Well it's in the Ford Stealer, that'll be a minimum of £79.99+VAT for the diagnostics, and that's before they fix it.... :cry: Cheap my arse! :roll:

Aaaand it's back Ladies and Gents, the diagnosis was "Wiring fault to ECT sensor". The cost was £79.99 + VAT, that's £95.99 to wiggle your wires please sir...

Still could have been worse I suppose :roll:

Oo-er, blows my "£50 notes" right out the water :oops:
