Hi All, Me Bus has been an absolute pain in the rear the last couple of weeks loosing power, I have replaced both the Mass air flow sensor and the Turbo boost sensor as they where both showing as faulty, checked all the engine harness to no avail and slowly lost the plot so gave up. Today i took it to Hi-Tech on Telford Way and got a phone call a couple of hours later to say it was fixed, when i picked her up i had word with Stuart who is the workshop foreman there and runs a T5 California by the way, he told me i had Seven fault codes registered in the ECU and all it turned out to be was a broken wire behind the fusebox in the loom. So i paid the bill which was a bit of a shock at £120 i jumped in the Bus and went out to road test Her, to my pleasure the Engine now pulls like a train and has never been so quiet, i am thinking this fault has been with bus since i bought Her on and off as i have never been happy with the power output, Happy bunny or what, can't wait for the Decat pipe and power pipe that replaces the EGR valve to arrive so i can get a cheap boost in Horse power of around 15%.
