  5. Not been on here in a while! Can you help?

  9. Diagnosing help - rev dropping

    It's under the oil filter and to fit mine an engine mount had to be removed.. Before the speed sensor try the ecu control relay. Cheaper and takes less than 10 secs to fit!

    Think it's quite common. Mine did the same ages ago but it was the fuel pump relay though. I think coils are about £60 but might be wrong.
  17. 2.0 8v (agg) randomly cutting out???

    I know what the problem is!!! It's the engine speed sensor. I took it back to the garage and it cut out as I drove in, they scanned it straight away and it picked up the fault. Only thing is they aren't cheap! Anyone know of an AGG being broken?
  18. 2.0 8v (agg) randomly cutting out???

  19. 2.0 8v (agg) randomly cutting out???

    Cheers I'll give it a go. Any simple stuff i'll have a go at but mates dad's a mechanic so he does most of it. Andy, he went to fit those brakes last week and the passenger side caliper was pooped... Not sure why though. They have been lying around for a while :redface:
