    My mate had a similar issue with his 2.2 SRI DTI about 2-3 years back, I recall he mentioned it had something to do with the pulley???

    Sounds like it could be what G said. 2.2's are known for that and it makes a helluva bang when it goes. It drives the water pump, alternator etc. so that would explain your lights.

    Parts aren't expensive but the labour could be. There's a bolt that is a to remove as it's FFFFT as per this thread.
