Hey Alex
New OEM plugs fitted (2000) approx, miles ago, changed from Nology plugs as they where throwing up a fault with the intake runner, as soon as the OEM plugs were fitted the faults cleared all was good then.

Was out testing there now, the only needle that drops is the RPM one, the rest stay up, the speedo tells me my speed ok, fuel gauge ok, plus temp gauge ok...
Is there any logs I can run for testing or to rule anything out, any basic settings needing done?
I now have a stinking smell that blows the heaters when the car is stopped, but seems ok when driving!
Only from the weekend have I started to notice this.

I find the car is driving the very best bar these few problems :signLOL:
At my wits end guys, just not to sure where to start now! :fighting:
All help is gratefully appreciated :notworthy:
rich83:
It didn't bounce... It was like I had turned the ignition off and back on. No fault codes stored
rich83:
Mine it still doing it. Gets to 5000 rpm and sh*ts it's pants. An error has been thrown up for the engine speed sensor.
scopes:
Could a faulty downpipe lambda sensor cause any of these problems????
