Took my car back to MOT station this morning for retest and on the way there was a misfire/hesitation at 4000 rpm.
Idles and runs fine up to 4000 but then its as if it wants to cut out.
Any thoughts much appreciated :y
-
Any fault codes?
Is the fuel filter nice and new or old, manky and blocked?
Was the cemblet timing all set up correctly?
-
Its still at the MOT station at the minute so can't check for fault codes. Fuel filter could probably do with a change. Cambelt timing all set up correctly as far as I know (though I did it myself following the DVD so could be completely wrong) :D :D
-
Got the car back and checked codes. It showed 46 which is SAI (still can't work out what is causing that) and 19. Cleared codes and ran the car again and only 46 came back.
Stuck with this now. :-/ :-/

sensor problem..and cam sensor is #1 candidate imo..
-
Disagree Cem....crank sensor is faulty!
But change the fuel filter

ok here is the bet 10 £ from me ;D :y

Worth checking that the crank sensor plug/connector is firmly in place.
My guess is that (as heat damage to the crank sensor cable has been cited as a cause of crank sensor failure) moving cables around to get the head gaskets changed has accelerated the demise of the cable.

Easy money as code 19's NEVER occur without good reason :y

thats not fair ;D
anyway you will get your tenner.. check your pm
by the way hesitation over 3500-4000 rpm is %90 cam sensor (I double check it) :y
Yes, camsensor will kick in limp home mode and apply a 4K rev limit, so will knock sensors (more common to see these damaged).
Never yet seen a V6 cam sensor actualy fail but, have seen them damaged due to incompitence

So why have I got one with (yet another) new sensor?

Have you tried re-fitting it.....particularly at the block end
-
So are we saying its crank sensor or cam sensor. I;ve always thought that 19 was crank sensor but Cem's description sounds exactly like my symptoms. :-/

if you are getting 19 code , crank sensor is of primary concern as it will not let you go anywhere soon..
with 4k limit you wont take speed ticket ;D :y

that was a joke .. of course v6 can pass the speed limit with 4k rpm ;D :y
dont know the bigger engines gear ratios but on the 3rd sure will pass 100 km limit..
