G60 Losing power

[DarnPB]

Shake your exhaust and see if the cat is rattling. If it is, it could be partially blocking the gas exit. I had this once with a Passat. Nearly died because of it too!

Are there any relays in the fuse box that might need changing? My abf engine wouldn't rev properly. It turned out to be a faulty relay?

yeah probably relay 30, ECU relay.

That would cause the car to not even start. The relay to the top left is the lambda probe relay. Pull that out and try giving it a sniff. If it's burn't, its knackered. That may cause you some grief.

The car may still start but it can run like poo and cut out etc.

just reading through my G60 seems to run ok ish, but i dont run a lamba sensor, never have so i would guess that wouldnt be your problem. its not the CO sensor in the intake pipe is it? should get around 400 ohms across pins 2-3 i cant remember the excat figures, but dubforce will. a blocked exhaust would give lack of power ect, tried disconnecting it as far up as possible?

Ok, good... New things to check!

- I will check the Relays for the Lambda Sensor and the ECU...

- Check of the Exhaust system..

- Will do a check of the CO Sensor in the intake pipe. Can someone confirm 400ohms across pin 2-3? I guess we are talking about pin 2-3 on the ecu plug, or....?

Further, whilst I am in there:

Can someone give me the specs of the coil, as well as the HT leads. What ohm readins should I get.....?

My T4 did that.
