That's the one.... that's the daily derv.

Glad to hear she passed.... looked VERY nice in the flesh!
 
well had her out for abit tonight but am going to be jumping all over it soon. as am sick of the fault its in limp mode will not rev over 4.5k. fault 19 intermittent rpm signal changed them for new a few times not sorted it am starting to think its a ecu fault any help would be much appreciated.
 
It's in limp mode by the sounds of it, normally caused by a duff cam or crank sensor, or broken wiring for these sensors on the loom.

well its not the sensors as i have changed them for new a few times. i have had a look at the loom cant see anything its a shame there is no one local to me with a ecu i can try as its the 1.8 cant fined one to buy.
 
Did you change the sensors for pattern sensors from a factor or genuine ones?

I've changed the cam sensor on a x20xev for a brand new pattern one and it failed as soon as it went on. 2nd hand genuine known working one fixed it in the end. The 1.8 and the xev are very similar from what I remember.

This. Never use pattern for sensors.
