- 2005 VZ SV6
Hey all, I'm a long time lurker, first time poster on need of some serious help! The car is a 2005 VZ SV6 with the LY7 alloytec and has the much anticipated powertrain fault.
It all started with a good 'ol P0443 evap purge control valve circuit fault. So I replaced the purge valve. Easy.
It didn't clear.
I then changed the spark plugs, coil packs and also the starter motor (cause it wasn't starting properly, this was fixed with the starter motor change).
I then got a P0206 (cyl6 injector circuit fault) and the car started running like absolute and complete TRASH at low revs (<1500) however this was intermittent until a mechanic reset my fuel trims as my long term was off heaps. Once the fuel trims were reset to 0% the car consistently idles horrifically and feels like it's going to perhaps stall.
I also am now showing a P2234 (O2 sensor short to heater fault). I've tried swapping the O2 sensors on the front sides to see if it would throw up a different cylinder but it didnt make a difference.
Sorry for the long winded post, and I know I'm new, but please help me. I'm out of ideas. What do I do? I don't want to replace everything just until it's fixed, I don't have cash to throw around.
