  1. Had the same problem with mine a couple of weeks ago and it was the air mass meter that needed replacing......or so the garage said, i just cleaned the connections and it works fine now.

     

    Mine is a VR6 though, don't know if that makes a difference.


  2. The cars engine revs keep dying when i'm just pulling away slowly. When in neutral, the engine revs and idles fine.... also if i just floor it, the car will go ok, but if i want to just teeter along 30mph then the car keeps wanting to stall.

     

    Anyone got any ideas? Was told it may be the air flow sensor, but I thought that would cause it to stall even when in neutral.

     

    Anyone in the stevenage area with the diagnostic kit..inc laptop?

    MacLadds - Bloody excellent! :lol:

    And Apollo440 - Their first album was just pure class

    I agree about the MacLadds... It doesn't get any better than Sweaty Betty

  4. Automatics aren't that bad, I got mine because i was more concerned about having FVWSH and a low mileage... I admit not as much fun as a manual, but not necessarily slower depends on what speed range you look at. My auto does just over 80mph in second, so my 50 to 80 speed i imagine is better than a manual.


  5. Everyone seems to say how good the handling is on a VR6 (although maybe not as good as the smaller engined models), however whenever I attempt to take a corner with some speed, there is immense body roll.

     

    My car is totally standard, and i was wondering if there was anyway of improving the handling without spending a fortune?? I appreciate the C's do cost a lot to maintain etc, but i've only had mine for a month and don't really want to be shelling out a load of cash quite so soon.

     

    All advice welcome


  6. [align=left]Have just bought a VR6 auto, appart from being less fun to drive I was wondering if there was any other performance differences compared to the manual.

     

    All stats I have looked at say the 0-60 and top speed are the same, but I find this hard to believe as the gearing is different.

     

    Anyone know?
