Car couldn't Start Eventhough the Battery Was Fine

[CLS78]

Yesterday evening i encountered a problem that i've never encounter before...My Suzuki SX4 suddenly couldn't start....I've double checked the battery was fine....Lights can be lighted up....radio can be on.....air-conditioner can also be on...in fact everything was fine and nothing was wrong.....The petrol was half the tank...However, after cranking a number of times....the engine just wouldn't start....I had to towed the car to the workshop from home....The mechanic told me that the fuel didn't reached the engine to allow the spark plugs to spark the fuel for the engine to start....This has never happened before....

Does anyone knows what the problems might be?....Is this normal or a rare designated engine problems?....Do you think the mechanic was right about what his diagnosed was?.....Your opinion is much appreciated....Thanks

fuel pump problem?

Since already at the mechanic, he did not settle the issue? Looks like fuel pump or check the fuse first....

he behaved as if he knew nothing and not knowing how to fix it....I'm kinda uneasy with this mechanic....do you have any good mechanics that you can recommend?....preferably Selangor or KL area....thanks

Can be fuel pump or fuel pressure sensor problem. So even if the fuel pump still fine but if the pressure sensor already spoiled then that prevented the engine to start coz it tries to protect the engine.

I've never encounter this problem with my other car before....this was the first...is it a normal with suzuki only or other cars can be infected too?

I was adviced not to send to suzuki service centre cos was told that their workmanship aren't that good....so searching for outside mechanics who expert with suzuki

Did u face any symptoms of need to crank longer than usual. Before this current issue occured.
Might be feul pump or weak battery.

Try checking:
- Fuel Relay / Fuse
- If you are keen, unplug the fuel line from the rail and see if the fuel pumps when you turn on the ignition
- This symptom could also be caused by a faulty crank angle sensor (engine perfect but crank all day and no ignition)

Ah very good then, seems similar issue like I've mentioned earlier about the fuel pressure sensor malfunction.
