Hi,

First, this vehicle isn't offered in the US, but I will try my best to help.

Is the starter engaging and cranking the engine? If it is, let's start by checking a few things. Take a look through this link and let me know if anything helps.

Let me know if that helps. Also, if you haven't already and the check engine light is on, have the computer scanned to retrieve diagnostic trouble codes.

Let me know what you find or if that link helps.

Take care,
Joe
