flashing check engine light
 

took car out for run last night and when i pulled up at traffic lights car started back firing quite loud.
Took car out again today all seemed o.k went to go home and check engine light came on and went again almost straight away but happened twice in about 5 mins ,it is a 99 v6 type r .
Could some one tell me is this something to be concerned with and what is the possible cause.
Much Appreciated:confused:

Where about's are you? If you're close enough I'll bring some diagnostics along and we'll see what has been logged.

thanks for your help i live in andover in hampshire near newbury!

thanks for the info i will try and read the code tomorrow!

You're a bit too South for me to meet up! If you are around the Pershore area next weekend, let me know.

Is your car modified in any way? what fuel are you running? when did you last fill up?

Good possibility it'll be the MAF mate, there a weak link on the later cars i'm afraid. AFAIK there approx £90 from a dealer. Neil.

only mods ive got are walbro fuel pump and pipercross panel filterand the fujitsubo power getter exhaust which came on the car.
i have been using tesco 99 and last fill up was on Saturday.
