Thanks for all the info folks :)
Had a mate plug it in today and 2 faults found both relating to tb
The butterfly isn't closing properly on idle and at first he couldn't get it to accept the reset ? After 4 attempts it reset the idle and all was good however just noticed it's crept back up not much though !

Spoke to rtech today and chap I spoke to seems confident it can be cured so fingers crossed I haven't killed me throttle body , and all being well Friday remapp will be done :)
Thanks again folks

even if your still having an issue with your t/b mate it won't affect your car being re-mapped as r-tech give your car a good check over before any map is loaded to your obd port for the engine ecu and any issues corrected if possible as they already know of your problem i'll guarantee nick will sort it :afro: the guy you spoke to would be rob or pip  :wink: they will sort you out mate  :smiley:
good luck with your map you'll have a big grin on friday :afro:

i had a problem with the butterfly previously on mine as it was only part open on full throttle. just adjusted it and all was good, got the power back.

yours will be fine mate.
