just because u go to get teh test done there, dont mean u have to ahave the problem done there!



like u sed u take it to another garage when ya know what the problem is!

go to vauxhall to get the test done cos i have had mine to agarage before and they shown no fault codes even when the EML was coming on!

GO TO VAUXHALL!
its the same price as anywhere else anyway

hehe yeah. only dreading their responce :rolleyes: can normal garages do the same tests? only when i went to vauxhall before they quoted over £600 to fix a problem...

i took it to a local garage and they fixed it for £350!

its only £25 + vat to put it on the machine at vauxhall!

take it there!
no guessing then!

i know but atm im on £40 per week and really cant afford to have it looked at atm. looks like i might have to take it off the road if it doesnt improve :(

u can get a code reader if u dont want to paper clip it


edit
or you could leave it the engine wont work at all and itll cost even more money to get it towed to vauxhall

cant expect a car to run forever and never cost you any money

damn, all costs money though. i dont fancy doing the "paper clip test" so i guess that means i need to take it into vauxhall!

see what fault code is logged

used to have a bit of a problem when the EML came on all the time, it gradually got worse and now is getting out of hand... when getting to around 3,000-4,000RPM the car becomes extremely sluggish and if i dont take my foot off the accelerator the EML will come on and not go until i take my foot off or change gear. this is now happening every single gear change and sometimes i cant even get more than 10MPH out of first gear because of it.

any ideas? if you need to know i have PVD BFO cone, Peco backbox and 15" wheels.

cheers...
