Cutting Out
« on: 30 July 2008, 23:42:03 »
I was driving along tonight and my car just cut out, after a couple minutes it started back up, after a couple of minutes of driving it cut out again, the problem keeps repeating, the man from the AA said that it could be the fuel pump as it is a common fault on these cars, what do you think?
     Thanks for your help.

Do a paperclip test and post the results... Could be many things but the most common fault on the Mig is the Crank sensor... Should give a code 19 IIRC  :y :y :y

As said, do a paperclip test first.
There is a How to, in the maintenance section ;)

The car in the picture seems a facelift; if so it doesn't support paperclip!

Hmmm... Good point, although I didn't think they fitted the 3.0 engine to the facelift.

[waits to be corrected]  ;D ;D ;D

Thanks for your help, just plugged in the tech2 and got a code 19, just checked fault codes on this site and it says incorrect RPM, and I know that comes up anyway.

That sounds better.
Code 19 is failure of the crank sensor, eventually it wont run at all, so please replace ASAP ;)
