Sv6 Check power train.

[wassaby]

Hey guys just filled my car up with fuel and the car would not start for 10 sec and then come up with check power train. Im thinking Fuel pump or maybe injectors as im not getting the best econmy about 16l/100km. Any suggetions.

or O2 sensors ....

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.

 

[devil_87]

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.

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

It's normally the front two that give you grief & have any bearing on fuel economy.

I am really confused. Thought i would stop being a tight ass today and took my sv6 in to get checked out after the power train warning come up. Mechanic said cant find anything wrong with it. Did not find any codes etc etc etc. Why did it not log any codes?? Should of spent the money ripping the intake manifold off and getting to the injectors and getting them cleaned. Hate mechanics.
