Just download RAVE and follow the instructions. Some people on forums are best not to follow.

Yes that is the map sensor, mass air pressure.
with that unplugged the engine runs on a base setting with no fueling adjustment for the extra air from the turbo and will be very sluggish and almost die with lots of throttle applied

You may want to remove the EGR valve and clean it. Make sure return spring is sound. Then refit and push a blocker down the vac hose and refit it to EGR valve. That way all looks normal but EGR function is disabled.
Binding brake probably slide pins and a good bleed required (as per RAVE). ABS/TC: which of the 3 amigos is on and does it stay on above 5mph?
When she comes back as a fail, I'll use RAVE as a reference for a full bleed. It is just the ABS and TC light thankfully, not the three amigos. Hopefully it is just a sensor but I'm feeling ECU might be goosed. The pump runs fine, sort of. It spins up for around 6 seconds at start up and then back on again after every 2 or 3 presses.

Check your brake light switch is set correctly as to Rave they are known to put the abs tc lights on.

Drivers door handle is replacement unit blooming potch. At MartyUK possibly?
I'll post pictures of the drivers door handle in its own thread to try separate all these issues in to their own areas. That way I can update each fix as they come through and other people might be helped with any issues I sort? The plastic clip on the drivers handle is still intact and so I think it may have just come loose inside the door card? Possibly some steel wire might reconnect the rod to the handle?

Mine passed the MOT last week with the most obvious EGR blank I've ever seen.

Because in practice it will make no difference. My P38 doesn’t have EGR - passes emissions same as the rest

Because at the moment, the MOT only requires a smoke test. Soon to change if you don't leave the EUBecause in practice it will make no difference. My P38 doesn’t have EGR - passes emissions same as the rest

Nooooo!
Well, 4 days in and the garage have given up on my MOT it seems. Their Snap On diagnostic tool isn't talking to my ABS ecu and so they are just giving me an instant fail. Cue lots of googling and forum searching to find why the ecu isn't talking to their tool and find how to fix this.

The P38 is not OBD compliant.
