    Hey guys have a sv6 vz 04. using way to much fuel. out of 50L i got 295ks. Everytime i fill up to the car will not start. Takes for ever then comes up with check powertrain but no codes are logged. Could the fuel pump be causing the bad fuel consumption as well as not starting??

    Do you reckon i should replace the back two or just do the injectors first???

    Sv6 Check power train.

    yep i have a sv6 04 model. Pop your hood and look for the exhaust coming out of either side of the engine and you will see a wire going to the engine thats them, then have a look under the car in the middel you will see another two.

    Sv6 a/s

    Nope. Have looked but cant find a fuse for it. Are there any fuses in side the car or is it just the box in the engine bay. Have another problem at the moment the check power train has come on.

    Sv6 Check power train.

    if the 02 sensors are oxy sensors i have replaced the two at the front, im thinking its injectors cause the engine trys to crank but nothing like there is no fuel getting to it and this would explain the high fuel usuage.
