i guys well ive finally got the lovely "beep beep beep" engine fault, this all happened after i had clean my BMC CDA induction filter but i some how think that is irrelevant to the problem thats going on because i ran the engine with out the filter on and still engine fault.
It came on the other day after a very short drive and stays on, later the same day i got in the car to check it out and WOW it had gone. i drove around a little bit being very cautious and nothing. Get in the car in the morning and walla no fault drive a good 10miles ( she was very unpredictable) fill her up with petty and what would you know the engine managment light came on when i restarted.
I took it to a mate who read the codes on an EBOD II system; ( foolishly i forgot to write the codes down !! :bang: ) But what i can remember is it came up with;
- o2 Sensor circuit malfunction
- coil failure
i did a test on the coils and there is no indication of change in engine tempo. so i have ruled the coils out.
well down to the engine running, it starts fine and runs ok for a second or two, but then seems to be missing a beep and struggling to keep the engine revs. seems as if it is getting close to stalling but then regains tempo. exhaust sounds like it spluttering.
well i hope some of you guys have a slight indication of the fault, my self diagnosis of the fault is the top lambda. but im not entirely sure. dont want to go out spending £60 on a new on to find it does not sort the problem.
cheers ppl
