Bentley Arnage R road tests and consumer car reviews

Bentley Arnage R Arnage R

Charisma. Some cars have it, some don�t. Then there are the cars that have it leaching from every component part. These are few and far between and time with these cars is something to be treasured. It�s about setting the alarm for that 4am blast through the city, plotting a route across a continent that takes in roads that look like an industrial accident in a noodle factory and never being able to walk away from the car without a backwards glance. Cars like the Bentley Arnage R do that to you.

If it were a carburetor I’d have said the idle jet is blocked, but not on your car, it is fuel injected and relies on the ECU to work out the running and idle settings for your engine. If your engine has been running ok and not sounds like it’s on 3 cylinders and not burning oil and too much fuel then follow this: Firstly, I would check the state of the oil (serviced lately?) if OK, then check or change your spark plugs as these are cheap and can cause all sorts of problems as most people hardly change them (or think they last forever!) Have a look at the throttle body (the part that has a lever mechanism and spring which connects to your accelerator cable) clean it internally with carburetor cleaner. Check your air filter - is it black? Change it! Have you had the fuel filter changed - at all? Change it! As the idler air valve generally is not adjustable with modern fuel injection systems, I would be tempted to run an injector cleaner with your fuel you can get this from Halfords and others, or if you really feel like it, take the injectors out and let them soak in the stuff overnight then replace. If this still doesn’t work you are going to have to get it put on a diag computer at a garage - Andy from Hampshire
