I bought this car second hand(Ex-Telstra car) in December 2012. The past couple of months, my whole car would feel like its shuddering. This happened at sets of lights and when idling. I took it to the nearest dealership (warranty ends in sept '13) for this and also because sometimes when driving my LPG gauge decides I have no gas left, even if full. They claimed that there was nothing wrong with the car and that they didn't touch the LPG side of things as its "not factory fitted", (when I purchased the car I was told it was) therefore not under warranty of any kind. Only thing they said was to bring it back early one cold morning as it could be just because the car is cold. I told them that was garbage, as these issues are happening at any time of the day and on short and extended trips. This also happens regardless what gear its in including in Park, or whether its running LPG or Petrol.
I rang Holden and asked for the nearest service centre with an LPG specialist. When I booked in, they said they have previously serviced my vehicle (under Telstra's ownership) and yes it is Default LPG Factory fitted- WOOO!
Anyway, my car has gotten worse in the past week. The car has been shuddering more violently and for longer, as well as a fast 'click click click' sound coming from the engine bay.
Sorry for the long winded story. The car is booked in tomorrow, but hopefully some one on here has experienced similar issues and can give me some more info. I feel that because I am a female, my concerns aren't taken as serious and treated as if I know absolutely nothing at all about my car like with previous issues with my old car (astra). I want to go in there with as much info as possible.
Thanks!
