Mirroring injector? They were supposed to be Genuine ones but I’m Not convinced

172 cup. Was running fine and after being sat on the drive for about 3 to 4 weeks it developed a missfire. It had new OEM leads and new ngk laser plat plugs. Eml flashing and then solid, stinks a bit. I pulled 2 of the injectors and found them to be a bit dodgy so replaced them Obd brings...

I’ll be trying the electrics side through the week hopefully and see what’s what there. I’ll post up my findings!

I plugged 3 on to injector 2 and it ran. I only used to gauge if it was firing the pot, but then disconnecting it to see if there was any change in behaviour

I switched the harnesses over between injectors and the wiring it fine.. might just be a coil pack, dodgy lead or plug or something. Just a funny one with there being 2 separate faults at the same time

Update, fitted new injectors to 3 & 4 and cured 3 but not 4. So 4 still misfiring and pulling the injector harness for 4 doesn’t make a difference

Yes all fitted great, again it would be odd for 2 to have become loose..

Thanks, though as above removing the plug from both 3 and 4 injectors didn’t change anything at all

I changed plugs for ngk and fitted new OEM leads and car was running fine. Parked up and just fired it up to go for a drive and it was misfiring from the outset with engine light flashing and going constant. Plugged in my obd and got 300 random/multiple missfire. Unplugged injectors one by one...

Its the one on the left of the reservoir as you look at it under the bonnet that I need. Is that specific to the cup?

My garage called to tell me that one of the pipes on my cup has a small leak as the heatshield from the exhaust has rubbed a hole in to to. First question, without being there to see it which hose would this be? Also is this pipe cup specific?

Can anyone help me to identify this stainless system please? Slash cut tail pipe

So the boss will already sort the angle sensor out? Can’t I use a push button horn steering wheel?

I was thinking it would just be straightforward but having done a search it seems I have a few things to think about, airbags, horns, steering wheel angle sensors etc? Anybody shed some light to make sure I’m not getting mixed up and don’t buy the wrong bits :)

Ok, thanks. what’s a fair price for me to sell it at?

Hi all, Just bought a cup which came with this exhaust. It’s not to my liking so I’m going to sell it, but I don’t know what it is. It’s a cat back though. Any ideas?

Turns out this was caused by leads. Got some magnecor leads on now and she's fine again.

Which wires did you play with near the fuse box by any chance? I had an issue like that a while ago and it was dirt connections at the fuel pump/injection relay.

Thanks.. Are the easy to get to?

My cup has just randomly developed a misfire and wondering where to start really. A while back it cut out and wouldn't restart which turned out to be dirty connections at the 5 pin relay which I sorted and has been fine since. It's also had a new TDC sensor and the plugs were changed 15k ago...

I've read a couple of posts which say just get them from any motor factors, having been to 3 who all say dealer part only (who want £20 for it) where can I find this? A relay should only be a couple of quid! It's a 172 cup..

Took the relays out and cleaned up the contacts in the relay box and on the relay and started right away. Jobs a good un. Cheers

New coil pack installed - no difference. Euro car parts also gave me the wrong (old style) tdc sensor and mine has the blue connector so need to get from Renault and try that. I can hear the fuel pump prime as well. I've pulled the 3 black relays and cleaned them up too.. Any other suggestions...

Cheers, but which is the actuator?

Can anyone tell me which relays are which on a 52 reg cup? And which one is the actuator relay? Thanks Tony

OBD fault codes are reading the following: 0040 throttle potentiometer circuit permanent 0140 throttle potentiometer circuit intermittent 0160 supply +12v after actuator relay fault 1291 ignition coil 1-4 circuit permanent 12F1 idle regulation circuit permanent 1311 ignition coil 1-4...

Just ordered both parts from euro car parts coil £55 and tdc sensor £23 might as well replace both whilst the spammers are out!

Well I'm just sat waiting for the aa now as it won't start at all :( ah well!

Ah ok.. Pain/expensive? Read that tdc sensor can cause the same issues??

And it's now started cutting out. The orange light in the middle of my warning lights came on like the electrical pulse light..??
