Hello everyone! I've got a strange issue with my XFR with 23K miles on the clock. It's a lumpy/rough idle. I've tried to capture it on video using a water bottle as a bubble: Near the 10 second mark you can see that the water is shaking with a bigger amplitude than before. That is due to the...

Hello, One week ago my engine become more noisy than usual, it's noticeable after it warms up (it may be present at cold starts also, but I can't hear it because it idles a little bit high). The knock sound seems to come from the right side of the engine, and it's more noticeable when...

Hi there, I am on a long and steep learning curve here. First noticed some roughness several days earlier than the main event, but it cleared up. Car had been running well 2 years with some minor interventions. One was replacing the green air intake o-rings to fix oil leak onto manifold (I only...

Hi guys, I guess I'm the worst kind of member, I only come round when I have a problem. I seem to recall reading that if the code comes up for running lean on both banks, it means there is a good chance I need to replace the vacuum lines. At this point she idles very rough and even stalls...

Hi there I see alot of posts about coolant issues on the forums but was hoping for some specific insight as the two seemingly most common problems (leaky/cracked expansion tank and corroded top hose) have been addressed. Long story short.... 3 weeks ago it started with a engine coolant low...

i'm having a couple of problems with my car, when i start it from cold in the morning it starts first time but after about 10 seconds the idle becomes very rough and remains like this until the engine has warmed up. Also when cruising at about 1500RPM with very light throttle the car hesitates...

Hello All, I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction for a problem I have having. When I leave my car to idle in park I get quite a lot of blueish smoke coming out the back of the exhaust. It only seems to do this when in park and not in drive as I can sit in traffic on the foot...

My Jaguar S-Type 3.0 V6 (Automatic, 2002 with 130k miles) has had a misfire for over 2 years but was driveable and had normal power. Lately the idle has gotten extremely rough and power has been lost. The car is now un-driveable. Engine shakes and idle goes very low, the engine does stall...
