Pharskie Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Hey all this is doing my bloody head in. Every now and again, mostly when turning and the auto transmission has knocked itself back to first it seem to splutter in power. It will only splutter for a second or two, then comes back to normal. I am waiting on a new oil light/ check engine light to arrive in the post as as my terrible luck would have it, the check engine light does not work. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this to happen. I thought at first maybe fuel pump or maybe gear box needs a looking at but I just don't know.

Marcus GTE Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Battery clamp loose? Mine shorted it by contacting with the positive terminal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pharskie Posted April 1, 2013 Author Share Posted April 1, 2013 No I tried connecting a friends dash light warning unit and it still didn't work. It's so frustrating because the check engine light is the only one not working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pharskie Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 Ok I'm completely at my wits end on this issue so I will be taking it to a mechanic on Thursday to be sorted. I will post up results so anyone else that gets this problem can refer to this thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Sounds like fuel cut, but shouldn't happen in an auto should it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
