406 map sensor......symptoms?
Posted: Wed Oct 24, 2007 2:54 am
hello,
Can anyone help......what are the symptoms of a failing map sensor please?
my 99 V reg has been running rough for ages.....its acting as though it suddenly hits a head wind and then clears again intermittently. The EML light comes on and stays on until the engine is stopped and restarted again.
Also on engine run down there is alot of popping and banging in the exhaust like theres unburnt gases exploding there.
Could this be the Map sensor and if so how do i replace it?.......is it an easy job?
cheers
