Default the scoob has to go.

right folks the time has come to drive my car off a cliff. Still got a check engine light one year on from trying to diagnose and running in limp mode ninety percent of the time. Completely lost interest now. If anyone wants it. Pm me. Dazza

unfortunately i'm a bit reluctant to fork out the best part of £800 on an ecu and map, on the of chance it might fix the issues.

deffo think diesel is the way to go, so will be looking at audi / bm.

also want to travel around france a bit and ramp up some leisure miles!!!!

i've got a few other options to try first, which might fix the outstanding issues, as i wouldn't really like to sell the car as it is.

might have to join Dave at the hairdressing academy!!!

Dont be such a gay.

Get the apexi, it will delete the cel. Get it mapped and smile again. At least its worth doing just to sell it. You wont get sod all for it as it is mate.

Crikey, the non-scooby owning table at the Lodge is going to need extra seats...

You're just having a rough patch at the moment, fix the CEL and you'll remember how much fun the car is. Trouble is it's been winter and we haven't had that many chances to get out and drive the cars properly. Now it's getting lighter your love for the car will slowly come back.

He'll be alright once he gets the CEL fixed mate. Cant be that much to sort out.

Sod it, buy a stacked STI7 and transplant the lot, engine, box, diffs brakes etc.

Awesome,. only gotta look at Essexboy30s car to see how much of a good package that little lot is
