I can’t believe I’ve not had a set up until now Ian!!
So are 107 for pre-facelift but still the best
Ooohh! I’m cut to the quick Martin.enuff_zed said:bigwinn said:IRD said:My favourite wheels Stuart. They look great on the Coupe. Very like the ones I had on my silver E85 from NM Autosport.

Some progress.
Parts arrived from Barry meaning I could put the front end back together.
Parts arrived from eBay meaning I still can’t put the aircon back together. Grrr
Still have the roof/wipers issue. Next step to diagnose that is to unplug the wiper motor. I also have no lights on the hvac panel apart from rear demister.
But I got underneath the car again and rechecked all bolts were tight. Exhaust is on and good. Attached the braces at the rear, front xenon leveller (new) attached. Popped the wheels back on as we have some light fingered visitors in the area. A couple of wheel arch liners on too.
Tomorrow is my birthday and I got the best present ever- IT STARTED AND RAN!!!!!!
So pleased. The exhaust sounded good and no engine lights (still have a load of others on the dash to sort.)
So next I’m going to get the brakes back on, the system bled and clutch bled so I can move it
A few pics
Cheers

Well, given the chap had already chopped out the ABS/DSC module as the kit he was going to build wasn't having ABS, then my guess would be the sensor was stuck so he chopped the loom instead.bigwinn said:
He obviously hadn't been told that the sensor that side fed the speedo too.
Some good progress today (I think)
Fitted the right carpet to the boot (duh) so it now sits properly on the blue tooth area. That feels better.
Fixed the boot lock- the pins in the socket were totalled so a new one sorts that- interestingly the boot lights won’t work until the unit is plugged in. But that’s another one off the list.
The hvac issue was (wait for it) transport mode. So that’s another ticked off!!!
Chasing the other electrical issues, I unplugged the wiper motor as it’s working as the roof is trying to move (!). Motor unplugged and nothing works (windows/roof etc) so I am thinking it’s a k-bus issue or wire earth, over an earthing issue.
I think I’ve found the k-bus terminal point. This is going to be painful!!!
Did a full ista scan- it’s basically saying it can’t talk to a load of modules
Next steps are we need to get the brakes on and the system including the clutch bled, so I can move the car
Thank goodness for a long bank holiday weekend eh

That concurs with issues I've had.bigwinn said:
One module corrupted and it upsets everything else on the kbus so the software cant see it.
For each module with a code, you can disconnect that and see if the others wake up.
When that happens the disconnected one is the culprit.
