Hi all
Just to put an end to this thread, I’ve had ‘Audrey’ > ‘Flipper’ for the past 3 years. Sat in a garage. I eventually found a local mechanic who was patient enough to work on Flipper (Dolphin grey and I nearly had to get rid of her!!!)
But after
Raft of remedial work - from replacement sensors > new fuel pump > wiring loom repair > heatshield reinstallation (which caused melted nox sensor and dipstick issues) I got my car back two weeks ago.
Many thanks to
@Clackers and
@depronman and James Blackmore for their patience and guidance.
I’ve just done a 600-mile round-trip and Flipper ran perfect. She just needs gear linkages adjusting as sometimes she does not like to engage 1st or 3rd.
Andy C was the guy who really helped with loads of invaluable parts & advice - without him I was on the edge of giving up.
My local mechanic in Southport Mark was awesome as others had given up and said she was too much time & effort to repair.
This car also has a few parts from
@A2Steve inc ProBoost ECU.
I hope I finally can say Flipper is back on the road!
Will upload pics soon. Also numerous others have helped here - too many to mention as the community here is beyond reproach.
