i replaced some bits on the car yesterday that i thought were causing the problem,and then re-set the e.c.u so i thought this should've cleared it??

Isn't there a safe mode the ECU kicks into when there is a problem? Perhaps what ever is wrong with it is preventing a fault code showing up ? (strange :rolleyes: )

just a quick explanantion.

car doesn't rev above 3000rpm in gear it kind of hits a limiter.
fine when not in gear but sounds pretty tinnie when at high revs.

i've had a fault finder on it but that reports everythings o.k,re-set e.c.u,checked plugs e.t.c .

any ideas??

cars a 1.6 16v by the way.

cheers in advance.
