The 145 ain't doing so well...

At the weekend, it broke down at a junction... just conked out, and wouldn't spark again. 30 mins later, she started, but again conked out at another busy junction.

After a tow back to my local garage, a suspected crank sensor was replaced, and the car seemed to be ok. On my test drive back from the garage, it has developed a missfire under hard acceleration, and also on high-revving overrun, with the injector warning light coming on as it does so.

Is this the limp mode? Or another potential gremlin?

What engine is it?

Could be water temp sensor or a split in the map sensor hose

Turns out the new crank sensor was also faulty! Another new one fitted and all's well!
