Title: 2.5 V6 Losing Power
Post by: pfj101 on 11 June 2008, 19:32:12

Hi folks, not been on here for a while, but that time for consultation again has arrived. :(
My 2.5 V6 has started to have power fluctuations, sort of intermittant cutting out, this corresponds with interference on the radio which leads me to suspect electrical. Dis pack a possibility? Would welcome any help you guys & gals of course can offer. Cheers,

Phill

Thanks for that,

The codes are as follows;

12 - Start of test?
145 - ?
144 - ?
31 - No RPM?

Anyone make any sense of that?

Thanks

nothing there (14x are immobiliser).

Check out HT side, also ensure filters etc are renewed.
