Donnas new motor

[t5 pete]

Yeah the rest is no concern and easy work but just need to sort the limp mode my main problem is im just packed out with work at the min so only getting the odd hour here and there which is a rite pain.
And with the fcr showing no fault codes its just a case of elimanation

[shepbomb]

Pete, ill show you how to use vadis/vida and the dice next weekend, that should give a more in depth reading, good luck with this, it would have been too big a project for me

[t5 pete]

I didnt realise vida/dice would have connected with the car but hopefully one day next week i will get it pluged in.
And yes theres litterly ££££ loads to do lol

[MoleT-5R]

Is this car originally manual or a conversion jobbie ??? Pete

[t5 pete]

All original from factory thats whats stumping me as this sort of problem is normally with autos and logs codes but absoutly nothing going to test the tps when i get time then foamy is coming over at the weekend so will do some testing with ecus as his is a v70r

[t5 pete]

Also forgot to add it needs a pair of head lights as the reflectors are extreamly dull and also needs headlight wipers.

[Ettienne]

Is it not volfcr as pre me7

[shepbomb]

It will read codes etc... Just gives very little if any live data, over 2 years since I last played with it, but I also have access to a Delphi setup which will work also

[Ettienne]

I've got vida and had it for 2 years and pretty good with it now, especially when it comes to the auto gearbox side of things, I offer support to a couple of garages locally when they get problems and they do me favours when I need them I,e if I need a ramp etc, they fitted my downpipe for free, which was nice.

I also have a very good code reader for Volvos that will read anything with an obd2 port as back up for the cars vida won't work on especially the volfcr cars.

[Wobbly Dave]

I think I have headlights for x70. I've lost count.

[t5 pete]

I think I bought them off you dave when donna had the c70

[jamesy12345]

Pete, just a thought what about battery cables

[Ettienne]

What about throttle position sensor? Or crank / cam sensors.

I'm sure I read somewhere about it causing limp mode.

Interesting read the j suprisingly the battery is fine and still holding charge but I will certainly inspect the wires

Well the battery that came with the car was far too small so I put a larger one on for u. Looking at that link I posted, the leads can be checked by looking at the condition of ends and checking charging voltage at either end of the cable (battery end and alternator end)

[Ettienne]

It's not fuel pressure, pump regulator etc?

[t5 pete]

Spent a little more time on the silver shed lol
New power steering pump fitted now really pissing fluid out of rack but at least it's quiet.
Tried a 3rd maf
Replaced fly wheel sensor
Repaired passanger front wing and mud flap
Inspected passanger seat power is getting to it but still no function.
And naughty naughty the bulbs were missing


New bulbs fitted now much better


Also the drivers dash under tray is missing so also need a new one of those

Also drove it round back with live date and nothing is a miss
So now just got to wait while weekend for when Foamy comes to try his ecu
