took my car to the scooby dealer today has i'v been getting a flashing/solid cel light on, and a squeal from the turbo at 4500, turns out the squeal is my boost guage, sure enough, i disconnected it and no squeal,so that was that sorted, but the history on the cel says it had misfired on all four cylinders at some point, i think it still does, if i get to about 4000 it stutters a bit then pulls fine, does it in every gear, could this be the chip or remap it had, has anyone else encountered this problem??

Check the plugs/coilpacks.
Who did the chip/remap as it may be worth speaking to them.

not sure, it was before i bought the car, il try and check the plugs, not the easiest things to get to though

but at least you can check them yourself for free

I would try to find out what has been done to the ecu.

cheers yeah il give them a bell, wouldntve thought all the plugs are dodgy, may well be the coil, any ideas where it is, only had a scooby a few weeks and not very easy to get to things, had a tiger kit car before, 2.0 litre ford engine, very easy to work on in comparison

Well anything is hard to get to compared to kit cars

Drivers side just remove the airbox
Passenger side shift the washer bottle to the side

This is how i did it on my classic

just had a quick look, seem ok, but will check properly when its not raining, the way the weathers going could be next year (if we're lucky)
