    Trouble Code - PO431 warm up catalyst efficiency - below threshold

    Hi fellas, I’ve been struggling with this one for the last week. I’ve cleared it a couple of times but it keeps coming back, so I guess it’s real. The online research I’ve carried out suggests that one of my “cats” has failed and needs replacing (in which case I’d probably replace both sides...

    Can anyone tell me what this is please?

    Hi again fellas, did I mention when it rains it pours? More on that later. When further investigating my driver side window issue (not working - faulty motor I believe), I took the door card off, started feeling around inside the door and found this lying in the bottom of the door. Any idea...

    Hi fellas, Over the weekend, my rhs window simply stopped working. Stuck in the up position what's more - a right PITA when opening and closing the door! I took it to a local auto electrician today and he is convinced that the motor has blown and that I need to replace the motor and...

    Independent 4200 Service in Melbourne

    Le Mans 24 Heur 2016!

    Folks, I realise that this is a little off-topic, not being Maser specific, but as one owner to others, I hope you'll indulge and forgive me. I'm travelling from Tasmania to Europe in time to coincide with Le Mans this year and am booking tickets to go! Having never been to such an event...
