  14. hi update my car was rear ended the day the code appeared a friend of mine said sometimes a rear end shunt can knock out senser so disconnected battery to reset system this has worked
  15. hi the problem with my car was intermittant fault with upstream o2 senser earth wire where it meets in the loom with downstream o2 senser the wires meet in loom auto electrican had to strip loom down to find fault as it was intermittant found it to be earth wire then he ran a bypass to the chassis this fixed it my mpg up by 5 mpg in town 8 mpg on run took 4 hours to do had to take out battery egr valve to get to loom
  16. hi looking through my code book all your codes relate to circuit malfunctions have you checked loom is connected to your ecu correctly also check for moisture at the connecters where they meet ecu i have v6 petrol my ecu sits behind nearside headlight and next to my battery had fault in my loom had to take connecters off ecu moisture can get inside and corrode pins dont where your ecu is on diesels hopes this helps
  17. hi have 3.3 v6 petrol grand voyager i have code p0420 come up saying cat below threshold bank 1 both my o2 senors are no more than 6 months old how likely is it that my cat needs replacing what would occur if i continue to drive i know that the cat could break down internally causing blockage that will stop car running thanks
  18. hi i got 53 grand voyager only folds backwards the model before folded forward if you pull seat forward as far as it goes then fold seat backwards it should recline nearly flat but take out luggage cover if u got one first hope this helps
  19. hi i got v6 petrol run mine at 38 psi mine corners fine on that my tyres are 215 65 16
  20. my car had spluttering problem lack power was v6 model turned out to be wiring fault with lambda sensor upstream car would run fine for a while then when you put foot down nothing check sensor code is p0134 this part 122.40 from chrysler can get next day hopes this helps also does car run rich or is your mpg down mine was 5 mpg round town 9mpg on run had this fixed now get 18mpg in town 31mpg on run
  21. hi i posted fault with my v6 grand voyager 53 reg petrol my car triggered fault codes p0134 p0171 replaced upstream 02 sensor but also replaced downstream at same time took my car to autoelectrican after 2 separate diagnoses were made one said faulty sensor one said wiring fault so replaced sensor problem still arose so finally after saving some money took to autoelectrican originally he couldnt find fault but while testing my fault appeared he had to strip entire near side of engine bay which included taking out battery egr valve to get to loom that runs across gearbox to ecu the fault was intermittant where the 2 earth wires from both 02 sensors meet in the loom the upstream one had the fault the guy ran a wire from upstream o2 earth wire to chassis just under ecu this fixed fault my car now runs fantastic mpg up as well just thought update you all with outcome symptoms i had were running rich and sometimes loss power when accerating
