  1. Has all the symptoms of mine cept the cutout is momentary, like a second, and car runs fine... All the research on the forum pointed to camshaft position sensor and that's what code came up, its on order, cheers Ewen, hopefully solve the issue...

     

    Brendale, have the code read to confirm but probs just this... Cheers...

  2. If going over to the Ring, best advice I can give is have a healthy respect for it, go have fun and seriously don't push too hard, as said before me, Xbox (or better still video) gives you an idea of the layout but it takes lots more laps than you can do in a few days to learn the little things (how rutted and bumpy the right hander before he karusell is for one), just enjoy and keep 6 on your mirrors. Your twelve minute or whatever it is first lap will feel like half that... Best burger is to be found at the snelly just at Adenau bridge and for further travels your a stones throw from Spa... Have fun and mind post pix...

     

    Cheers..

  3. Well, finally got round to reading the codes, I guessed it right...

     

    P0340 - Camshaft position sensor problem (B1)...

     

    Shows the good info posted on the form lead me down the right route...

     

    Got 2 ABS fault codes too but there possibly symptom of the first one...

     

    C1109 - Battery voltage out of range...

    C1130 - Engine 1 fuel cut system fault..

     

    Just thought I'd post, now to research a) where is it and B) where to get one...

     

    No rush, ahm skint on the account of goin racin wi the wee man... It costs a fortune just to be a pimple on the arse of it...

  4. :lol: . It's a real pain taking the tax disc holder apart, started off with 5 micro screws, now I'm down to 3 :) and it has to be wedged between the window and the dash now.

     

     

     

     

    LOL... Ditto...

  5. Similar to RobPhoboS except for discs, PFC front disc, DBA T3 rear disc, PFC 01 font pads, Ferrodo DS2500 rear pads, Hose Technic lines, Motoul RB600 fluid, all from Clark Motorsport...

     

    Better heat dissipation and more aggressive stopping power with less fade... Well worth it...

  6. Get a tin of Metaflux and don't spare it... Try a pin punch to remove the bolt, it is good stuff and works, failing that then drill and extractor. Even once the extractor is in place, use a spray or good old oil from a can and work the stud out and in, out and in...

     

    Good luck...

  7. Been there...

     

    Go for a full P3 service anything old fluid wise replace and as well changing the plugs just to get them out and a new set of belts... If the handbrake has been left on then that will need stripping down to free up and adjust... Just give anything rubber a wee look at for perishing as well...

     

    See Ewan at Clark Motorsport, he supplies everything you need and good advice as well...

     

    Nice one on bringing her back to life...

  8. Strathclyde...

     

    On way to work today and the slip light came on and stayed on the VDC was lit anyway (don't use it)...

     

    Have had this happen a long time ago when all three lights came on and it went into limp mode but the car ran fine today, think its just a sensor problem...

     

    Will get code read and report...

     

    Thanks for the offer Paddy...

  9. No no no no...

     

    The car has been off the road for a year and a half (cant believe I'm going through this), that was its first drive since its been put back on he road after driving about in a Trait Jumbo...

     

    Ok, to make it easy original post should read...

     

    Went out for the Z' first run since its been of the road for a year and a half, spent ninety quid on fuel and used the lot in a shot space o time, its an addictive car and fun...

     

    The Kid got it in one... Simples...

  10. Well, suppose thats something I will need to get done but was just asking for the thoughts of those in the know...

     

    Maff sensors and crank position sensors seem to cause similar effects, no? Hence asking before investigating one or tother...

     

    Ah'v calmed down a bit, effin panic stations earlier, like, feck, ahv killed her...

  11. Sorry, probably the wrong place but theZ just cut out...

     

    Came home after a quick blast parked up, went to move it two minutes later and no start...

     

    Have done throttle reset and the throttle body reset but didnt get the ecu bit right, car is running but check engine light is on...

     

    Pointers in the right direction appeciated...

     

    Cheers...
