(AND ASSUMING EVERYTHING OBVIOUS HAS BEEN CHECKED) I had a VR V8 back in the day when they were cool...(This was just after my 5 Speed Late model camira Turbo...for the record the turbo was a much faster car...which is why I haven't bought a V8 since)...anyway, I had these weird errors and erratic speedo and tacho problems which we couldn't diagnose.After checking the obvious such as battery and earth cables etc...it was finally found that one of the ignition leads had a small split in it, causing it to arc under heavy load...(im not really sure how this affected the instrument panel, but once the lead was changed, it fixed the problem. I totally agree that the above sounds silly, and unfounded...but maybe have a look at your coil packs, as there might be a chance they are arcing under load, and causing the issue...(I ADMIT IT IS A LONG SHOT AND I DON'T MEAN TO SEND YOU ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( seen excessively dirty tone rings cause issues before ) Then leading up towards where these join into the loom and plugs in to the ecuGo to the ecu and un plug the connectors underneath and re plug them in, it "sounds" like you have a loose connection Go check and pay attention to how it all "un clips" then re clips inWhen they replaced the ECU did they re connect the earth/s that are riveted to the engine bay ? ( take a pik of the computer section of your car if unsure and post it ) Edited 16/03/15 10:44 PM by Wombat Bellend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snafu69 New Member 9 Member For: 9y 8m 11d Posted 17/03/15 08:50 AM Author Share Posted 17/03/15 08:50 AM Here is a list of the Codes found by HPF on the dayP0701 Transmission ... Fixed cleared never come back found some oil in the CAN buss connector on the transmissionP1386 VCT B2 Over Advanced (Timing chain gears and guides now all replaced)P1900 Can comm bus faultU2514 VSS this is the result of the speedo reading zero while the car is movingThey spent over a full day trying to find anything in the CAN bus that would cause the error including pulling various parts of the loom while it was running under load lol they burnt through half a tank of petrolI think its going to come down to the P1900 error but even ford handed the car back as it didn't play up once while they had it lol yet every other day it will do it all day longI don't think they actually drove it under full boost. They just said no charge replace the timing chain it will be 800 labour plus parts lol .. ended up having chain guides and all done for $640.00just reading around on google someone else had a misfire at 4000 - 4500 and a can bus error ended up actually being the Turbo Actuator had a broken diaphragm any thoughts on this ?
