Is the engine management light on?
|
|
theres a spanner light comes on when it starts for 2 mins but that all ways comes on when it was serviced 8000miles a go they never reset it . its dew for a cam belt change
|
When did this happen?
|
|
It doesn't have a cam belt. These have chains.
|
|
the car started to play up this afternoon my mate said it might be the air filter got damp there zafria is a2003 model
|
Come on Troy, fess up. Has it been swimming? very deep puddle?

these suffer from vacuam leaks, do a check on all the very small pipes that run from the vac pump to two valves then onto another then on to the turbo they usually split where they change from plastic pipes to rubber ends where they push on the valves,they also suffer from the valves not working/leaking but at £100 each they are an exspensive guess

i will have a look tomorrow thanks

The only time I ever had this problem it was a split throttle cable outer.Terrified me for weeks untill i sussed it.Obvious but something you don't think of.

The air filter drain tube mod should already be fitted on that year.
If it's really limited to 3000 revs, then it's possible that the exhaust has blocked - everything else should bring the spanner light on.

The spanner light isn't the service light. The service light is in fact a 'InSP' message that appears in the odometer display one week or 300 miles before a service is due.
The spanner light is in fact (to quote from the users handbook) an engine electronics, auto transmission, or immobiliser fault light.
As the car starts, you can dismiss the fault as being with the immobiliser.
If you've manual transmission, you can also dimiss this.
That leaves the engine electronics as the problem. Ultimately you should get the fault code read out to determine what the problem is.
