Car been at the dealers for a while now and whilst they've been working on it the battery has been disconnected. Hoping to pick it up tomorrow and wondering if the ECU will have reset due to this and if so, what do I need to do (ie drive slowly for a while or just drive normal?)

Thanks

It will have reset and you shouldnt rag it. Drive it carefully building up the levels of boost that you use. The advice above to thrap the car is poor an will lead to (possibly massive) detonation and then maxium ignition retardation.

As the dealers are currently road testing it do you think they'll be aware of the need to take it easy initially - getting paranoid now, I know!

 

I would hope that they will be careful. If you dont trust them then insist on an accompanied road-test.
