    Erase those codes then read again after a drive cos nothing in the live data log seems wrong as to trigger such codes but if they come back the ECU defaults to a limited fuelling protocol and then it's normal to be powerless

    I'm glad it was so easy ;) ... now start to make some economy and when you'll afford buy a second fob too cos that's the way to get rid of stress when it comes to a D2 immobiliser wise

    Just an eBay special to see if it worked. France? I’m not entirely sure the range on these is THAT good!

    It’s fixed!! It was an issue with the actual remote fob itself. I bought a new fob, coded in absolutely fine. Lesson learnt to not put off buying a second key fob. Thanks all for your help!

    Dont do that but you can unplug the ambient air temp sensor under the grill then the aircon fan will permanently run and help cooling a bit, the aircon will work normally except the outside temp display

    Running a slightly weaker mix of coolant will also help

    With the PEL500110 mine ended up hotter on a long run than with the original i presume cos the bypass spring is soft only the 100900 made it run cooler a bit

    It's a huge offer all over the place, google out PEM100990 but if you want a reliable one use LR suffix for it

    Replace or clean the filter, the red light usually has to do with lack of hydraulic pressure for some reason though there should be a fault code anyway unless it's an `ECU misbehaviour

    +1 for that ^^^ with the addendum that nanocom is not reliable with the fault code.... foxwell might do the job better and as long as there are no leaks and good fluid activity in the tank you can drive it with R14 removed without fear

    You'll have to try with another fob cos it might send the RF signal but not the code and if that fails too the problem is the BCU, no way to know exctly which of them is making tricks without trying

    According to that log the overboost limit was raised with the remap cos there are moments when MAP is around 250KPa and AAP around 98 which means that the boost is 152KPa(1.52 bar) while the factory overboost limit is at 1.42bar... based on that...

    In a very strange way it can be connected if the problem comes from the BCU which affects them all, you'll have to see the stored fault code in the autobox ECU but as long as it didnt affect anything the M +S can be a sign of weak battery too...

    I've seen a few with blocked exhaust/catalyst but none of them got more than 350-400 kg/hr air flow while this one has arund 550 that's why the MAP/boost reading is more relevant

    You keep insisting on the air flow reading but what's the MAP(or turbo boost) value at that air flow? better attach the inputs fuelling log somehow to see the whole thing cos you can't compare a manual's readings with an auto... do they both have...
