the engine cuts out, my mechanic has checked everything on the fuel system and has replaced a few things but can not find a fault, it isn't bringing up any codes and the pressure on the fuel rail appears to be fine, have you got any ideas on how I can fix this. Is it likely to be electrical?

Blinkers and hazard lights have stopped working. All fuses look good. Any ideas re a blinker relay or where it might be located?

It's highly likely the vehicle has developed a fault within the electrics so would recommend to take or even tow the vehicle to a holden australia workshop or perhaps a reasonable auto electrician workshop may be able to help.
Some ultratune auto service centres are alright as well.

Hi Dot.I have a 2008 model.mine doesn't have an off switch either,if you push the volume button, that will mute it,push again in unmutes it.Hope this helps. Hicky
Thanks Hicky, it looks like they simply don't have one, I have a friend who has a similar radio with the same set up. What a waste of power. Thanks for your answer.
Push and hold the “mute” button and the unit will power off, same again to power on.

Can you advise of any rear brake problems in MY 2009 RC Colorado crew cab 4x4 auto 3.0 VCDi? I have just had the rear brakes replaced for the 4th time. The vehicle has only done 118000kms, tows an aluminium 4.75m boat on average twice a month (approx 40 kms per trip), only off road has been on good gravel (minimal). The owner of the brake service company refers to the fact that the shoes are much thinner than they were in the past & says that Rodeos & early Colorados were r4nowned for bake problems.

Hi have a Holden Colorado 2011 ltz lately every time i go to start the car it does not start on first turn but if i turn the key back and turn it back it will start, i have taken it to the Holden dealer with the complaint but this problem is intermittent so all could find was the starter motor so $900 Later i still have the same problem,i have all so had the key module undated and new key fitted as they found a fault in the key reader that cost $1200 so this is becoming expensive but i tow a caravan and need to find the problem. Any ideas?

Hi John.is it a diesel ?
yes 3 litre turbo
Hi John,diesel engines rely on heat,not like petrol,glow plugs heat the cylinder.where petrol engines rely on spark.i have found that if you turn the ignition on then off at least 3 times, especially in cold weather,it works,plus it heats the cylinder.ie.warms the fuel,it has always worked for me and many others,if you, like you can call me on 0424 745 252.thanks mate.hopefully this will help you Hicky.

Hey guys I have a Holden Colorado 3.5 v6 petrol duel cab Ute tray back. 2009. Having a few issues.
Engine murmurs in neutral as if timing issue. Loss of power I keep cleaning throttle valve body which improves it but then it drops after few weeks. changed plugs any suggestions? I change oil every 5-10 k

Hi Dave,Might be the air flow meter? a unit between air box and throttle body.electronic thing that tells the computer how much fuel to feed with the air ratio,,if faulty,does cause it to play up,from my experience in petrol motors,see how that does.Hicky
