New L200 animal 2008 owner

#1 by Sithsquirrel ( Guest ) , Mon Jun 01, 2015 11:10 pm

Hi I registered on Saturday but still haven't had an e mail to say I've been accepted.
Was driving home on Saturday night when my EML came on. I pulled over and switched off the engine but when I started it again it stayed on. I drove at a slower rate , about 50mph, to get home.
On Sunday I started it and there was no light on and seems fine. Anyone got any ideas please

mine comes on now and then (after booting it and taking the revs too high)
the EML comes on and I lose all power
usually I pull over wait a minute or 2 with the ignition completely off then turn it back on again and it's fine
mine is overboost that causes it but it happens so infrequently that I haven't bothered adjusting the turbo
there is a "how to" of what to do to cure overboost once you're a full member on here
mine is, however the older shape than yours so yours may be something else , like the egr/manifold needing cleaning etc but I'm sure someone will have an idea
If in doubt ....... always change the fuel filter first as this can cure all sorts of issues
I shall give @ronniecabers and @Admin a shout just in case your membership request has slipped through unnoticed

Hi sith squirrel. ..

Not 100% sure what happened, but Admin doesn't seem to have a user by your name, I did a welcome post for 14 new members and ad Admin says in her post above, unfortunately your user name wasn't among them...could you possibly try and register again? Sorry for the inconvenience!

Hi I re-registered on 3/6/15 after my first one being lost in the void but I'm still yet to hear anything, how long does it usually take? I'm a novice when it comes to all things L200 so need to learn
Many thanks
Sithsquirrel

2 or 3 usually. The Admins are unpaid volunteers, normal people with families etc, not sad buggers like us!
