Air meter
"John Lucas" wrote in message ... MAF? "Pashlipops" wrote in message ... My VR6 was similar. The fault was traced to a broken hotwire in the MAF. Replaced it and the car is sweet, although not as sweet as my BMW 325i. Good luck! "John Lucas" wrote in message ... Have just bought a VR6. It has 127k so was cheaper (I think) at £3300. Had to put a radio on it and a new alarm system as the old immobilsier had been bridged out. I'm happy with the car, but I think it is misfiring at some point, it sounds a bit 'up and down' at higher revs. Any ideas, and where should I get it tuned etc? Is there a Haynes manual for the car? I read a posting that said there is a bush on the gear selection lever that can be replaced - it is certainly notchy on my car. Cheers in advance for any info/ideas. |
