  1. true say,will deff save me money in the long run i guess,
  2. i have this annoying prob with my car, sometimes this is what it does (cold or warm start) turn the ignition engine ticks over and then its like it cant hold its tuning, it switches off, very similar to an active immobiliser, if i keep trying then leave it for a bit then it will switch on as if nothing was wrong, then during the rest of the day the car will start or might not again depending on its mood. i have tried changing the fuel pump relay in the fuse box (which i must admit makes the car run much more smoothly without back pressure feeling) Could it be the spark plugs???? cheers
  3. cheers, hope i can fix this myself, cannot do with labour charges!! lol is it easy to change???
  4. Hey guys, i have recently begun to have problems when cold/warm starting my car. the engine ticks over just about and the revs go shooting down and the car switches off, almost like when an immoboliser is in action, after a few attempts i can start the car keeping it revved up or else it will switch off again, once revved for a few seconds the car will then be fine. any ideas as to what she is trying to tell me??? cheers :?

  10. i just bought my first vr6, 1995 - nreg, totally standard, i noticed a problem with the speedo needle, when i drive the needle tends to go looney as in it reaches over 150mph even tho i am only doing about 50mph and then at times it will scoop all the way down to 0-mph, i do not understand what the car is trying to tell me, but it is getting annoying as i cannot go through a speed camera without risking the speed i am doing, only sometimes does the needle show the correct speed. any ideas??? cheers
