if you read them, clear them and then read again..only the current ones will be logged and then it's fairly easy to find the issue!

well wen it was in garage they changed hall sender(fuse 30 or something i dunno) and the fuel relay. but it seems lik its a fuel cut out that happening lik if there is a switch lik on turbo cars. but i will see what crank sensor looks lik! any idea of how to find it as there are loads of sensors?? plus a guy i no said it could be a blocked cat.

use my location guide...(excuse the engine its cleaner now!!)

the crank sensor is behind the oil filter housing/engine mount as quite a pig to get at!! but check the wires as this seems to be quite common too. The hall sender is fixed to the dizzy, and I gues the swapped the ecu and fuel pump realys??
have a look in the maintenece section here as there is a few guide's on common faults (some really good ones and mine!! :wink:)
