Missus has just contacted me saying the car stalled several times on the way home. She's made the connection that it was blistering hot (for me that's over 20C) last time this happened. It hadn't done it for a while so I kind of assumed it was a blip.
I'm sure I've read these symptoms before somewhere but cannot for the life of me think what the answer was. Would a failing temperature sensor cause it to stall? Surely it would just assume cold and stick too much fuel in?
Or could the cam position sensor be failing in the heat?
When I get home I'll plug the Nanocom in and see if I can pick up any faults. Probably by then it'll have cooled down and I'll be unable to reproduce the fault! hey ho ...
Any ideas welcome,
Cheers,
J
