  1. Thanks guys for your help. Paul, things are all pointing towards the TB. Will swap another car's TB on it and check it. If it works will get the TB replaced.
  2. Throttle body has been cleaned for this problem. But no joy...
  3. Checked the Diagnostics. Getting error code: 1) 17705 2) 17579 P1171 Angle sender 2 for throttle valve drive G188: implausible 3) 17972 P1564 Throttle SPoradic: Valve Control Part J-338 Insufficient Voltage during basic setting 4) 17967 5) 16684 P0300 Random Multiple Cylinder: Misfire detected All cylinders are misfiring. Any further suggestions after looking at the above.
  4. Thanks. Definitely sounds right. Update to the problem, I just did a longish drive on the car (its my cousin's car), and the car definitely reacts like you said. Also I throttled up the car in neutral, and the engine first cut off at 6000 rpm and if i let off a bit and press the pedal again the engine crosses the redline and hits 7000 rpm + at the end of redline. Also if I acclerate gradually then the problem at 3000 rpm does not occur.
  5. Hi, I have a MK1 vRS, which I got remapped recently (The guy tells me it was Custom Code remap) I have now been experiencing a strange problem. If I go full throttle the car shudders and jerks crossing through 3000 RPM to 4000 rpm. The engine shuts of sometimes as well . I have had the fuel pump replaced twice. My mechanic feels its the clutch, although the clutch feels fine and doesn't seem to slip. The mechanic suspects the cat converter as well. He felt that that is choked, so got that replaced yesterday, but the problem is still there. There was an EPC light sometime back, which was traced to a faulty sensor in the exhaust. Anyone has any ideas regarding what it could be and does someone suspect that the Remap is a bad one?

    mostly Rock, Queen, Def Leppard, GnR, etc... Lot of Techno and Trance...
  7. feels like pad sticking to me.the pedal is soft unless i give it a solid press.does a caliper need changing?
  8. I've been getting this squeak, much like brake squeal from my vRS of late. The sound starts right after I have applied brakes, and continues as long as the speed is low. It goes away at high speed. The sound increases if I keep the wheel slightly turned to the right. Any ideas what it could be?
  9. SAM My real Name is SAMEER Evaluate that please
  10. Never heard of the UK....what do UKiites look like??
  11. Yea...but who would tell them that . Poor guys...finally lay their hands on a virgin (and I'm sure they are out of virgins up there, they just introduce them to nice ladies from bangkok), and the SOB realises "damn my balls were vaporised in that suicide bomb attack"
  12. The special heaven thing made me consider the assumptions of the muslim terrorists. Assuming that the "Martyrs" do get to go to the special heaven and have numerous virgins awaiting them, how exactly does this develop further. I'm sure these guys thoughts towards the virgins are less than honourable, otherwise why seek the virgins. And once they play out their fantasies, the virgins will not be virgins anymore, what now?? Where would they find a never ending supply of virgins?? And what about the poor souls who come late to the party, with all the virgins now being non-virgins...what are they going to tell them..."Sorry son, the virgins are exhausted, we can let you have that one for a 100 quid an hour" Puzzling situation that... I need a beer
