  1. Do you know if that wiring powers the washer? There is a joint in the loom casing at that point which has come apart so you can see the wires inside slightly, but they look ok. If there power does run there, I can strip it back and check each wire, but don't want to risk further damage if they aren't relevant wires.
  2. Over the past few months, the screen wash on my 2017 2.0 SEL Drive has had an intermittent fault. Sometimes the motor fires, sometimes it doesn't. It's now decided to pack up completely. The headlamp washer still works on every 10 pulls as specified. Yesterday I put a voltmeter across the screen washer plug on the motor. On first pull, the headlight washers fire and the meter briefly (less then a second) reads 12v before dropping to 0. Subsequent pulls have no affect on the meter. I can only assume I have a wiring issue. The problem first started soon after I changed the oil filter, when I had to push the wiring loom to the side that sits under the filter to gain access. I'm not sure if this is a red herring as I can find out what that bit of the loom controls. Is anyone able to suggest where I go from here? TIA
  3. I'm having a frustrating problem with our 2016 Monte Carlo Citigo. It recently only just scraped through the MOT on emissions. First it failed on high CO values, but just got through on the retest with the max permitted value after drinking a bottle of Cataclean and arriving thoroughly warmed up. When starting off from cold, it will only accelerate to about 2000 revs, then even though my foot is buried in the carpet, it just sticks there for about 4 seconds, at 2000 revs, before it starts to accelerate once again As soon as the engine is even slightly warm, it drives normally. There are frequent misfires registering when cold on all 3 cylinders, but these drastically reduce when warm. but there are no codes registering at all. It also smells strongly of petrol at the rear, but I've been unable to trace any leaks. So far I've changed the following: Battery Spark plugs Engine Oil Air Filter Both lambda sensors My local garage has no idea what's going on. Could anyone shed any light on it?
