I'm sure Martin is probably aware of these issues with todays climate in the motor trade Ginge.

just incase, you would be suprised the amount of TRADE people who get secondhand engines and then call us up when they cant get the cars to start
its happens ALOTMORE than you think
and its a pain in the arse at times too, volvo are worse though, everthing in there car is a fucking module, you cant even change the rear veiw mirror in some models without a software upgrade , just cause they fit a sensor for the alarm in the mirror
also electric window switches too are also modules
was trying to be helpful, im sure some people never new that
