Re: Transmission limp mode after long ride in hot weather
Thank you for your valued reply. Had it checked by the workshop where they had rebuilt the transmission. They didn't see any problem. Oil looks ok. They also told I should measure oil with engine on. Only then it shows correct level. Next thing, because they can't simulate long drive, they will borr...

Transmission limp mode after long ride in hot weather
Occassionally when driving at high speeds on highways (150+ km/h) for prolonged time (several hours), during temporary high rpm events like overtaking or a hill, I can hear a whine sound at about 4000 rpm. Then the car seems to lose power, slows down, doesn't accelerate just keep speed, or decelerat...

Re: Service engine, hill hold disabled & ESP error messages FIX
has anyone thought we may have dying ECUs? After 220k+ km it is quite likely to say the least. How long can a circuit board work? Electronics, including transistors carved in silicone, tend to drift after a time, especially in conditions like frequent extreme temperature changes. ECU is a delicate c...

engine stalls after starting when it's been raining
When it rains, or after rain, I encounter an issue where the engine shuts off shortly after ignition. Typically, upon starting, the RPM climbs to around 1000 and returns to 400 but this time it then unexpectedly fell to zero, rather than maintaining the usual 400. To keep the engine running, I find ...

Re: Rough cold start
The problem was with liquid gas to vapor converter, reducer or what's the name. Car has this LPG addon so that it can drive on LPG fuel. The reducer requires maintenance from time to time, and after re-sealing it the issue was gone.

Re: Rough cold start
I suspect it to be related to LPG fuel. When driving in LPG mode, turning off the engine leaves LPG (gas) in the engine (just my thoughts). So when next time starting the engine, it has to get rid of this gas, then pump and pressurize new petrol, then create air-petrol mixture to be able to ignite, ...

Re: Rough cold start

Re: Rough cold start
It went away on its own. Sometimes it still happens but I stopped to care.

Re: Transmission won't engage
It's done. They revamped the transmission and did 2 test drives before releasing the car. After I received it I've already driven ~1000km with it, no signs of issues. - Pulley set with chain - repaired ..........723,00 - O/H kit with pistons......................365,32 - Filter internal (received wr...
