Depends, what's up?
Unknown electrical issue / starting issue. Very intermittent, tried / replaced / cleaned most things already myself with initial success, but back to before.

Someone good at electrical fault finding that can diagnose for cash money before I go down the route of new loom / ECU / plugs etc. :mrgreen:

Spoke to Chrissy yesterday and mentioned your car, give him a shout.

Ross, not for something like that unfortunately.

No probs, cheers Mike.

I've dropped CMC an email to see if they can take it on, and can get it trailer doon.

So, it's all Mike's fault for posting a link to Chrissy's website, I spotted the bit that says he does remapping... 1 hour later I've got some different 1s and 0s and a load more torque.

Chrissy was great. Fitted me in at lunchtime in my break, and the car definitely feels quicker on the drive back. Feels really nice, in fact. Like OEM but a bit more.

Damn you, Mike! :D

your welcome :thumbsup

It's a nice set ups he has and he owns the unit so no rent to pay which means he can keep his hourly rate reasonable.

Robin has provided many a charged battery swap service on many trips.
And benefited from a few too! Also remember hijacking some crazy van driver in a service station to boost charge Egor after the alternator broke at Cadwell, but we drove it to Spa anyway and did less than an hour before it fell apart completely :-) We made it back from Spa to somewhere horrible in Kent before we had no more battery and gave up.

Post a summary of the issue and what's happened so far in technical (if not already sorted months ago ;-)) ... you never know I might have some ideas!
