Ummm, dunno about anyone with a tech2 nearby, As for the idle, its fine when warm, even after 30 secs of high revs starting with the cas unplugged it ticks over ok when its plugged back in again. It stutters a bit threatening to go, but just doesnt want to 'catch'

Grrr, F**king diesels!

Is the earth wire to the engine ok.
Try putting a direct earth to the ecu from the battery(use a jump lead and clip it to the metal casing of the ecu and the other end to the negative).

Cheers mate, will do, got to go and rescue my 2.0 wagon from storage 1st tonight!

Whats the round thing above the ecu with 2 wires going into it by the way?

They detect High temp in the ecu and shut the car down if the ecu gets to hot.
Ive never seen one do this yet

Just got home, after my old 2.0 failed to start after I was dropped off at it, to then get a train and lift to work to then have this not start, its going up for sale tomorrow, It would be an awesome car, but I just dont have the time, money or any more patience for it especially as I am relying on it for my new job... gutted.

Dunno what its worth, but know what it (bloody well!) owes me!
