I'm fairly sure it's a torque convertor issue now after reading symptoms of it. If you listen you can hear like a slight humming noise while it's surging and almost feels like it's humming in time with itself. Can't remember what the fault was actually called but was something like torque...

Hi Thanks I had exhausted all my options and checked absolutely everything possible it made no sense at all. I think the main thing that confused me was when it switched itself off the was no loss of power or earth at the back of the unit. Anyway I eventually found a used head unit the same as...

Iv had the fuse box out and cleaned and checked everything and always still the same it's like hitting my head on a brick wall lol. Checked the earth leads and all sound. Checked battery checked alternator and all voltages are correct. Nothing seems to make sense with it at all. Iv just about...

Everything still the same il check the ecus behind battery but failing that I'm just about giving up don't have the time or money to keep chasing dead ends thank you for all the advise on here though

Hi No luck with the issue I'm afraid tried all the suggestions from here and it's still the same

Oh yea and both carpets are bone dry

Egrs don't appear to be blanked and just cleaned map and mas air flow also added another earth from battery to body. Nothing has changed at all I'm worried as iv got a family thing today and have to drive from Leeds to Lincoln while still trying to convince the wife iv got a good car and...

Voltage 12.51 Running all off 14.99 Runng all on 14.97

Just been thinking and if I could find someone local with the same head unit is it feasible to just swap them over and try it before I buy a brand new second hand one or do they need coding to the car? Cheers

Thanks at least iv got a few things to try now. Iv got the battery on charge over night so il check it all over in the morning. The one thing I really don't understand with the fault is that with a tester I to the wiring at back of head unit theres no loss of power or earth when it goes off...

Thank you. It seems to change smoothly enough and no bangs ect as I say it's really hard to describe. I will try get a short video tomorrow and see if I can upload it

I'd rather mine was rotton to be fair I'm a bit handy with a welder lol Electrics fry my head a bit although not too bad with them once I work out the logic behind them but this is baffling me now. As for gearbox I'm just a bit confused by no fault codes in engine or gearbox one thing I have...

It's not rotton so I suppose it's got something going for it haha Its worse up hill and feels almost like it's not sure what gear it should be in. Not so much kangaroo but can feel it surge doesn't really seem to slip. I can't really decide if it's gearbox or engine related it's almost like it...

I will try that now thank you

I'm also worrying its a gearbox or torque convertor fault causing the hunting or surging but on diagnostics gearbox all seems good with no faults and checked transmission fluid all nice and clean and at the proper level. Anyone want to buy a used lemon?
