Hi, I bought a 2000 model, 1.6 Bravo Sx In a reasonable condition. I had lots of problems with the engine sound runnig, also exhoust leakage. But I still have some problems.
Like
1) Engine does not run smooth, It runs like a diesel engine, lots of sounds coming from the engine.
Firts I tought that the sound came from the exhaust heat cover. I toke it, sound was gone a little but it still make sound. And engine starts to vibrate after around 3000RPM.
After that we checked the timing belt and synchronization of cams, both cams are in good condition and synchronization is perfect.
but in sipite of that car has grate accelaration, and tork
Is it supposed to be like that? runs vibrating
2) After we opened the bonnet I saw that My TDC/crank sensor cable has short-cuts in three different places. The engine didn't want to run for a while. I chanced the cable. and erase the error from the ECU with diagnostic tool.
For a while I tought that a misfiring spark plug,coil or broken injector, may couse the vibrating but the diagnostic tool didn't show any other errors.
I chaned spark plugs 6000km ago.
Is it possible that diagnostic tool cannot understant a broken coil or injector?
I didn't go to the service I admit! but my local car service says it is nothing to worry about. But I saw many engines running without any vibrating.
Now today after my father used the car for shopping. I want to drive a little. But the car doesn't want to start. If i don't push the throttle and turn the key,it starts, RPM goes to around 2500, and come back to 900 then stops. If i push the throttle a little bit and turn the key,it starts, RPM goes to around 3000, and come back to 900, and stays there. I opened the bonnet again and it was like hell, temperature was very high, but nothing was melted I think the IAC was broken or butterfly got jammed.
now i will try it with cold condition.
Anyway It's long story about me & my bravo, thank you for reading up this far.
Bye
