thanks for the info. I figured that was the case. Kinda get what you pay for I suppose. I think it will help, because at least if I can get the diag tool to at least communicate with the car, I can then book it into the garage, and they will obviously have the proper kit. It will save me going...

Where is the usual place to buy it? I am unfamiliar with it. thanks

Sounds like this RAVE is something I need. How would I go about getting hold of a copy? thanks in advance

Hi, Fuse is ok, I’ve check all fuses I can find for pretty much everything. the contacts of the port are clean and look perfect. You will have to educate me a bit with regards to RAVE and topix ? Anyone have any opinions or advice on the “icarsoft” tool would be any good? Currently around...

thanks for all your advice. I want to keep it. Just trying to do what I can myself at this stage. At least find what the problem is then determine the cost to repair. Just hard at this stage without a firm idea of what it is.

yeah the injectors were tested via a leak off kit. It pointed to one injector significantly worse than others and another just close behind. I made the decision to change them all for a piece of mind that they are covered, and to be honest, by the time I got a decent trade in rate for the old...

Thanks for your message I brought the car with one key and the knowledge it didn’t work on the fob button. Apart from that it was all sound. I then purchase a new spare key as it only came with one, whilst I was at the main dealer they tried to pair both keys up, and the fobs wouldn’t...

I’m not sure. How would I go about testing a turbo ? Any ideas or thoughts ? thanks

that was my initial thought. Because I can live with central locking not working on the key, and also it not being able to work with a diagnostics tool. At least it can then be driven. However I’ve asked several mechanics to take a look for me, and they loose interest when I mention it doesn’t...

I have removed several trims and started to investigate, checking around modules and fuses etc, But haven’t seen any signs of damp as such. I would say the smoke is a light blue, so would point towards oil I suppose. I did discover the oil level was a fair way above the max line, so I drained...

thanks for the message I have researched a fair bit in to this regarding the sequence to pair the key etc. Main dealer couldn’t even do it, and suggested it could be a body control module under the passenger seat, but wouldn’t investigate further as the car diagnostics wouldn’t communicate...

Hi, I have a problem with large amounts of smoke coming from the exhaust, on idle and during driving. Possibly due to a result of over oiling. I can’t get the vehicle to communicate with a diagnostic tool to determine what is exactly wrong and what to fix. I have taken it to main dealer...
