HAPPY CHRISTMAS :cheesy:

:cheesy: Ah not far away then :lol: . The reason I was asking is that I've got a diagnostic that'll read your fault codes and reset the engine management light if you want to nip up to Merthyr and give it a try. It does caution that the car will run rough for a while afterwards though, while the engine "re-learns" it's settings. If the light and message come back again you can then be pretty sure that there is something wrong.

When mine was showing the "antipolution" fault the egr valve was on it's way out. With pug diagnostics and fitting and the cost of the part it was over £270 :cry:

Thanks for your reply mate i might take u up on your generous offer after xmas. ( will be too intoxicated with xmas cheer till then lol ) when you mentioned the egr valve. My front exhaust has been a bit noisy I wonder if its affected this valve ?typically my garage replaced the tail and mid section last october.
