yeah got the car cos it didnt run right and it didnt have and mot. also had a knocking noise when you pulled away. well the knocking noise was a bolt loose on the lower arm which is now fixed and the mot all in all cost me around the £200 mark give or take a couple of quid. so me thinks i had a bit of a result. yeah couldnt believe it when the guy just plugged it back on and said all fixed. hahahaha. all i need to do now is fix a minor dent on the rear quarter and the car will be mint condition.

right. had it put on the computer and it was showing a fault. so looked under the bonnet and the guy spotted a plug had come loose from the dizzy. plug it on and problem all sorted. cheers for all the help guys. neil

well i see a maf on ebay for £10 so i didnt wanna miss out, so i bought it. only a tenner so not too bad. yeah if this dont work then il definitely get it on the laptop. also when i turn the igniton on it say's "in 02" on the left hand digital display. is this a normal thing or is it telling me something?

well i took it round to my mates and his dad said that the car was too old for the plugs he has got for laptop. he plugged in a fault code reader and it didnt do anything. was guessing this is because the car is chipped and the reader didnt like it. so the next step is to buy another maf! are all the maf's the same for each model or does the vr6 need a specific one? seen a couple on there and it doesnt list it for the vr6 also where would i find the 16pin plug that the pc plugs into?

cheers for all the help guys my friends dad said he would stick it on his laptop to have a look. hopefully it will be this maf thats causing all the problems. il keep you posted what it is!! where would be the place to buy one of these reconditioned maf's?

arggggghhh are these cars loaded with sensors or what!!!! lol im based in maidstone in kent are all of these sensors expensive? a friend of mine said it could be the air flow meter, does this sound right? cheers guys

hi only got the vr6 last night. bought it off a friend. he told me it had a problem before i bought it. the car really holds back and has lost all its power. and idles funny and wants to cut out. its ok when its cold but soon as it gets warm it goes like a 1.6 (i know this cos my mate in his saxo vtr was keeping up with me) what could be the problem? hope you guys can help. cheers neil
