Have you tried changing Comm ports? From memory I think EAS Unlock defaults to Comm 1 (Keith will know) I have to use Comm 4

You have answered an issue I have had for years, never really looked into it though, my HEVAC has dimmed while pressing the brake pedal for years, I thunked it was normal :) Thanks Pete

Starts and then stops unless I give a fair amount of wellie, it then runs rough as rats, plugged in it runs fine and smooth apart from the random engine dying bit.

I think the MAF is the culprit, when going slow on a roundabout or junction the rpm is in the region of 700ish the MAF reading goes up and down from 25kg and when the car starts to “hunt” it goes down as far as 0 for a second or so. As soon as it jumps to 15 - 25 it takes off again. I remember...

They read as ok

I can't say I have, I didn't really consider that because she runs as smooth as silk up to and after these episodes

Thanks Pete, so far no faults logged which is why I am scratching my head

I am not sure if anyone can point me in the right direction but I will ask. I have a 98 4.6HSE which has a random issue. Sometimes when starting it dies immediately or chugs a little and then runs fine (hot or cold) most times it starts and runs flawlessly. It also randomly stutters as if it is...

We all knew you would get it in the end :)

if I still had my equipment I would, it use to be my profession in the days of yore.....

Keith I am not sure if my memory is right but didn't Kurt sell the NRV's? I bought a couple of sets a few years back but for the life of me I cannot remember from who and I cannot find the invoice/payment details
