Soldato
Hi all
Will be selling the car in a few weeks time when I get my new one.
For some time it's been having a rough start up, as if it's misfiring. It happens when it's been sitting for a few hours. For about 10 seconds, it is lumpy, sounds like it's misfiring. Then it settles down and smooths out, and after that drives fine.
It's also started using some coolant. Can't see a leak.
Finally got around to reading the error codes today and there is one code that won't go away. Error code 2aa9 which is called "variable intake system positioning motor 2 activation".
A bit of googling suggests this is a DISA valve 2 failure, which is located under the intake manifold.
I'm not sure what this part does, but would it cause a misfiring/lumpy idle like symptom on a cold start?
I don't think it would be related to slight coolant loss. Do you think a bit of radweld would be worth trying on the coolant loss side?
