#Fabia vRS Help Please#

Featured Replies

Hi

I have recently purchased a Fabia vRS on an 05 plate with 19k on the clock, after selling my Fiesta ST.

Its has a couple of mods lowered 45mm all round,pd160 air intake and it has a remapped ecu which iam not sure what is is but the bloke who I bought the car off was sure it was a revo.

Then drove it back to Stockport from Newport South Wales, what a drive!!:)

I was impressed with straight away far better than the ST.

I have noticed recently that the car intermittently at idle has a slight rumble, I thought it may be happening because the engine is cold but that doesnt seem to be the case as it happens even once the engine is warm. Anyone any ideas?

Next problem........sorry guys.

When accelerating 1st gear fine,2nd fine,3rd fine,4th between 2.5k-3k revs for a split second shoot up 0.5k then go back down,this happens in 5th aswell but there doesnt seem to be a problem in 6th? Any ideas?

Lastly.......promise

Iam wondering why when I open my doors the interior light dosesnt come on. No matter which setting I put the switch on nothing happens when I open the doors and its becoming a pain. I can either have the light on or off, not when I open the doors then go out when the are closed.

If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it greatly

Slight Clutch Slip?? due to the re-map taking it's toll especially if you're not sure what it's putting out??

Dunno on that one either :o

I'll second the clutch theory and add in the DMF as a possible for the rumble.

No idea on the light though I'm afraid.
