Re: I think i'm in shock!!!!!!!!!!
Still want to get codes read
But...........
Drove to Mallory park for the Thundersaloons and the light has gone out
I guess it's like a few cars where you do a few miles with no fault and it resets???

Re: I think i'm in shock!!!!!!!!!!
I had the dreaded "Engine anti-pollution device defective" message on the MFD not that after buying the Coupe; turned out to be a perished gasket between the intake manifold and the throttle body, and it was disrupting normal air flow into the engine (even causing the engine to stall unexpectedly, and to idle at abnormally high revs).
I found that if I made a certain number of journeys (I think it was either 3 or 5) during which the car had not detected the error condition again, the alert would clear and normal service would resume.
Worth getting the fault codes read though.

I very much appreciated the offer, but sounds to me that you own a garage, and would be opening up just for me, and I didn't feel comfortable with that as just didn't sound fairiangt4 wrote:can do m8 yeah, just let me know sort of time so i can get to the garage ;o)plod wrote:If i've got my dates right, i'm supposed to coming up that way next sunday

Re: I think i'm in shock!!!!!!!!!!
The lift pump runs constantly with the engine running so I'd look at this one first, they tend to crap out at about 130k miles but normally sound grumbly when you first turn the key (when it's worn) a new pump sounds really sweet n comparison.Bailes1992 wrote:Technically after the engine is started it dosen't need the lift pump because the high pressure pump can draw it's own fuel. Sounds like you might need a new HP pump
Sounds like it was just delivering enough fuel for pootling along but when you floored it the fuel rail became low on fuel and flagged a fault.
