So ... after spending my entire day in the train yesterday for nothing, I felt today for the TD5!

What convinced me is that it's virtually rust free. Oh and I ordered the Nanocom codes as well...

You can fix the ABS/ HDC/ (can't remember the third light) lights coming on by taking the front off the ABS unit and bypassing two of the connections with direct wires:

Looks like the part may not cost much, but as above this MAY NOT fix it as it can be a poor connection in the plug that can cause it.

Thanks Calum! Thumbs Up

I don't have the car yet, currently waiting for the seller to do the French equivalent of an MOT required for the sale, hoping that nothing major will come up...

Meanwhile, I have purchased the Nanocom codes for the TD5 (both EMS And Disco 2 systems) so I'll be able to tell as soon as I can get my hands on the Disco... Fingers crossed! Smile

Love the engine noise of the Td5. Throttle off and get that double engine note. Lovely things.
