I had the boost pipe come off once, and all the grunt went, but it was accompanied by a mass of overfueling black smoke much to the dismay of the Merc Following close

Re roverbarmy
No roverbarmy, the car still making more than 50 mph, It's me.. I decided to reduce the speed because I was scared of damaging the engine after the worning light came on.

Only way now to get an answer is a systems check.

Re: engine loose power
Hi Guys,
Today I went to my mechanic about my previous problem of engine power lost.. He tested a few times the car with the T4 and he found various error messages about engine not working properly on 3 cylinders so now he reseted but I'll need to change Motor assembly multi point injection/TBi - Detail of Assembly OR balance valve motor, it seam that this along with the other VIS motor are a common problem. So I've to spend £150 to have back all the engine power! I'll keep you informed when job is done. Cheers Matt |

Plenty of options for repairing VIS motors or replacing with upgraded items. Search the forum for 'VIS motor' to find relevant threads.

I should also add this. A sudden loss of power with a warning light is unlikely to be caused by a failed VIS motor alone - many of the V6s drive around with failed VIS motors without the warning light coming on.

I can confirm whilst you will notice a difference in economy and performance if your VIS motors have failed they will NOT bring the engine management light on.

When my old Contemporary ran on 3 with the light on it was a coil pack. Lincsdave who did the repair said its a common thing.
