Post by: holddy982 on 25 February 2010, 20:26:26

I'm sure there is someone here who can help me with my 2.6 facelift problem, This week I've done the cam gaskets,cleaned out all breather parts, replaced Hbv,aux belt,timing belt,and all tensioners and water pump,cleaned all parts even rapped black tape round the wires in the right carrier, renewed the aunty's knees, put in the water,ran the engine for a while  and topped up when cold,ran very well (a bit fast now on tick over, hope that will alter after on run out) Very proud of myself i am, got up this morning went three miles down the road to shops,running great it was, came out of shop started car and the engine management light is on, check all connections i could see and what i disconnected during work no change, got home let it cool down and checked again still the same.  Can anyone help me in English all these abbrevs mean nowt to me can someone tell whats what. This car has more sensors and computers than pcworld. plz can someone point me in the right direction. i can't understand, when the car is running well and there is a light telling me its not. Thanks Guys :'(

I don't know what the error code meant, but ,I tried  an off chance and disconnected my battery to maybe see if computer resets and when i connected the battery started my car and wallah then light went out. take it for a run i thought to maybe set things up with new settings , 150 miles on and still no light staying on,, fingers crossed hope it stays that way... any comments.. is it likely that its cured or is there a chance of a relapse. cheers guys...... :D :D ;D ;D :y :y
