That's PF 32V car, 1999 registration was what through us off. Must be late 1998 car that was registered in 1999 so 1 actuator is correct. Flaps usually don't stick on 32v and does not brake links. So the fault must be somewhere else.

Yeah My bad, It's a very late pre facelift I think.
|
Does the valve suck itself in when you start the car up?
|
I'm not sure on that as my wife videoed it while I started it.
Looked at that link with possible symptoms of the camshaft sensor and I dont have those symptoms, well not sure about the emissions. Could a dodgy sensor cause my hesitation? I think my fuel consumption is pretty good for a big v8. |
you fuel consumption would be good. . . if your engine was running lean due to fuel starvation or maf issue etc

Might sound like a stupid question but I'm no mechanic:Confused: but could bad plugs or 95 ron fuel cause my problems?

Absolutely and even more if combination of both. If You have VCDS look at measuring blocks for 'knock retard' or something similar. If you get any values other then '0' in there under acceleration it might very well be the case. Even if it's all '0' it still could be plugs but not the petrol. While you are there might as well check measuring blocks for misfires.

No VCDS as of yet I'm afraid.
