That's certainly an odd one, the plastic plenum was plastic welded during manufacture I think, it has proved one of the stumbling blocks to repairing them ie how to effectively re-seal the unit afterwards.

The fact that it's been plastic welded to repair a crack suggests some one has tried to get in there before, but even if it hadn't had the crack repaired you still wouldn't be able to gain access inside it, and I'm pretty sure there's no sensor in there anyway.

they really havent a scooby doo what theyre talking about have they

go get the car back before they rob you blind and get us some piccys

The symptoms u described just are the same as i had yesterday when it had no fuel in it

TBH i think your best PM George (MGROVERPARTS on here i think he is) and ask him about it to see if hes had anything similar happen to him

hes very clued up on the KV6

Worth a try

If the plenum is cracked I have one you can have. It ratles but will get you back on the road.

The only way its cracked is if some one has tried to open it, maybe to stop it ratling to sell it on.

I'm very green at this but you mentioned in a previous post that you couldn't get to the crank shaft sensor to check it, have the garage checked that now? Had one of these go on my old Omega and caused similar problems.
