I may have fixed this...... I haven't driven the car much but so far so good.... I cleaned the MAF, the idle control valve and the camshaft sensor.... fingers crossed.. will update if it doesn't cure permanently. -
[moved] V5 rocker cover
gary.scales replied to gary.scales's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
bump to move to new posts window :-) -
Hello, hoping someone can advise..... Do you have to take the front off the car to change the rocker cover on a V5? looks as if it needs to come off as the inlet manifold bolts face to the front of the car..... Any help appreciated, thanks guys and girls And sorry for putting this in the wrong section :-( still havent worked out how to do it right....

Cant see it being a fuel issue, i have done far too many miles and filled up at too many different petrol stations for it to be that. not sure the fuel filter has ever been changed though lol!! not sure if your is the same but when mine is spluttery it revs up slower and wont want to go over 5k revs either.... -

I have had low range splutter on and off for nearly five years now, no nearer to finding the issue, changed leads, coil pack and plugs, no joy, it just does it.... learning to live with it now.... If you do find the issue on yours, let me know please!! -
sorry, cant do the 22nd :-(

VR6 Owners Club annual meet 2011 - Your views ....
gary.scales replied to cabrioman's topic in Previous Events
My views if you want them Myself and my boy had a great time and at no point in the two nights and one full day was there nothing to do, which for both of us was great. We were a bit confused over the show and shine, but hey ho, no big deal and didnt take anything away from the weekend whatsoever. Everyone was there to have fun and chill out and show their cars (apart from mine, it was filthy and I am glad I parked it right at the end!) It was great that quite a few non VR6OC people came looking too. Also what i liked was that everyone seemed to be completely chilled out and there was no shout
