Took it to Vauxhall £85 said need another 2 hours looking at it at £180 I don't think so it's time to get rid I think 😞

[stuartwallworth]

I had it at a liked garage and had all that work done they just couldn't pin point anything hence why I wasted another £85 to be told they didn't know what it was its just weird the way you start from cold perfect put your foot down great soon as you brake to slow down or stop the powers gone ive even turned engine off then on on moterway because struggling that much uphill

[stuartwallworth]

thanks I thought maybe Vauxhall may have checked these ive cleaned the maf not sure what the dpf is only picked up stuff from all the crap cars I seem to get where are the lambda sensor and exhaust sensor located and is there a way of testing these also not sure if anything to do with it but if I start car and set off I hear a couple of clicks under car then it seems to be powerless

thanks mrf ive unplugged egr and just been for a drive and unbelievably it drove brilliant not a single fault fingers crossed next problem is that the egr was new so what happens now can I leave it unplugged or will it cause issues

[stuartwallworth]

you know im actually gutted I went to Vauxhall

[stuartwallworth]

mrf just said try unplugging egr to rule out which I just have and it drove faultless im wondering now is there a way around this do I need it plugging back in ?

[stuartwallworth]

with the egr unplugged im getting no warning light on

[stuartwallworth]

with the maf unplugged it was worse

[stuartwallworth]

the egr is only a week old
