New user Posts: 16 Location: Glasgow/Argyll | Already done this but I'm going to double check this week and make sure the values are good. Checked against technical data that a mate got a hold of last and they were good. | ||

Elite Veteran Posts: 925 Location: Thinking of vvc'ing my Roadster Brabus :-) | Just looked on my Rave, the coolant temp defaults to 60deg, and the ambient air to 30deg. so your 59deg is close enough the 60deg imo, its a bit drastic, but I would try another loom and ecu. | ||

New user Posts: 16 Location: Glasgow/Argyll | Thanks very much for checking that for me. Yeah looks like it could be a loom swap with associated ECU Thanks again mate! | ||

Regular Posts: 113 Location: wigan | My neighbours car had this very same problem from cold it was a pig to start but ok when warm. He had the car into tuning places etc and spent ££££££££s on it but still no success. I was looking at the car for him and asked him to start it up but still nothing . Then i put my finger under the air intake where it goes into the throttle body and noticed a small hole i put my finger over tho hole and result. Worth double checking i think. The hole was only a pin size hole. | ||

New user Posts: 16 Location: Glasgow/Argyll | Just seen this, I changed inlets with another throttle body and it made no difference. Car has since been rolled in spectacular fashion so is due a re-shell and will be converted to mems3 hopefully. Im 99% sure the loom is at fault somewhere but its finding it that was proving a hassle. | ||
