Thanks, In my book, it would be most important to get any hesitations and delays sorted, before resorting to any degree of mapping.

Welcome Adrian, Opinions will understandably vary, but there is a strong line of thought pointing to ‘ map these cars at your peril’. Before being concerned about making it go faster, attention should be paid to its past service history, mileage, and the intervals between services. Regards, Gareth.

Welcome Nick, If we can help we will. Regards, Gareth.

Di you find more Peter?

Have you got a copy of the advert George, and how long did the owner say he had owned it?

Welcome George, Did you buy this car from a dealer, or was it a private sale? Regards, Gareth.

A Google search should come up with more. Hope the forum is being of help to you Peter. Regards, Gareth.

Where have you looked so far then Peter? Have you also registered your ‘want’ on some of the online car breaker link sites?

Many thanks for joining Eric. You are very welcome. Regards, Gareth.

Search LLL Parts website Peter. Please let us know how you get on. Regards, Gareth.

Welcome Owen, and thanks for joining. I’m sure a couple of owners will be along soon to guide you with your queries. Regards, Gareth.

As said a year ago Colin. If they are original fitment then just look where I advised you to last year. If they weren’t an available and acceptable fitment - good luck with your insurance. Regards, Gareth.

As has been suggested - just replace it with a quality branded one, get it recoded, and just don’t bother to get it retested elsewhere, but worth getting the alternator output checked. Regards, Gareth.

Thanks Paul, Never heard of that brand - let’s hope it turns out good - and lasts. I don’t go for good deals (cheap) on quality-critical batteries, but aim to get respected brands at competitive prices. Regards, Gareth.

I would really like to think that perhaps reactions around rudeness might be as a result of cultural differences, rather than individual personalities. However, if I’m wrong, I will consider closing this thread. Regards, Gareth.
