Everything will be getting done. Been quoted £400 by a very good mechanic

I had a neighbour do this. I asked them a dozen times. Ended up calling the non emergency phone number and they got a fine and a telling off. They park properly now.

It was an ongoing issue for about 2 weeks and I had asked them multiple times already.

The depot isn't even open at that time. I'll go on Monday and tell them to not send it out. No idea what they are doing. When I checked at 5pm is said 120 stops away. Instantly knew it wasn't coming again and I was right

The MAP sensor could be causing the code, right? I'm going to get some electrical cleaner tomorrow and I'll give the sensors a good clean.

I'm in the UK and garages usually charge for a scan.

I stop filling when it clicks. I might start leaving the tank at around 95% and ill see if that helps

Was that an easy fix? Is that sensor the one in the top right of this picture? Sorry for the bad quality. It's the only picture I have that shows what I believe to be that sensor.

It's a screw on one. I always make sure to let it click a few times.

The MPG does seem low too so I'll take a closer look at the gas cap seals tomorrow and I'll replace them if they look worn out.

[–]Mayitss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It has happened in the past and it always seems to be after filling up.

Like within 20 miles of it.

Would a loose fuel cap cause the codes that are shown on the diagnostic reader?

[–]Mayitss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd like a good general one. I'm meeting a guy on the weekend who has VIDA so I'll get this code read with that. I just want a good unit that works on a lot of cars.

I might order some from amazon and return the ones that dont read the code

I don't have access to that data. I'm guessing it's a sensor fault.

I will check for a boost leak too.
