VN V6 Problems.HELP - Aussie V8 | Holden - Ford

hq72ute · 08-05-2005, 01:25 PM

If anyone has any ideas that would be great. My Vn V6 is sick, It will idel properly but as soon as you give it any throttle it will splutter and choke itsself. It happened while i was driving it. The engine light came on for a little while then i lost power. No the engine light doesn't come on but still has its problem of choking.

I'm thinking it is a crank angle sensor as it idels fine. Cant remember the codes for the ecu either. All i can remember that 12 is system ok.

Take it to ultra tune and get it diagnosed. My VR is starting to do the exact same thing so I'm gunna get it in there for a full service, saves me a bit of dosh this way.

You only got one on the VN engine so your lucky. Under 200 from what I remember. I had it replaced on the missus VN recently and it was pretty cheap I think.
