Hi,
My car does not seem to idle properly when cold. Its ok once up to temperature.

It is almost like it is about to cut out.

Any ideas ????

 

Maybe the MAF sensor on it's way out.

Cheers,

Wrexy.

 

Wrexy,
Would this have anything to do with overboost/hesitation ?
I dont know too much !

Cheers

 

Sorry m8 I don't know either. Basically I'm learning symptoms and remedies from this forum. And usually the idling problem you mention is due to the MAF, from what's been posted on here previously.

I don't think a Faulty MAF would cause overboost, but it could cause hesitation I think.

Anyone else like to add to this?

Cheers,

Wrexy

 

plugs...
I had MAJOR hesitation problems and it turned out I had Justy plugs in .. only problem is there a friggin pain in the @rse to get too.

other option is cambelt timing but thats douptfull.

 

Mmmmm,
I have just changed my plugs (last weekend).
i do have a HKS induction kit fitted though (MAF) ???
How about the coil packs would this make a difference ?
Its a big problem for me because I dont know where to start also I dont want to start replacing bits that dont need it..!

 

Or maybe someone could plug something in to my ECU and look for fault codes.
I have been told that this can be done at home but I'm not sure how to do it.
Any help on this would be gratefully received. At least I could start a process of elimination.

Thanks
