Right I'm really p1ssed off now.

 

After waiting 6 weeks for my PTU and Temp sensor (with harness) to arrive from Texas.

I finally got them this week and fitted them on Sunday along with a 3k oil change (3k miles not £'s).

I disconnected the battery before I started and it took me about 3 hours overall (Tea breaks, lunch breaks and nosey neighbours accounted for about 2 hours of that LOL). I know that my ECU is relearning, I also ran Diag's before and after and got 55 both times.

 

I was convinced that it was the PTU as I thought it was misfiring but now realise that it seemed to be choking or hesitating. I had a misfire yesterday from not connecting the PTU up correctly (connector loose) so it was only firing on 5. A misfire is very obvious (loud and precise - sounds like an old Yank car) and it seems my problem is not a misfire.

 

Do you think a colZult will show up my problem ?.

If so, does anyone have one that could run a diag on my car for me ?. Obviously I will travel to you. And sort you out any costs etc.

My garage is trying to tell me it's the knock/Det sensor, but I'm not having it.

 

Or can I buy one of these ?. How much where from ?

Thanks

I have one and I'm not far from you - about 15 miles from Harlow

Nice one;) Stu am sure Andy will find the problem he is a handy little ant to know:D

Top Man !!!!

Andy,

When would be best for me to pop round (if that's ok with you of course :) ) ?

Weekend would be best, but can do evenings if you're desperate.

I also have a spare MAS !

 

Email me and we can sort out the details

What can I say.... you the man !!!

How about Saturday ?.

Will the conZult show up the MAS if it is at fault ?.

The problem is not consistant. It seems to just start hesitating and jumping a little when it feels like it. Will the conZult show this up ?

 

What do you drink mate ?. JD, Vodka, beer, Cash ?? I have to bring something up for helping me out.

Yeah, you went home at half time too - I stayed for the rest of the evening and my head hurt the next morning !

Too right - they've got dead horse (gelatine) in them and I'm a veggie so I don't touch them !
