Cheers for the comments guys, only had the car two weeks. Had a few teething problems, went to pick the car up from 90 miles away, then it broke down, had to tow it 70 miles on a rope over pennines!
Turned out to be coil, all running now.
Then found water leak on intercooler, all sorted now!
Turned up boost to 11psi, exhaust blowin! Thats sorted now.
Then the central locking decided not to work, and car is fully delocked.
Tried gettin my hand through window and it shattered! Then central locking started working straight away!
Its my first rs and its like im cursed! 1 thing after another!
Goin to pick window up from leeds today.
Im after a new actuator anyone?
