Hello everyone, just purchased my second VL exec to do up and run into a couple of dramas already and would really appreciate any help offered.
1. when cold starting engine misses quite badly for about 20-30 sec and if i try to rev it it just bogs down and can hear it backfiring through the intake, then out of nowhere revs suddenly raise by it self and smooth out as if a choke has come on, once warmed up it seems to idle quite high about 1500rpm or more i think (guess) and it wants to stall as soon as its put in gear, i cant work out why.
2. Another problem i have is overdrive is not working at all (only 3 gears) and when i have the PWR/overdrive(off) button on/out and switch the headlights on the PWR light on the dash goes out, really weird.
3. Gear selector wont go into first.
other then that on the road the engine runs smooth and quiet but gear changes seem slightly firm. So hopefully someone on here could give me an idea of whats going on cause its got me stumped. Cheers
