Scanned it and it came back with 4 codes!

2 were cleared and haven't returned and the other two are:

00513 - Engine Speed Sensor (G28)

00525 - Oxygen (Lambda) Sensor (G39)

My car isn't running abnormally though.

I understand the Oxygen sensor as when i start my car up the MFA resets it's self on the MPG part. It wasn't the best when i put on the CAT anyway lol

Does anyone know what the engine speed sensor one is about though?  :huh:

Did you scan the car with the engine off? Try it again with the engine running & the speed sensor code should disappear :wink:

I've only just picked it up from the post office!  :shocked: :grin:

Give me some time ladies, will get it done over the weekend.

Also the lovely Girlfriend bought me some more suade to get my headlining done.
