Is that a full fat RR or another RRS?

(Fuel aside) that is a lovely engine.  Be aware earlier ones have issues with some coolant pipes and water pumps - if yours is one of these, might be worth pre-emptively getting these replaced when you don't need the car for a couple of days.

Probably one for Mr DTM....

Freeze frame data is pretty rubbish, covering no more than batt voltage, RPM, mileage etc.  Doesn't cover MAP or MAF readings or anything useful in this instance.

So I believe the -84 means its out of range at lower end, possibly short to ground?

I've looked for airleak, nothing obvious on airbox to throttle, and from turbo to intercooler, or from intercooler to manifold.  Can't really check intercooler without removing.  If the signal is out of range, would that imply its a pretty massive airleak?

Visible parts of loom look good.

As a general rule, the fault occurs at low RPM - 1500ish - and under very modest load in my experience, either just cruising or very light acceleration.


I hate just swapping parts, but tempted to try a new MAP/Temp sensor?

Took the RRS across to Oxford & picked up a 5.0 supercharged autobiography in exchange,what a great journey home over 500 BHP and the sound is amazing 👍

That will pull the van ok, at 100 mph if desired 

Might give that a try..😂

Yes been after one for a few months, saw this advertised with a low mileage and excellent service history, such a lot of car for so little money..👍

Anyway i could find out the the what colour of paint was used on interior trim?

Im currently restoring my door panels from the gunky soft touch coating, i did initially scrape it off but couldn’t get a finish im happy with. After taking the door card to the bare bones it looks as though they were painted when new. I want to colour match all trims so its not 50 shades of grey.

Im going to take it to my local paint shop to get them to scan it but they said they highly doubt it would scan, just wondering if theres anyway i can find build data etc.
