749 05 model tickover
 

How are the 749 05/06 model on tickover i.e. do they cut out at lights and junctions or has the tickover problem been resolved

Thanks
Mark

some have problems but its usually sorted at first service :)

Probably the same as the '04s - I'll be they still stall.

i was told that the 05 model was sorted , no stalling/tickover problem, i am now checking with the masses

Mark,

I've got '05 749 Dark with about 1400 miles on the clock.
Mine seems to stall when the temp is below 68 deg C. I did a run up the M40 from London yesterday morning ('kin cold I can tell you). Engine temp was sitting on/around 68 deg C mark. As I came off the motorway at the services it was stalling at every junction I had to pause at. Built the temp back up while I was parked up and had no problem. I had thought about getting the tick-over adjusted when I go in for my next service as it's becoming a pain.

Hi Mark, I have an '05 749S and have not had any problems at all.

Every report I have heard is that the problem was sorted out for '05. I have an '05 S and it has never stalled on me one time (knock on wood) that wasn't my fault:lol: I've been running mine completely stock, Termi system w ECU, and then added a PCIII. Tickover has always been a steady 1200 or so, and none of my mods made a difference. Operating temperature has also never made a difference on mine regardless of outside air temp.

'05 749 bi-p. Mine stalls pretty much every trip once or twice. Hopefully get it fixed when it comes out of hibernation....
