Hi Guys,

Introduced myself a few weeks back, and since then I've been waiting and waiting to get my car. I now have it! A 2006 MPS 6 in moist silver. (I think, somebody removed the paint code sticker and replaced it with a totalmps sticker!) Got a few jobs to do on the car, first one is work out why it's suffering a random hesitation under load.

I don't seem to be able to add pictures from dropbox, I'm selecting them and nothing happens! I'll put some pictures up as soon as i figure out what i'm doing! :help:

Nice mate I hope your enjoying your car....
As for pictures I find using the tapatalk app for the forum is much easier for putting photos on :thumbs:

Welcome long mate. Car looks good - the badgeless grill is a big improvement IMO. Any other mods?

The TotalMPS sticker may have something to do with the hesitation! Do you have any way of logging fault codes?

I'm kind of hoping the totalmps sticker is because I think the grill was from there!

I don't have anyway of logging anything unfortunately, taking it to a garage is my only option for that. Yesterday the plugs and thermostat were changed, the plugs were ruined and the 'stat was sticking, that seems to have improved it, but not solved it. It's worse when the engine isn't fully up to temperature. I'm going to clean the air filter and map/maf (whichever it is!) sensor connectors tonight.

No I didn't manage to get a low tax one! 500 quid a year to tax [FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY] I know the paint code for moist silver is 30s, I just wanted to know if it's definitely moist silver before getting a touch up for it. If someone could visually identify it lol
