    Default NEED HELP with VR S pack

    Hi having a problem with my car ??

    Have a VR S pack series 1, 5 speed manual

    It is stalling and sometimes not starting and all the lights in and out the car are pulsing not constant but in groups and everytime this happens the rev gauge also goes up to even pass the red line but the engine it self don't rev, also when i hit bumps there is what sounds like a relay clicking sound from under the dash and the ((!)) in red symbol appears on the dash next to the engine light i have had a few ppl look at it but no one can tell me what is going on.
    some say it is the coil pack, others say it is the fuel pump and that the car is fuel starved.

    I was wondering if anyone else has come across this problem before and could tell me what it is or how to fix it..

    I have new leads, battery, ring gear, starter motor and a clutch in the last couple months and now all of a sudden it is doing this..

    Sounds like the process of removing and replacing the battery terminals has created a poor connection - maybe broken a wire inside the insulation if there is nothing immediately obvious.

    if he disconnected the battery allready again. then it wont show errors, he has to drive it again? could even be the ground wires. or not a good connection to the battery make sure the terminals are clamped on tight.

    and im guessing its a v6, check if the dfi is securely bolted on to the coilpack
