Hello I can see a similar question has been asked before but I cannot see a response. I have a holden barina hatchback 2006 tk, my mechanic has now had the car for over 2 months, they replaced the engine due to head damage and now he's having electrical issues, he has had a bunch of auto electrictions and they cant figure it out either, I'm waiting on them to have tech 2 diagnostic done on it later this week but I'm really over getting told its something different every day! Any ideas? Please help! Thanks on advance for your help :)

It will be the engine management system computer. You need the original one that was with the engine you got. I had similar problems with my car. The mechanics sound to me to taking you for the fool. If the car was from an automatic transmission or a manual car you need the sensor etc from your old motor changed over too. Good luck

Have you had the Tech 2 scan as yet, these have common problems with cam angle sensors, they give a lot of problems.
