Hi Ryan and welcome to the club, list the problems and someone will give you the advice your after as there is a few experts on here, get some pics up of the car and see you at a meet soon, from Baz and Shaz:doubleup:

Hi Ryan,

I'm in LA (Littlehampton) - what's the problem I too have a Blue Bug (mica blue) I'm happy to take a look, I know a fair bit about the engines and enough to know when I don't know and what not to touch!

howdy and welcome to SES :wave:

(from another blue bug owner! :D)

Howdy, another bug for the fold.

And sign up for Japbash.:razz:

:doubleup::doubleup:Hello and thankyou for the warm welcome. :wave:

bluebugeye thank you for the offer. My mother lives in littlehampton and we often take the kids over to visit. If you are available next weekend im over at littlehampton.:smile: Let us know.

SO here it goes. Bought the car with a 'turbosmart 260bhp upgrade', I know enough to know this is a cheap fix upgrade and not a good way to gain true bhp.

Turns out i was right but the price was right so i perchased. It had a hardpipe induction kit, turbosmart dumpvalve, turbosmart manual boost controller and a superchip ABC chip hard wired into the ecu:doubledown:.

All of this was ripped out and ive manage to restore it back to standard bar a scoobyclinic exhaust and a blitz panel filter. And a boost guage (temporary).

There has been the check engine light on since i bought it. I perchased a obd 2 reader and found fault codes: P0304 cylinder 4 misfire
P0546 egt sens circ high bank 1 sens 1.

Checked again today and now P0302 cylinder 2 misfire.
Need to get these sorted before a service and then modding.

Any ideas welcome, Thanks in advance :doubleup:

One question , Have you tried a diferent ECU in it?

Didnt realise there was someone that close to me. Thought bluebugeye in littlehampton was close.:lol:

Crowman thanks for the advice, Im looking to go to the japbash im just working out my schedule and at the moment it looks lke im coming, but im working in newcastle at the moment and will be up there for the following 8 weeks (coming home at weekends) but sometimes i do work the occasional weekend when required. But im Defo coming at the mo:doubleup:, its not next sat, but the one after.... right:???: sorry im rubbish with date and months....:lol:

As it happens I may have an EcuTek Licensed ECU up for grabs soon which in the magical hands of the Jolly Green Monster could be mapped for around £300 saving you the £500 for the license!!
