I would rather pay an expert on here to come out to see the car than some random guy, Kevin can you come out
The eml light is on, im assuming the eml light is the car with a spanner in it?

Guys, recent events have led me not to be able to use the car 
Iv had a guy out who could not wire up to the ECU and communicate with it (?)
So the car just turns and does not start. Its had a new ign module and it worked perfectly. Iv had a new recon ecu sent to me along with a new immobiliser unit (the part that goes on to the ign barrel)
The mechanic came out again and still could not connect to it
Im stumped. The car is just sat there and wasting away and i really miss driving it
Any ideas?

Also the AA man a couple more people have said it could be the immob. I always take the AA with a pinch of salt... hence me asking on here

Hi all
My car is not starting at all, first strange thing that happened was the radio has gone into a safe mode and the car will not start. All i can see is the car with a spanner light on and it wont fire up
any ideas?

Update!
New sleeves put in, i have used sealent and cleaned things up.
Its doing some strange things: it doesnt run on 3 cylinders all of the time only when you put ur foot down fast it misses, steering has been going heavy and light, then at one point the oil light came on it went tick tick tick then steering went really heavy, then it went back to normal!
White smoke hasnt stopped...i think i need to take it to a garage...

update and pics!
no smoke from side of manifold anymore, white smoke still there its looking like it could be the coil module, have a look it seems like the internals could be burnt out?
slight tear
Have a look at the exposed metal on the sides
