- VU Maloo R8
Hello everyone! long time reader of these forums, first time poste!
6 months ago i brought an R8 maloo 2001 VU. I have been battling a check engine light issue for the past month. I will start the car and drive up the road, for however long it takes for the thermostat to open, temp guage jumps up to just under half (where it has always been) and then.... BAM..... engine light comes on! fark!
So it will stay on untill i park the car and the temp drops, but as soon as it hits running temp its back on!
I have replaced the oxy sensors, TWICE! also in desperation the coolent temp sensor? what am i missing?
I had the codes read and there is nothing!
Any thoughts?
Cheers, JOE
