Hi guys,
the 1.6 decided to throw a wobbly today, first of all it failed the mot on n/s balljoint, - no problem less £55 and 20mins of my time the fault was fixed and the car retested - pass NO advisorys!!
anyways, i handed the car back to the mrs as its hers, and she goes of to her mums safe in the knowledge that her husband has kept her car in tip top working order.
She then breaks down on a major roundabout with engine fault (if the person who gave her abuse is on here that owns a y reg red punto - dont let me see you - some things i expect but calling her a c*** infront of our 3 kids.... well if i had been in the car.....).....
roll on, she calls the aa and they diagonse the car with map sensor p0105 fault and camshaft sensor fault p0340???!?!?
the car is a 1.6 so im 99% sure it doesnt have this sensor and the map sensor is causing the problems.
the faults were cleared and the car drove home ok she reported.
im gona give the throttle body another clear out - it was only completed last year and the car only has done 5k so impretty sure it will be ok in there.
im only posting this as it has confused me having both errror codes stored, a quick search didnt bring them both up.
in my mind im barking up the correct tree, but as proven so often IM ALWAYS WRONG lol.
any pointers?
cheers
