Clutch pedal switch. The little white thing on top of the clutch pedal. Take it off and clean it then put it back on. I got the same EPC thing the second day i had the car.

Good shout mate i hooked up the Vagina Com to my car and thats what it told me, but now the thing wont go back in place. Is there a little nut to hold it in place, how is it held on? am i missing something ?

 

[PhilW]

Keep fiddling, it;ll go back on eventually.

But pmsl @ vagina com. Awesome.

 

[Forbez]

Phil, did you have difficulty removing the old fuel filter?

 

[adevtr]

If i keep fiddling, im going to get vertigo! rush of the blood to my head makes my head spin LMAO

 

[PhilW]

Nah tom, was a piece of piss apart from the fact you get a lot of fuel down your arm pit. lol. As soon as you understand the clips its easy.

Ordered a cable last night, 16 quid from vagproducts.co.uk. Not bad is it, paid through paypal so if they take the piss with delivery etc... i can report their ass.


Update on my camshaft position sensor error, looks like the belt is spot on, so its either the cams misaligned of the CPS is stuffed. Failling that i have no idea.

 

[Forbez]

Hope its the Sensor Phil.

I cant work those clips out at all. Nearly removed them with a set of Pliers, but thought better about it.

 

[PhilW]

I got a feeling i broke my original ones off.

I ****in hope its the sensor otherwise its cam cover off and alter the cam position.

 

[Forbez]

Thats what i nearly did too, but was a little worried as my new filter appears to have different connectors.

 

[adevtr]

I think the thread where the sensor fits a bit worn, thats why its isnt staying in place.

I will have a look later on but i am going to bed now because my new dog kept me up 1/ 2 the night the little ****er.

Your problems that you guys talk about in here sound quite major ?

 

[Forbez]

Just annoying really from my point, Phil did have problems, but hopefully his is just a dodgy sensor.

 

[PhilW]

Yeah we're past and used to the common problems so we dont tend to dwell on them much now, like a maf etc..

Tom is gettin grief with his coz he cant get the fuelling right for one reason or another, and mine is just hard work. lol.

 

[STEVEO@CYMRU]

[Forbez]

Steve, there's Steve of Dubusiness in Llantrisant, or Pete at Llewellyns Garage in Gilfach, nr Bargoed.

 

[STEVEO@CYMRU]

nice one dont suppose you have any numbers for them do you mate

 

[Forbez]

Nope sorry mate, i think both are on Yell. Its either Gareth or Steve at Dubusiness is probably your best bet.
