Problem After P008 and P017 Recall Work
Well I just got my car back after having the work done. While driving home it now feels like the engine is surging. It's hard to describe but when you give it full throttle the car is giving full power then not all the way up the rev range.
Anyone got any ideas? Or am I going to have to book it back in again Global Warming.... I'm luvvin it

Which dealer should we avoid?Dr. Ian Malcolm:
"Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."
Transgenic tomato anyone?

I'll heading South then
Could they have re-connected your fuel filter incorrectly perhaps?Dr. Ian Malcolm:

Re: Problem After P008 and P017 Recall Work
only If its got the old fuel filter but id say there will probly be a loose connector because the po08 is the high pressure fuel pump lots of things 2 take off ! hope that helps

Thanks, It does seem as though the fuel is not getting through properly. Be interesting to see if anyone else gets this and not just me.
It's also very hesitant when you pull away and slow to start building up the revs which I never had before.Global Warming.... I'm luvvin it

Also if the car was started with an injector plug off the ecu will still think its got a miss fire even if all plugs are back on take it back to the dealer who did the recall the po17 is a brake vac pipe on the servo !
