    Would you be concerned

    Why would this ever be a worry? You went to see the car, you checked over it, everything checked out, you bought it and you are happy with it. If the previous owner had it for 1 day, what difference does it make? Ive often sold a car after a couple of weeks, didn't mean there was...

    Problem: 197 a little bit 'laggy'

    Hi guys. Over the last few months I have felt that my 197 isn't quite as quick as it sould be. My downstream O2 sensor failed when I first had the car so I replaced it with a Bosch universal sensor. The 'check emissions' warning has come on again and a diagnostics unit pointed the the O2...

    It never ends with this car

    I've had a lot of teething problems in the 3 months that I've had mine. Then, low and behold, the EML came on this morning along with the 'check emissions' warning. I've already replaced one of the o2 sensors! :sleep: I'm getting a bit of a pain in my hole at this stage to be honest...
