It's a 2.5v6 and my enigne light came on today,had the computerput on it at a local independant and they say it needs the above due to faulty valve/sensor and it will cost me £500. Does this sound right or too expensive,any toughts/comments would be appreciated,thanks Andy.

maggers:
Ther are two motors (called VIS valves) on the manifold which move the variable valves & it will be one of these which are available seperately. A garage with Testbook or similar will be able to drive them manually & see which one is faulty. It's only 4 screws to change one. ;)

andyhubbard:
Hi and thanks, so when they connected the computer shold it have told them which one and does £500 seem over the top?

Llanigraham:
Were they using TestBook or just a fault code reader? It sounds like the latter.

Andy's reply would suggest that it shouldn't be that expensive.

Hi Graham - it was a blue portable comp. about 12/15'' square and a couple of inches thick. I did some research on the net last night and found a new manifold for £470 supply only,so i will contact them later to see if thier price included fitting and parts. It's nice to know it's still a green oval and takes shed loads of cash to keep on the road :lol:.
