Sorry mate, had to be said.



Indeed Mr Kevin. You end up needing someone to use a bit of magic to help you out.

I doubt I will, it's all good though.

Micky, I wouldn't exactly say it was hushed up. After the first guy from Green Flag came out and spent an hour standing and looking around before coming up with the suggestion I chuck a brick through the window, I actually posted on the forum asking if anyone knew how to break into an ST.

That's why I keep my keys in my pocket when fiddling around in the boot. Never drop your keys into the boot while looking around in there ...or the Chris situation will happen but glad you got it sorted though mate!
I do have a second electric key fob key so I'm saaaafe!

Well... I do have a second key (albeit not a remote one, but it would have still got me in). The trouble was it was 200 miles away at the time!

Stevethewhizz is definitely a whizz! I think he's solved the sensor's heat issue!
He showed me a picture of his 2nd sensor and I see mountune have put a nice little sock over his! lol I think he's solved it!

I must get something like that for mine!
This must protect the sensor from heat from the CAT and then you get a custom remap to tell the sensor about the emissions! success! light off!

Little update. I think I may need to get my Engine Light sorted sooner rather than march because I've never noticed it till this cold weather but while running the car and digging it out with a shovel from the snow, me and my fiancé can smell how rich it is coming out of the exhaust and it can choke you after a while. I hope my CAT isn't buggered

Any help?
