just out of curosity see if your fag lighter works, if i take the fuse out of mine the speedo dosen't work and the engine cuts out if your dip your clutch while driving, other than that when you start it does it sound like the starter is slow, if so the wire to your starter is shagg*d, and burning meaning a new starter is needed, not cheap at a garage. need any more help u2u me. | |

the air flow meter was £110 2nd hand, but if i had bought i brand new, vaux quoted me £280! the crankshaft sensor was £60 inc labour as it only takes a min to fix. wouldnt go bak to vaux tho, they had 5 mechanics at my car, all scratching their head and they even asked if i knew what was the matter with it! i was like i wouldnt b hear if i knew! | |

Oh in that case the wire will be ok and the valve is most probably knackered. | |

its making a weird sound aswell when i turn the key, not turned so that the engine is on, just around once, and its makin a sound near the egr valve i think | |

If thats the case the wire for the EGR valve may have come off the manifold.. | |

i shorted out the correct pins on ALDL connector and im getting these flashes on the managment light 1flash, 4flashes, 10flashes=0, 5 flashes and that loops around and around so thats 1405, my fuel system is the simtec 56.6, so according to the chart for the fault codes it is the Exhaust Gas Re-circulation (EGR) valve | |

Ive got a corsa sport 1.4 16v R-Reg, ive been using it for about a year now, and the engine management light would come on now and again, and i would stop the car and switch the engine off, then back on and it would be fine, but 2nite things have got really bad and the light keeps coming on all the time, and the engine stalls in motion (which is dodgy as hell) and when its idling it stalls aswell, and i smelt a burning smell i think, also the speedo keeps dropping to Zero every few minutes. Any help would be great. |
