Just wondering if anyone can help- Today i have been out in the car driving about all was fine until earlier stopped off at a mates house and noticed steam/smoke (couldnt properly tell as it was dark) coming from the bonnet, opened it up and couldnt see where it was coming from but smelt of burning, left it for around 45 mins went to start it and it wouldnt fire or anything just no response, any ideas what this could be? Thanks

When you say no response do you mean it does not turn over there are no lights on the dash
1st check your engine bay for any thing that looks burnt or melted also check your fulids level and check for any leaks
2nd check your fuses for your glow plugs

There are lights on the dash but just no response from the engine. It is saying eco mode on the clock aswell now. Couldnt see properly last night as it was dark but going back later to have another look.
