I was driving down the A14 this morning and lost all power, I was blocking 1 lane and this is pretty scary on the A14, lorries were only noticing me at the last min...:eek:

 

Anyway the AA came out, did what they could but could not find the fault.

 

Rang Zedworld to get the car recovered there and to see about getting sorted this week, arrived to a very welcoming cup of coffee and jam and toast and they did a quick check and found that the mushroom filter had fallen to bits and blocked the MAF, after bit's of filter and plenty of water going through the MAF it was finished for.

 

Anyway new MAF fitted and temporary filter fitted an ECU check and also a trim that fits in the front bumper (to stop the spray getting the filter) and it is now good as new :nana2:

 

Thanks to everyone at Zedworld for your super service and putting me back on the road in excellent time.

glad you are ok and zed sorted but how did filtter get so wet and fall of?

My mate saw at the side of the road this morning saying "one of your lot" was at the side of the road, I added a note in the WAS IT YOU section :D

 

Glad you've got it sorted matey

Lol AA didnt check the air filter. Yeah that happens to the paper filters mate do you have a vented nose panel i cant remember?

The sort of service I get from Zedworld.... another satisfied customer joining the clan !

WOW excellent service from Zedworld :bow:

 

And glad you're ok and sorted :D

Glad Jeff has sorted you out...... But don't you have recovery on your AA plan?

Sorry bad use of words, I rang to inform them that I wanted the car recoving there rather than just turn up with my Zed on a flatbed.. :)

Did you have a HKS mushroom filter by any chance ?

 

The problem with mushroom filters is that they go brittle very quickly with the change in temperature and need to be changed every 6 months to a year.

 

Get yourself an Apexi on there mate. Now that you;ve got a splash panel in place you can't really go wrong.
