Hey, I was driving into town about an hour ago and the engine light came on in the E92.

As some know the car had the crankshaft replaced about a month ago- I've only done 200miles since, running it in easy.

M&G will take it today but said it depends if there's a car in it- I could be there 10mins or 2 hours. No thanks!!

Conor is off untill Monday in Scullys so that's a no go for today- anyone know anyone who has a diagnostic machine? Near malahide side of north dublin.

If you think it's important to get it fixed straight away I could head down to JD's but I'd rather not to be honest.

Thanks Brian.

Whats the place in Baldoyle called??
Was talking to a lad that works in the local chipper, who bought an 03 M3 Vert recently and said he's been out to him to get work done and was happy with him!!

Just did a quick google!

Auto Tec - not sure if this is the crowd or not?

Brian - that car is borked and fit for the scrap heap.

I'll give ya €900 to take it off your hands to save you sending it in for a new Panda under the scrappage scheme ....

autotech in baldoyle, great service there.

I'd recommend Courtney motors in the north strand.

Brian, bring it back to M&G and let them diagnose - a pain of a trek for you I know. I wouldn't involve another company without M&G getting a look at it first. I'd rather the folks who are familiar with your specific issue and the work already carried out on your car get to review first. Especially seeing as its warranty work, and most likely related in some way to the previous fault.

M&G will be fixing it, no doubt about that but sure i cant go over there for diagnostic if the lad on the phone says he might be leaving me sitting there for two hours because they might have a car put into the machine?? He wouldnt/couldnt give me a time to get it booked in for the diagnostic.

Hes got no courtesy cars for three weeks either.

Does the error code P3264 mean anything to anyone?

I hope that's not the code for low water levels!

 

[beemerchris]

The code relates to the exhaust gas before cat

"Flow too low before cat" either an airleak or a blockage. Does the car have a DPF?

You need someone with a proper tool that can read the DDE codes of your ecu (there are over 400 of them).
If you are in the Sandyford area tomorrow give me a bell and I read them for you while you wait.

 

[kennedy]

Yeh I've a dpf- I've been taking it easy since the crankshaft was replaced. Maybe it needs a good run up the motorway?

 

[kennedy]

The car going in to M&G at 8 tomorrow- does anyone know how long it would take them to diagnose it? I've to be back in town by 9:45!
