Was just driving my car into town and got stopped at traffic lights.
Then when the lights went green something happened.. where as i went to pull away and the car just got no power at all .. the check engine light also came on! and then it also had sounded like my exhaust had blown. but it's more the complete loss of power my car had.. was just struggling to move at all, or could it be linked with the exhaust at all?
Any Idea's ?
Cheers.

You need to get the fault code read to know for certain. Until then you're just stabbing in the dark.
