Ok, here are a few things that have happened to me, does anyone know what the problem could be??

1. Sometimes when im coming up to a junction i put the clutch in and then into neutral. The revs dont always drop to idle point they just stay at 3k or whatever they were at before.

2. I was just driving along last nite in 3rd gear doing 30mph and the temp guage just shot into the red for about 5 mins and then fell all the way back down to normal temp.

3. Driving up a slight uphill which i go on everday to get home, the engine management just came on and the car stopped accellerating (sp). then after a couple of seconds it went off and was normal again.

4. when pulling off and changing gear it holds back a lot, i thought it was just flat spots but i got standard air filter on now and still get it.

5. Three of my LEDs in the dash have all poped as wel as one of my side repeaters, so im thinking its going to have somethin to do with the electrics? also one of the LEDs that aint popped just keeping turning on and off randomly.

6. The car does not go anywhere as fast as it used to. it will not pick up at all (i know its only a 1.2 but it was better than what it is now)

7. When accellerating there is a loud rattling noise coming from the engine. I *think* its only doing it when im in gear rather than reving it on the spot.

Its all just been serviced and MOTd and it went through ok. Has anyone else had these problems and if so what was the solution???

Help :(

It sounds like something is shorting out, if u keep driving it as it is it cud result in a fire being caused! Get it sorted! I agree, if all the problems stated after you drilled through the loom then i'd say that your problem, especially as you repaired it, gives a lot moe chance of shorts or mistakes etc. What method did you use to repair? Did u use crimps etc? how u insulate the repairs etc?

	i dont like taking my car to garages sometime as it can return with more problems than it had originally dur to numpy apprentices, sounds like a electrical/wiring problem. check the inlet manifold isnt blocked, or take it to vauxhall and have it diagnosed. sounds like a faulty connection if the behaviour changes depending on the motion of the car

	the revs wandering around try the temp sensor. it fixed my 1.2 urm.. the fact that there rattling coming form the engine could be sumthing alot more serious.
