Existing problems observed with car:
Latest Major problem:
- idle revving between 700-1000rpm
- when driving cold, engine light comes on - i turn it off, turn it back on and it's ok after that
- when cold, there'll be a whistling noise at the same rate as i step on the accelerator (only for first 2 - 5 mins)
- sometimes takes a while to start car as (chugs into life)
What mechanics say:
- Last Friday, took about 5 seconds to start car from key-turn
- drove 2 mins and engine cut out
- wouldn't start for next 10 mins
- managed to drive it around to the mechanics
Has anyone experienced similar problems?
- Sent CPU away for error code reading and CPU testing
- Faulty CPU - heats up and shuts off fuel to engine. when cold, will start again.
- At the moment, trying to fix that particular part of the CPU
- However, a new CPU will cost me $1350 from Holden
Is there a cheaper alternative to a new CPU from Holden?
Is this mechanic shtting me?!
Can anyone offer any other solutions?
Cheers,
Tony
