Title: New member with depressing fault code issue
Post by: GrpB Tom on 14 October 2012, 18:15:22

Hi everyone,
New to the group and having problems with a 2001 3.2 Elite.

Main issue is that it keeps conking out on me! Have run a diagnostic and it comes back with 0650 code which I expected as a bulb has blown on the instrument panel. It did register problems with the Cats but have replaced the whole system and that code has not resurfaced.

Of interest, is that just prior to conking out there is a noticeable downshift thud from the gearbox - its not severe but heavier than normal. Also the general 'feel' of the car has deterioated - not so much power, gear changes more often than before and acceleration not so sharp.

The engine has been regularly serviced, The transmission hasn't been touched - ever! Thinking problem lies there.
Did the dianostic on that and came back with 'incorrect ratio' but removed the coil packs (cylinder 5+6 full of oil) and cleaned the sparks, tested it and the code did not reappear. Confused? Oh yes indeedy!!!
Any help would be great.
