I have a code come up with imbalance in cylinder 1, but have been told it's not a injector or cylinder problem, and my fan problem is, I can turn my engine on, then straight back off, and my fans kick in, they will go of in a couple of minutes, I'm not losing coolant, and my engine doesn't overheat, but my temperature needle rises really slow, hope someone could help, as I'm taking it to garages and seem to be getting ripped off without really sorting the issues. Many thanks.

Hello,

I would suggest conducting a CAN scan and post all fault codes on here so that we can evaluate these.
Please also reply with your full vehicle VIN so that we can get back to you with the correct information

Regarding the cooling fans, did you ensure that the AC is turned off?

Cheers, Boris

Hi Boris, no the A/C isn't turn on, I could start the car from cold, turn it straight back off, and the fans kick in, and the other info I will sort out, thank you.
