Hi
My engine management light has been on for the last 5 years (P1109 -0F Swirl Actuator Malfunction) but since the car runs fine the garage advised ignore it , this advice has worked for 5 years but now the new MOT rules state
"Engine Management Light is now a major fail. It must come on with the ignition and then turn off when the engine is started."
So after advice on what to do its a 2006 93 z19dth 16v 150 with a hirsh map to 175.
I have already cleaned the EGR valve, is the sensor reading the movment of the actuator arm (in which case can I disconnect it(how)).
Or do I need to replace the actuator arm, the bar itself seems to be stuck in the open position probably why its never affected the running of it.
Any help appreciated (not done much with cars but dont want to lose a perfectly good car 150K on clock)
Thanks
