Could having a CAF running from the fog to airbox cause running problems without the correct map on the car? I was wondering if maybe there is more air to fuel ratio which could be causing the mixture to run more lean. Is it possible or should the ecu correct the increased air flow??
Anyone heard of a steering rack for the 172 with the etching K & E on the underside?? i dont have a sticker label, probably come off ages ago but have only 2 etchings. I know the normal ones are SMI and TRW and another 2 others but have no idea which one mine is????
i think its broken inside the insulation so theres no way of me knowing where its broken unless i just cut it and guess and i dont want to cut it in the wrong place. Its tricky to know where to cut it
Hey,
Think i've found the problem thats been annoying me for about a year but needed some advice about how to fix it. I think the air flow sensor on the inlet (not the map one) has a break in the wire at the loom end. If i move the wire about the car will drive s**t from the sensor not...
Hey,
Am i right in thinking that the axels shouldn't be turning when in no gear? When i take wheels off, up on stands the passenger side turns when cars started. Then when i put into 1st the same happens but only drive with the passenger side not the drivers side. Anyone with any ideas what it...
yeh mine was the same, £42 with 3 year warranty. amazing how different the car feels with a new battery. Any ideas on what your CCA's are on the batt jenic?
thats just it i can't even start it. the xenons wont turn on neither, just flicker then go off. gonna try voltmeter tomorrow but had a new battery a couple of years back
i have this exact same problem today also. thing is i've driven my car a few times today but now it bearly opens the central locking. thing is rstuner says i have 13v coming from my batt but nothing when i turn the key?!?! :S
yeh maybe thats what i'm thinking of then :S u thought about getting an rs? i used to have a 1.2 old shape clio before & the change from that to this is mad. would like a 197 though, had this one for a while now
lol yeh i drive down the seafront everyday to work and home. i live in the garrison. i'm a postie so always about somewhere lol, what colours your car?
Hey all, When i touch coilpack ht lead 3 at the back when the cars running i get a shock from it. Is this normal or is my lead knackered? Been having some running problems, slight hesitation when driving at around 2000rpm. Any ideas?
Ok after testing to see if the 172 was running lean and not getting anywhere i now suspect maybe the lambda sensors need changing. I think the rear might be ok so won't need to be changed but going to change the front to see if it changes anything. Are the sensors the same front & rear? Found...
Hey all, i have a feeling my car is running too lean after its been warmed up. I can feel it when i drive through the revs too, kind of like its holding back a little every now and then. Whats other peoples fuel trim learning on when they connect to the live data grid?? mine got a fuel trim...
