Hi John, I think the "hissing" sound is probably the air-con, run the car with it off then see if it stops. Our engines are not the same, 99% sure of this, mine is an "AFN", you can check yours by looking at the sticker/label inside the spare wheel well or in the front of your service booklet...

Hi Grifter, Yes I agree, most probabley brake servo assist, but an air leak here will give air pressure concerns further down the line. Mine has been so much better since I "fiddled" with it, i even hit 120mph last week (a first since owning the car) Now my "plug in chip" will be replaced to...

Hi Guys, I have been having a problem when my 1996 110 red I hits 2500rpm, shut off ignition and re-start clears the problem. I have cleaned the MAF (no change), removed the EGR and found it totally caged in oil/carbon, so removed inlet manifold and found it to be the same. Cleaned EGR with...
