MG ZR ZS ZT Technical - ZS180 engine problems!

Hi,

I've been having some really weird problems with my ZS 180, some days the car keeps on stalling whilst idle.

Any ideas??

Thanks

It turned out to be the Map Sensor on mine. It was hard to trace because it only happened occasionally and did'nt register a fault so T4 could'nt identify a problem. Your problem is slightly different to mine as mine would'nt restart and would cut out either at idle or driving at 40mph+. Yours sounds more like an idle valve concern?

I still tour with them occasionally, but fixing MGs now comes first!!
What's even stranger is that we have the same birthday, not the same year i might add, i'm not that old.
