Re: another noob
Well at least posts are working - maybe contribute a few more and priviledges may open up (not sure how it works, sorry).
But you're in the right place so welcome!

Re: another noob
Well I've just read forrest's post under Electrical ... very useful. And proves he's now a fully-fledged member!
Welcome.
BTW: £60 is quite a lot for a diagnostic code read. There are member on here (possibly) and on PeugeotForums that have PP2000 (Peugeot Planet) the auto guy mentioned and only charge half that. But needs must!!!

Re: another noob
£60 is about the trade going rate using genuine diagnostics. I have £££££££££ invested in diagnostic equipment which sooner or later needs updating / replacing. It all needs paying for. Also auto electrician came out to the car. I think it was fair.
