Paid £650, needs a new bonnet, front wings could do with spraying and speedo cable... Want a phase 2 rear bumper too.

Ordered my depo's from Dave A, pay day should see coilovers & whiteline arb

sounds simular to when my old corsa had a coolent temperature sensor fault. Could be that as it showed up on a diagnostics computer even though the light wasnt on and its was causing those symptoms as it makes it overfuel once its warm when its not working correctly.

Best bet is to get a full diagnostics test done on it as it will save all the guessing
