    Have the skyhook warning light on the dash, has come & gone in the past but is persistent now. Have had the car on a ramp and none of the shockers are showing signs of leaking. I’m told a replacement shock is approx £1800. Anyone had similar experiences?

    Get it scanned first, it could be one of many items.

    Solenoid, faulty wiring around the wheel arch, poor battery earth and more.

    Once you have the scan it should make diagnosing easier.

    Thanks Tony, further research suggests it needs to be a Maserati dealer level scan, I’ve tried generic scanners but they can’t read sufficient detail. Is that your experience as well?

    Where are you based Peter, I have the fox pro for 4200, which we could use to at least see if there are any stored codes first. I’m in Kingston upon Thames.

    I’m at Spa this weekend back on Tuesday so if you are nearby we can try this first.

    Hi Tony,

    I’m in Manchester but I’m grateful for your kind offer. I’ve been encouraged to invest in a reader; is the fox pro the best for Maserati? I hope you have a great trip to Spa.

    Ok Peter,

    I’ve had a reader for the 3200 and the Gransport, after researching I went for the foxpro specifically for the Gransport keep loaded & purchased direct.

    I didn’t want to spend a lot on one of the more advanced products, especially the read write as you need to know what you are doing.

    The foxpro allows me to read any codes to determine if they are critical or not, so far I’ve only had lambda sensor and battery related so good know that you can continue driving.

    Am guessing you’ll be going to Autoshield, if you do as them for a printout so you have the clutch reading as well.

    Thanks  Tony, I have used Autoshield but lost a bit of confidence in them as they weee trying to tell me I needed new discs all round 2 weeks after I’d passed the MOT with flying colours. I checked them myself and they are fine but I might just need to manage them a little better. Clutch will be fine, they fitted a new one only 12 months ago. I’ll go with them and see what they say.

    Ok Peter good luck, once you have the diagnostics you can decide from there.

    Post up the codes or resolution if it gets that far.
