Hello all,
Im hoping someone can help me. I have a 2002 X type 2.5 v6 sport with manual transmission. The car has developed an irritating fault. When accelerating in any gear once the revs get above 2750rpm the engine management light starts flashing and it cuts the power until the revs dip below 2750 rpm.
This only occurs when the engine is under load. You can sit stationary and rev it all the way to the rev limiter without provoking the engine management.
The car has thrown up the following fault codes:-
P0301
P1313
P0420
i have changed the coil packs on bank 1. So cylinders 1,3 and 5 as well as replacing all 6 plugs. All new parts used.
The old plugs did not show anything out of the ordinary. Has anyone experienced this or similar before. Can anyone point me in the right direction to getting this fixed. I like the car and don't want to sell it but I'm struggling to justify keeping it.
Yes I know that 2750 rpm gives me 70 mph in top gear but it would be nice to go up a hill without it cutting the power.
Thank you all
