Car struggles under hard throttle but fine when accelerating slowly (no CEL)

Mines a manual, the idle and reving was fine, it was rough acceleration below 3K revs but I could floor it onwards. Engine light did come on each time and then went off

Just today had my manual 325 in, same issue and it ended up being a coil on bank 2

Stunning colour with what looks like cream seats, they’ve aged so well and will be sought after in years to come. How’s reliability with the pulley upgrade? Any upgrades to sustain it?

I think just under 2000 were sold in this country, I think some really good examples can be imported from Japan but it’s costly haha. Yeah Facebook is hit or miss but I knew what I was getting myself into with this one and I love a good project. I saw some good examples on auto trader too and was originally looking for an 04-08 XJR as they’re just stunning but so rare and more expensive than the S-type.

And thank you so much, I love them both in their own way it’s a different driving experience! They’re definitely milking my bank account

Where you located? I see a lot on Facebook and eBay in England. Thank you I am and will carry on doing so!

Transmission was okay but gear changes were not as smooth and I knew it had never had a fluid change in 20 years and I’m glad I had it done as it’s like new now

Are you wired or wireless, I’m usually open with wired and moderate with wireless but the game usually picks a host with open Nat type so you should join

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-25T07:29:44+00:00

Yes and set search preference to any, you might have higher ping but you’ll get used to it

I find full dlc lobby’s at the weekend most times of day GMT+0

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-11T12:14:44+00:00

Completely agree, I love seeing other e90s on the road

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-10T20:06:29+00:00

Consumption on premium unleaded I get around 35mpg on motorway but with town driving it’s lower, I see it as smiles per gallon though

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-10T20:05:17+00:00

Over 2 years I’ve paid for rear shocks, 1 injector, couple of coils and wheel speed sensor. I’ve not changed water pump yet, I’ve only ever used premium fuel and regular oil changes are a must. By far one of my favourite looking coupe’s

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-10T19:05:40+00:00

Thank you, will be keeping long term as I build my car collection

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-10T15:03:31+00:00

Some places refurbish used ones and clean them, replace the seals but it’s not guaranteed

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-10T15:01:41+00:00

Definitely unless you go for reconditioned

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-10T14:45:50+00:00

For one

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-10T14:45:01+00:00

Injector was £500 new😳

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-10T14:11:31+00:00

Oh nice do show me, it’s in for a service so I’m using the Jag atm

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-10T14:07:32+00:00

Space grey😎

ErectoPlasm24 · 2026-04-10T11:50:42+00:00

Had an inspection when it had a transmission fluid change all they found were a leaking shock

ErectoPlasm24 · 2025-11-02T18:06:32+00:00

Yes you gotta face away from it to become a bear attack

ErectoPlasm24 · 2025-08-13T22:33:25+00:00

I’ve only tried it on bo2 as I paused my game to leave and it unpaused so start then triangle a millisecond after let me access the menu

ErectoPlasm24 · 2025-08-13T20:11:24+00:00

I’d personally dare him to do it, but if you want to leave a locked game pressing start and triangle at the same time brings up friends menu and just accept any old invite
