VR6 engine starts and fire but then dies

Recommended Posts

Hi

 

Yesterday, I went out to drive the C VR6. Started the engine - cranked and fired OK - then rathern than settling to idle revs just dropped to zero and engine stalled. Tried a few times and it repeated the same, even pressing the throttle to keep the revs up. Went back to it a couple of hours later, same again but the second try it fired up albeit a bit lumpy.

 

Today started OK and drove pretty well OK. Seemed a little uneven, but accel OK and mpg OK.

 

Any ideas?

 

Cheers

Did it seem to be running normally for the few seconds before it cut out? Sounds like classic immobiliser problem...

Immobiliser definitely. Hit the search... the trick for fixing the problem has been documented many times :)
