Title: Has nyone had this fault code before?
Post by: heavyd on November 22, 2011, 04:02:13 pm

Hello folks.
My car just seems to throw one fault after another :confused:
Just wondred if anyone has had this code before, and how they solved it?

It popped up a couple of times in the last week, I didnt notice anything happen to the car, just the CEL light appeared on the dash again

Thanks Darren.
Looks like yet another chew on :sad1: :sad1:
Hopefully it was when the fuel line came off the fuel filter as when I convereted the km's back to miles, it works out the error was from sunday, I've known it take a couple of days to throw a MIL before. I wonder if the fuel cuts could have caused it aswell. With a bit of luck the fuel system is all sorted and it wont come back again
