Hey team
I'm in need of a huge favour... I need someone to test drive my rs200 to see what's wrong with it because it hard to explain what it is, but I know something just isn't right... I'm happy to drive it over there! I'm running low of money hence why I can't get the mechanics to do it.. Help is appreciated Cheers Jimmy 0224 529934 --------------------  |

Set up a coffee meet one weekend and have a consensus amongst half a dozen Altezzas.

It passed through an aa wof not long ago... If it was the brakes they should have told me but they didn't... There's weird noises coming every time I brake and everytime I put it in neutral the noise disappears.. Any ideas! And above today my car died just randomly out of the blue and I still have half a tank left :-( not sure what's going on?

RS200 - suggest clean the MAF sensor and more important, inlet of throttle barrell plus the idle sensor.

If one cylinder isn't going then the car would be going verry slowly and feels like you're riding a horse. That's my experience anyway on my previous car.
So, doesn't sound like it's the same symptoms you posted earlier? |

More likely to be coil packs if you changed your plugs in the last 50,000

i would also appreciate any north shore members assistance. My steering wheel feels loose and i'm not sure what is causing it. Will a steering flush help? Thanks
