I think dooby is going to bring his code reader up for me on Thursday so i'll have a look for the codes.

I will be logging on, on Thursday night whilst we play so I'll be posting 'Live' as we search for the fault.

My car has done 110,000 miles and your right, in the last two and a half years of ownership I have changed ALOT!!!!

Cheers all!!

Here's hoping.

I'm gonna post up a thread on the projects page of everything I've changed and done to the car soon,,, If and when I get enough time.

I have got a photographer ready for when you come to Marham so we can get a black and white R photographed together.

Eek - I doubt mine'll be in a very photogenic state by the time it gets there :-)

Good tips folks - I'll bring spares for just in case:

injectors
temperature sender
thermostat
lambda
MAF
plugs

Keep 'em coming - by my own admission fault finding on these cars isn't my main strength, that's for you folks! But swapping bits over now that I can have a go at...

Cheers, Pete
