Yes, I know, the NA/FI thing has nothing to do with the current fault but I'm just going to dump this here anyway.

Does a bear Shi.........
You get the jist, yes, yes I am.
You still haven't said what's wrong so kind of proving my point.
You're also keeping the cryptic name running very well.

No I just thought you might like a guess as my initial thought (at being 99.9% certain) was wrong!

That is shocking. Either VERY bad luck or the Stealers have screwed you over. That's not very nice for you cryptic. Actually gutted for you.

It's very bad luck.....I have been all over that car while it has been in the dealers and have seen the whole gearbox fitting and all has been approved by me on each stage. I would rather it failed now while I am or was running the gearbox in than after. I have been told that its a rare failure. But guess what........ Steering rack is on back order, ohh I love Rs tax :bash:
Car is now sat on dealers ramp until after Christmas as I don't know when it will arrive :(
Looks like early jan is going to be expensive :(
