Someone else posted that they disconnected then reconnected & it worked so I thought I'd try it. Before, when I pressed the button I would get error lights & messages on the dashboard. Now it says recalibrating with a green light, so definitely worth the 10 minutes to get to the connector. I...

Thanks to the information offered here I found it, hiding under the large ECU on the drivers side (UK). Disconnected, reconnected & I now have comms! The codes suggest it needs re programming as the live data now shows tyre pressures. Thank you for your input everyone, much appreciated.

Sounds like it could also be the diff bushes? Possibly....

I'm on my third one, a 4.7S, and from my experience are no more expensive to run than the German fleet fodder. Tyre's are roughly the same size, fuel consumption, tax and insurance all on a par. Servicing can be a touch more, but there is a very good independent network that can bring that back...

I thought it was a very simple system, 4 TPS's & an ECU? I also thought it was worth exploring the possibilities of repairing it, in case of something simple? But yes, I also thought of coding it out but assumed it needed an ECU there in the first place?

Does that suggest that nothing is missing from the other side then?

:frusty5: Thank you for your very prompt reply

Hello everyone I am after a little bit of advice/guidance please. I have a 2009 QP 4.7S with a TPMS light on, surprise surprise! I looked in the little compartment under the passenger carpet & found.....nothing. I looked under the driver mat & found a large ECU, possibly too large for TPMS. My...

Congratulations on your Maserati, you'll never get bored of pronouncing that!

Hello everyone Not bragging, not boasting but I managed to change the AC compressor in just over 2 hours this weekend. The reason for this post? Simple, I looked up this job to see how bad my day was going to be & everything I read suggested an 8 hour, exhaust manifold removal job. As a result I...

Morning gents So I get the availability is low, hopefully due to the time of year & beautiful weather and not my planning? Either way the restaurant has called me to confirm numbers so I've cancelled the big table. Perhaps if I arrange something later in the year in the Midlands we'll have a...

Hello everyone Having owned my QP for a couple of months now I am keen to meet up with other owners/enthusiasts. Unfortunately most of the events are more southerly based or focused.....which is tough on us poor Northerners! To that end I have spoken to a local restaurant & (very...

I've just looked into this event but it's an 8 to midday event & I'm about 3 hours away. That's a long run for a few hours meet. Bugger!

And it sounds exactly the same! Bravo mate, well done

Hang on, do you have a Black QP with yellow calipers & moded exhaust too? Seriously, what are the odds? And having lived here for over 10 years I've never seen you/it! That's probably my favourite part of the car, or the rear profile. I feel the front is a touch too delicate & the lights too...

The only video I have is at idle, but they both sound very similar at idle. It's only as you drive(hard) that the difference becomes noticable. It's something I plan to do once the weather clears up a touch. Gazcw: Great minds..... I'll definitely be keeping an eye(ear?) out for you

That last one is my new screen saver!

When I removed the back box to open them up this is what I found inside. Some sound deadening fibreglass type material tightly filled into the back section with the pipe work as shown below. The flap is sprung closed & the force of the escaping gasses opens it up. The more you rev the better she...

Sorry Gazcw i should have stated that isn't my Ghibli. My brother started looking at the German tat before asking my opinion. When I showed him what else he could have for similar money, we bought it. I'll pm conearo to combine the accounts, thank you. Andy, you missed out. Even if she did...

Thank you for the warm welcome gents, appreciate it. I sat in a QP IV at the NEC Motor show way back in the day & promised myself I'd get one. 3 children, 2 houses & a business later I managed to make good on my promise! I loved the styling & the heritage but that Alcantara roof lining was just...
