Leftoutside 0 Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Ok so lately the Vr has developed a few niggles which are getting on my nerves. Firstly on startup - turn the key all the electrics engage but no turn over, pretty sure this is a stick starter motorSecond when under breaking, usually it cuts out leaving no power assisted breaks which can be a bit scary usually only at low speeds not a hundred percent what this problem is but I think it might be a fuel relay problem? Any help appreciated Link to post Share on other sites
Leftoutside 0 Posted March 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Forgot to mention that it does eventually turn over and runs fine either hot or cold. And similarly withe the second problem usually no problem restarting. Link to post Share on other sites
Leftoutside 0 Posted March 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 Ok so yesterday i got stuck at the cinema cus it refused to start but fortunately some burley welshies decided to give us a push, the bump start was definitely what it needed so the starter motor is definitely stick, shall be replacing that but the second problem still stands any ideas?

Bigjobbo 0 Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 Cutting out could be a throttle body clean, they usually cut out when you come off the throttle, as the build up blocks the idle air inlet. Check your earths, and put 12V direct to the starter before you change it, if it turns over every time, it could be ignition switch or immobilizer. Link to post Share on other sites
