Ah super i'll give that a go!

Hey there, Thanks so much for getting back to me! Can i assume that this was the fix for it & the issue is no longer there?

Hey Oxfordpaul, Was trawling the forums & came upon your post about the misfire. It seems I now have the same issue as you (i hope!) had. My symptoms are on light acceleration theres a sometimes severe jolt like the throttle is sticking. Also occurs when you lift off the throttle. So far I've replaced: plugs leads coil pack MAF Lamda sensor. Did you ever get yours resolved & If so what was the cause. The car is a nightmare to drive around town. Motorway is fine. Thanks in advance!

Thanks guys! MAF & Lambda sensors ordered. Heres hoping!

Hi everyone! Been ages since I've posted here but I've a very irritating problem with a kinda misfire with my VR6. Symptoms: It's like a misfiring but only occurs less than say 3000rpm. Sitting on motorway speeds its fine. Only does it when the engine is up to running normal temp. 90% of the time on a drive manifests itself just after the biting point when moving off. Can be very very sharp to the point where the jolt is quite severe. Makes you look like you drive like a bit of a tool! Its nearly like its an intermittent loss of fuel & gives the impression the throttle is sticking. Investigation already carried out...... New plugs, leads & coil pack. No improvement! The car is very difficult to drive around town & as i say its like the throttle is sticking. Everytime you move off it will stick causing a "chugging". Cruising along a say less than 50 feathering the throttle it gives a misfiring type sensation. Anyone have any ideas or experienced this? It's making the car really not fun to drive! :( Thanks in advance!

Can i ask what it went for as i'm looking to move my M reg VR6 on. It's very difficult to price point it as online they go from anything from £2k up...... Cheers!

Yea tyre pressures are cool. Defo something mechanical.............

Kinda hard to describe this but i'll give it a go. There's a dull thudding noise coming from the front. At first i thought i had a puncture but i hadn't. Usually very subtle but can be louder. Happens when out of gear too(coasting). Had wheel bearing replaced as precaution but me thinks its from that sort of area. Has been there for months & is getting progressively worse............ Any ideas or anyone suffered similar? Cheers.

My dash temp gauge is telling me strange stories. On any journey, excess of 100 miles included, the temp never shows more than 70-75. I always remember it to be in and around the 90ish mark. I could see through it if the needle didn't move at all, but this is weird! Any ideas or anyone encountered this before??

Where is the spoiler motor located in the car though???

Spoiler playing up so want to bypass thermo switch & check out the motor. Just need to tell my mechanic where it lives..... ? Thanks!!

Have an on going issue with my battery but it has come to the point were if i don't drive the car for 24hrs it wont start. Have had the AA out to test the battery & it's fine or so they say. Is there any common things that drain the battery??? The alternator is Starting to piss me off!! :mad2: Btw it's a '95 VR6. 164k miles.

Thanks folks. Defo a few possibilities there. Checked the fluid level & it's at the min so that should account for the light........
