I would advise against BBA following a recent issue with an ecu that they repaired (came back worse than when it went and they were not overly interested)......and you can get it done cheaper than them

A recommendation of some one you have used would be great  ;) :y

Anyone live near the Wirral that can help me on a couple of problems.
(1)
I have Fld Vision coming up on he display, I have checked the arms on the sensors they are OK and still connected I also lubricated the swivel arms as one was a bit tight.
(2)
Abs and Traction control lights are on and have lost the speedo. I have cleaned the rear ABS sensors as best I could using white spirit on the faces.
Do you think I need to remove them and do a better job and are there ABS sensors on the front wheels?

Finally  maybe if someone who is local ish to me and has got tech 2 could help me determine if sensors are giving out correct signals etc.
 Please PM me  if you can help. :y
 The miggy is of the road until I can isolate the main problems, re MOT :( :( :(

Had this on the Estate (has passed 2 mots like that) - will be either the sensors on nearside front and rear or levelling motors back of each headlight OR as I discovered today a broken wire from front sensor!!  Touch wood that seems fixed now - no fault codes either.

There are abs sensors on front wheels.
Agree with others knackered abs ecu mate  :(

I think the car will pass MOT with the head lights as they don't seem to low.

Will check the ABS sensors on the front tommorrow.
I think the speedo is run off the rear inside ABS sensor I will check that a again at the same time. :y :y

Yes rear nearside for speedo!

Wouldnt it be easier and cheaper to buy an ECU from one of the breakers on here ? :-/

Yup thats what i did!  Get one same part nº from same year, model and spec and it should work out of the box - ie no need for Tech2 session.
