so i assume the part number u provided is for input speed sensor?
thanks
Yep - sure did. Yes that is the part number for the input shaft speed sensor. I think that part number is for the facelift model. But Kempy's should be able to cross reference that number with your chassis number.

My fuel economy increased heaps better after i fixed it... driving on the freeway in 3rd wastes a lot of fuel!

Did they tell you at all what happened?

Don't suppose you can tell me how much etc?
Part of me thinks the gearbox just needs a service, but I'll have a chat to UAS tomorrow if I get the chance.

gpx yours was a whole lot of input speed sensors i think...


my car just blew up its tps and various other bits....i just don't know why i'm trying to build a car for the race track it costs more in testing than it does with incidents on the race track....

hopefully i'll have it back before this weekend for the track day :)

all i got is a box full of neutrals and no error codes.... its really strange but oh well...

After doing a little more research it appears this isn't bad as it might appear.

I just need to narrow down the speed sensor part number, I'm getting conflicting part numbers.

Get my hands on some of those and swap them over myself.
