hi all
the yellow emission control light has come up on the car and sometimes the car doesn't start and when it does its sounds a bit lumpy and I have to rev it up to stop it from stalling
anyone got any ideas on what this is?
thanks

Have you gone really low on fuel before? I know that can cause the car to run rich which could lead to serious issues = engine
Jay the fuel not low but the car really is !
Fuel rail pressure switch at a guess

Could be a faulty o2 sensor?

Went the RAC checked the ECU one would think it show an O2 fault not a high fuel pressure one ?
I understand the fuel rail pressure sensor on the 8v can be troublesome but dont know about our 8P
But i can see were you coming from mate

I forgot about castle coombe this weekend
the car drives fine and it has been like it for a while, the rac bloke who came out to the car says its all fine and I can drive it how I like
might need the map tweaked a bit so it stops the warning lights coming up

I had a mapped turbo car a long time back and was told the emission light would come on at times, seems to happen when your car is telling the computer something it doesn't understand. So, basically, it could be a case of "computer says - no!".
If it drives ok and you can find no other issues then it might only be a huffy ECU.
