Title: Driving like a Grandfather
Post by: Pitchfork on 30 July 2009, 18:36:52

Well I am one actually
Yesterday the Traktor broke down witha mystery ailment that the AA 'fixed' by bleeding the fuel line at the filter
They connected their loptop & read a fault (code 54)
No further problems today but it suddenly seems more responsive. Now I drive like the grandparent that I am, & I believe that the Gearbox is adaptive so may have got use to my style of driving
Would connecting up to the PC have reset the box ECU so that it no longer behaves like a geriatric but like a young turk??

I doubt they have more than a code reader, which can poss reset codes, but not reset ecu's.

More likely explanation would be you had air in the fuel or a partial blockage.....at a guess without knowing what the code means  :-/ If thats all the AA did was bleed the fuel pipe.....and now ur getting the full fix of fuel
