Hi there, just after a bit of advice for my mate who owns a vectra b.
Its a 1.8 sri model and at the moment isnt going to well.
- The EML is on permanantly
-when the car is cold (first thing in the morning) it seems to drive fine.
_ when the car warms up it seems to run dodgy and limits at 4krpm.
- he's changed the camshaft sensor and crankshaft sensor but hasnt made a difference (with new ones from vauxhall)
Hes got a new thermosat sensor and oil pressure sensor to go in at the weekend. He also says that it cuts out and when it get's warm /it also hesitates starting a little.

anyone have any ideas?

I agree with pow

Although crank sensors on these are really common and put the car into limp mode(4.5k limit)
