That gets said about nearly every RR venue mate, lots of people reccomended them, I wouldn't pay any attention. People live in the clouds and don't get a figure they expect so they automatically say the rollers are out.

Likewise. If my car actually manages to make one full run I'll be happy Randomly stuttering and popping, can barely idle and has a fucked cat/1.4 system but I'm going because it's banter!

Nah I didn't have the day light today Steve! Was nightshift last night so had a sleep til about 1. Then faffed about with other bits on it! I don't see how the ICV would bugger it up whilst on the move though? Besides, had it on the diagnostic machine today and it didn't throw up any codes But it was actually working so the EML is wired up!
