Starting problem back again with my Charged VR.
Mark_H replied to Mark_H's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
Yep, tried that and they was no spark....I rested it against the inlet manifold. Been having a read on the web and I think i'm going for the engine speed sensor. I also have a coolant temp fault.....Wondering whether that might not help either. Code 522..... I think it's the blue sensor I need to change. -
Hi, I need some help please. I have a Charged VR and I have a starting problem. basically, drove the car to work today which was fine no issues.... Went out to start the car to move it about 3 hours later and it started but took about 5/6 cranks before it would start. Moved the car and then about 1 hour later I went outside to go home and the car will not start cranks over fine but will not start. I've checked and I don't think it's got a spark..... This has happend once before and I left it for about 10 minutes and it started. This time it will not start after 10 minutes...... I have plugged

Hi, Just fitted some Mk4 style Headlight and crystal indicators etc and I'm not sure if it's added to the look or not. Got some rears to put on aswell. Plus, I'm not sure where to bolt up the control box for the Xenon as it's very near my charger pipework......

Rear Caliper Sticking - again
Mark_H replied to kempj1's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
Hi, I just replaced one of my rear calipers as the caliper was sticking and was noted on my last MOT. In the UK they check rear foot brake and handbrake performance each side and compare side to side aswell. Mine sailed through the MOT on Friday. -
Hi, Yes, they all seem fine.. Also seemed strange that I blow through the MAF and it was OK. I also drove 40 per miles and it never missed another beat......

Thanks for the feedback guys...I think I need to clean the air filter as I've not looked at it for a while. Thanks, Mark

After the charger. Just got home and took it off to have a look. There was some oil mist on it but that's about it. It has done it once before at Christmas but not since.

Hi, I went to Santa Pod today and the car drove really well all the way down there with no issues. I parked up went for a walk. Got in the car to drive it home and it started fine got about 3 miles down the road at one of the T junctions and it just stopped...... Cranked it over but it would not fire it spun over very quick but would not fire or start I opened the bonnet checked all the coil pack wires, MAF sensor connection, and main engine loom. Tried again but nothing....still spining over quick but not firing.... Got a screwdriver and removed the intake hose off the MAF sensor and gave it

Hi, There is a grommet under the expansion tank on the right hand side as you look at the engine bay. I just ran my loom through there.
