I was not happy for long. It seems like the car don't like to come to a new home.
After we change the throttle house I was backing up the car and due to the erratic idle I manage to stall the car and then the engine light began to flash. Now I got the message that it was misfire cylinder 2.
I manage to get the car back to the Polish car mechanic and he found out that the we need to overhaul the top of the engine.
So he sent the engine top to Polen and he also found out that it was a broken piston ring on cylinder two. So I purchased a new piston with rings.
He called my yesterday and was happy to say that the car run fine and that all seems okay.
The only ting he has to do later is update to the latest firmware on the ecu. And check if he can get the idle to go up, because it is to low.
I drew the car home and all seems fine. That was yesterday. Today I took the car out for a spin to purchase some tools, and when I was backing in to a parking space I manage to stall the car. Not once but three times. It's so easy to do this with this car because of the erratic idle.
After that the engine light came on and the car is in limp mode.
Now I have used more money on parts then I gave for the car. So now I don't know what to do. Every time we think the car is okay I manage to stall it and the faults came back. I have not checked with vcds what's wrong this time, but I can image that it is "misfire cylinder two" again.
At least I washed the car and polished it. So if the Polish car mechanic can take a look at it again, I would be happy.
I wonder if it can be the fuel pump that can be defective since it's so erratic on idle. But I don't know enough about car to know.
Does anyone have a clue on what it could be?
Regards
Glenn
